I was going to make my own tower. I found a company call Sharpe Products http://www.sharpeproducts.com/ that sells pre-bent elbows and other parts in various sizes of steel and aluminum. Had a CAD drawing of what I was going to build and then came across a cheap powder coated aluminum tower with speaker can and wake board rack for far less than I could build one. Check out their site if you are thinking about building one.
