70runner, that's nice! I think I'll try making my own. I bought a welder years ago and have yet to use it. I'll make this my first welding project. If it doesn't work I'll use wood. I can get plenty of good, used pieces of wood for free. Thanks.
Makes a great welding project. Mine is actually an adaptation of a commercial product I was able to take measurements on. Here it is in final checkout before 440 break-in run.

As said they are pricey. I'd make one with square tubing & bolt it together & some of it will need to be welded & truck it to a welder or pay him to come to you if he has a portable welder. You'll still come out way ahead plus the personal satisfaction of having done it yourself
