Production of these kind sof things are done with jigs. All the time goes into setting up the jig (potentially days), then banging them out ain't so hard at all. Doing a one off with clamps would require a lot of patience. Unless you just have a burning desire to do one yourself, and you have the tools/time, if there's one close to what you want for $200(!!) that's a slam dunk economic calculation for me.
After a little research buying is the way to go... I designed and will build the top half out of wood and buy the bottom from bajawagons.com.
