Build vs Buy? [LMB]

Ok, so I have a full machine shop at my disposal. Hooray!
I've got a frame that's currently a cube 2 feet on a side. Oversized I'm sure, but this is Ver 0.1a and I'm just learning.
Are commercial off the shelf thrusters crazy more expensive than what you can build out of bilge pumps? If it's only three to five times as expensive to buy and saves time, I'm cool with just spending the money. If it's ridiculously expensive then I suppose I'll just have to learn.
