Rearsets for an R1200S on a tight budget

Hey Guys,
I hope someone can help, as some know, I do several track days and have been struggling lately with my footpegs being too low and forward, I need them back and up.
I have been checking Ebay and many local stores but thanks to our currency here being rather weak a set of rearsets is completely unaffordable at this stage unless I skip riding for a whole year.
Anyway, here is the question, has anyone had a set made? Will billet aluminium be fine?
I have checked and can afford some offcuts which I could take to a friend with a CNC to make for me, he says he just needs a design though as he doesn't have the time to draw one up at the moment.
Where could I get a design that they could use to cut, is there a template somewhere?
Other options are used, are there bikes with similar rear sets that I could look at and possibly modify?
This is really a shot in the dark, so please don't hang me
Your help will be appreciated.
