instead of asking for one you can always earn the money to buy it and ask your dad then or you can buy a sick rail from sickrails.com. if that doesnt work but rail instead of rails

Ummm, disregard all above suggestions besides the angle iron.

Instead of building a rail you could build a box. If you was to search google it would give you plenty of plans, and they are not very expensive/hard to make.
If you want a rail... don't buy it. It's a ****ing rip off. I'm assuming you don't know how to weld so it would be hard for you to make one, but maybe you have other family who can weld. If not do what I did when I was younger, take a 2x4 and put angle iron on both sides. Then prop it up however you feel would work. Don't go out buying any rails though.

i suggest getting a flatbar if you make one.
