Im just getting an idea if I should just buy all these parts or get them machined.

The programming cost up front might be somewhat expensive but if you anticipate repeated runs it will probably pay for itself. Have them quote multiple quantities and work out the break even point. If you think you're going to want more in the future the cheapest way will definately be to have them all made at the same time, saves on setup costs.
