It took me 1/2 hr, but I think I found the help you need. It is a book that will tell you how to build one. It costs $11.99. Worth the price I would think to avoid making mistakes. When you get to the site, look for the search box and enter the item number…3TB0102 .
Any decent lumberyard should have that. They should also be able to suggest different things as what is best for your project. Check your yellow pages.
