          Its really not all that impressive. It's very Simple and effective. He just got a piece of plate and cut 3/4 the way through the plate 3 inches in around the outside and bent it up.(After further review I don't know if he cut through the plate before bending it. But, that is a method you could use for doing it yourself.) Then welded the seems. And drilled some holes in it.

                  Sorry, should I have said it really not that difficult to make instead of impressive. It was just the first thing that came to my mind when typing. I wasn't trying to sound cocky.

                    May be true, but it's still simple, effective, and appears to be pretty damn strong.
