Default Anyone ever thought of this?

I'm thinking about making my own SFC. They look to be a basic design that could be copied easily. I would think you could make a set way cheaper than buying some. My dad is a very good welder & I think if I could get some exact dimensions & make a set of prints in Autocad, he could make a set. I would think all you would need would be some boxed steel & a small plate of either 3/8" or 3/4" thick steel.

If anyone on here has ever done this successfully please chime in.

Ok, this project is underway. I should have a full set of fabrication prints by tomorrow. The prints will possibly be available after I have my first set completed.
