I emailed him and he was nice enough to call me back. He has a couple of videos on youtube. Thanks, Ganma7
I saw that same video. and looking at it. I made something that works for me (at least as much as I know what works) in two sizes The big one uses PVC pipe, and the small one uses wooden doll rods and eye hooks. The ends are just thin pieses of plywood. a few pics to show you might help. Total cost for both was well under $50.00

3' long to do small items
