On this product people are going to want holes drilled and I think a "D" shape hole for the DB type connector. The holes would allow easy clamping but in a two step operation. If I were making these I'd first clamp the stock over a pair of 123 blocks, mill the holes, then after I hade a batch of these made, hole the holes to hold the part a fixture and then mill the edges.
But that said, I could make a pair of these by hand with hack saw, file and drill press in about 15 minutes.
