Woa!!!, $170 is the price at bintel, didnt realise they are so dear!!!

The telescopes-astronomy website seem ok. Have emailed them for a price.

I think I will most likely make the spider myself, we have 2mm and 3mm stainless steel at work. What are the usual thicknesses for the spider vanes in larger dobs? Is 2mm plate overkill?
