Default Has anyone here made thier own traction bars, I know someone has???

Im about to try to make some, just a simple design, nothing extreme. Ive looked at a bunch of designs and read up on the geometry and it really doesnt look that hard. Has anyone tried to make some, I searched and didnt come up with anything. I priced the stuff Ill need and it will only cost like $50-60 for materials. I would do a writeup but I dont have a camera anymore so I cant take pics. Is it a good idea? I dont have $$$ to buy some or I would cause I get REALLY bad wheelhop on launches. Anybody can feel free to chime in with ideas or tips that you might have. Ive obviously never made any before I was hoping someone has... I think the full race design is ideal, the way the tabs and brackets are lined up seem the best to me.

I figured it out and bought all the materials already. If I had any money right now Id just buy some from you, at least in my college class I can work on my own car and make stuff like traction bars...haha
