The closest I've gotten to DIY espresso is EspressoForge: https://espressoforge.com/

Man I’d love to get this semi-affordably in Europe. Such a cool product. I use a Cafelat Robot for my morning brew and it’s consistently the highlight of my day. Manual espresso rules

I don't really see the advantage compared to your Cafelat Robot, or a Flair.

Espresso forge has even fewer moving parts, and no rotating bearing surfaces or arms that can snap. The moving part is a stainless steel rod with two EPDM o-rings on the moving surface. It will last several centuries given a supply of o-rings. The basket mating surface has a silicone gasket which lasts forever if you store the device in pieces after cleaning up the coffee grounds.
