I have made about ten and are pretty easy to make, I used pieces around the garage that I had. I have not got any pictures of them but I will get some up tomorrow.
There is a diagram on here www.mig-welding.co.uk

How to make:
Cut a slit down the centre of a 25x25mm box section with a 1.5mm cutting disk
Posted Image
Measure 2cm lengths
Posted Image
Cut the box section and then mark centre for a hole
Posted Image
Drill a 6.5 mm hole in the centre
Posted Image
Then Drill at an angle inline with the slot, so the bolt can be inserted
Posted Image
Cut a groove in a bolt for the metal to slot in
Posted Image
mark out a 20mm wide by 25mm long on a piece of metal
Posted Image
chop off the bolt head and cut metal
Posted Image
Put the metal in the slot then weld together
Posted Image
file the bolt and drill a 6.5mm hole in the metal for the round bar to slot in
Posted Image
Cut 6mm round bar or a bolt about 2cm long
Posted Image
Fix together
Posted Image
Posted Image
Posted Image
Dont weld the round bar like on the welding forum as you need to be able to remove them.
