Prowler or Sled?

I know there are several DIY enthusiasts here so I was wondering if any one of you folks have built your own prowler or sled for power work? If so, got any tips? I was thinking of knocking up a simple dragging sled out of some ply and timber.

Here's a link to the 'Prowler Challenge' by Jim Wendler:

Sounds like fun!

Just made one - with detachable weight post & 'horns' I'll post picks soon ...basic construction is:

450x6thk plate x 600 Lg with last 150mm bent-up at 45degrees, this leading edge has 3 holes for attaching ropes/chains etc.
3 M24 nuts - one central on the upper face of the 450sq base for the weight post; the other 2 are towards the rear corners for the horns.
The weight post is an M24 HD bolt with the head sawn off, the horns jus' plain ol' HD bolts.

cost £0, fun - priceless

Best comment "...it sparks!"
 
Excellent DM! I thought you'd be da man. So you didn't need to do any welding? I'd like to see some pics.
 
Thanks DM, it looks just the job. How are you finding sled workouts?
 
would you believe it I aint had time to train with it yet!
I'm waiting for this dude (bro-in-law) to come back off his hols - he hasn't seen the sled yet...
