I haven't thought about it, quite frankly. It serves my own special
purpose. If there is any kind of general interest out there I could see
about tooling up to make several to lower cost. They are not at all
difficult or expensive to manufacture. I dare say I could have them made
and sell them for about what I paid for the PM-MTob adapter, or quite
possibly even less.

The down side is, the piece I made is replaces an insert to a lens mount
adapter I already had. This particular adapter requires an insert that has
a reverse 15º bevel on the camera side that fits in a 49.5mm hole in the
body of the adapter which is then secured with three small screws @ 120º.
I don't necessarily have a resource for the OM bayonet mount portion.
Those would be $$$$ to produce unless someone has a line on them, or can
get a bunch of used ones that are all identical. Otherwise each insert
would have to be custom fit to the individual adapter and would be
accordingly more expensive.

If there is an interest, and a resource can be found for a common OM
bayonet adapter, I would be willing to produce these to just cover cost,
what little effort and time that is spent, and shipping.
