as a kid in the '80s my local welder made them from scrap angle-iron!
i wish i knew where mine is buried in my parents shed, even though i
have a tripod! only good in sand though. if you get one made make
sure you have a small bedding step to drive it into the sand.
downside, it will be heavy and only hold one rod.
