Shall I make the prototype myself? / Some good, trusted companies in the U.K?

[Sully David]

So, I think I've thought of an invention after following the advise in Un-scripted - (when you notice a problem / predicament / something that doesn't exist yet, then ACT!)

The invention(product) is fairly simple in design (with range options) and I imagine easy to manufacture and produce - also good value for money.

The product is made out of plastic and I believe a prototype to see the workability and sturdiness of this product would be easy to make at home.
Obviously, if and when this gets taken to market I will need a 'proper' prototype - can anyone recommend good prototype makers in the U.K?
Should I wait and just get the 'proper' prototype done professionally?
Or, should I build the product myself - to my best ability and test the market through the channels of eBay / Local etc?

Any help would be fantastic and greatly appreciated
