If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I made a similar one - a triangle of ali plate, 6" or so of ali rod, and the business end of a Sierra internal mirror. Dead easy, mostly done
with a drill press, hacksaw and file (but the drill press bit could be done with an ordinary electric drill, if you're careful.
If you're interested I'll post a piccy (but it's not a lot different than Mark's).
The metal came from a scrap box, the mirror cost me £2 in a scrappy, plus the cost of some etch primer and a can of satin black. A lot cheaper than
£100, and I think it looks very respectable!
