Update: I have worked the last two weekends welding up the structure for the injection molding machine. The frame is complete, I am wiring and plumbing it with air this week. I am still waiting for the heater element and injection nozzle to be delivered, hopefully this week. I also need to order the plastic pellets but that is not a long lead-time item.

I still need a valve to control the main air ram if someone has one!

The CAD file for the part is complete. I have given the go-ahead to the mold builder to make it, but that is not going as fast as I would like. I expect this to be three weeks unfortunately so everything will be dependent on when I receive the mold.
