I built my own boards and mast because I didn't want to go to the expense of commercial ones. They work great! I made the boards from a redwood plank from Lowes. The mast is a chain link fence post. The reels are my own design and made from aluminum. I have a lathe which helped make the reels look nice but anyone with some patience and a moderate amount of skill could reproduce them with a band saw and a drill. They each have a crank and a friction clutch. If there is any interest I could post some pictures.
