I made mine from 3/16 Solid Rod and MIG Welded. Cost about 10 cents a Foot. I believe I used almost 20t or so. I used a Vise and a Hammer to make all my bends.
Here's Mine.


I made the Yellow hoop first. The built the top half followed by the Bottom half. Added my Braces, handles, and Front Stinger. All in that order. Seemed to just flow together.
