I bought one of these a while ago an intended on fitting it but first a mate wanted to see it, now he reckons he'll be able to knock one up a piece of cake but using mild steel instead to keep it cheap.
Now i dont want to step on any toes or break any laws is this bit of kit patented.

Thanks in advance Mat

Its his hard work that went into it...

Tel your mate to make a small change to the design. Job done. Any one can bend and weld tube.

I have now emailed big jym, well my mate is under the impression this is going to be a piece of cake and is going to knock one up for me to trial so mine will then be up for grabs, but there after i think he wants to make more.
Dont shoot me down as I am just the messenger.

£170 doesnt seem as bad as the £219 they are for sale in the club shop, well there sold out now but my mate is thinking of knocking a few up an looking at about £130 i think, dependant upon cost an time which he'll know when hes made a few.
