rollover jig

Sensible to Cam advises i would prefer to have a rollover jig to roll the car. They are too expensive to buy and to reimport so i would be pleased to know if it's possible to do one myself.

Is it possible?
Someone did it?
How to do that? (plans, pictures... welcome!)

Scratch it is not a problem as the next work is the paintjob.

Did someone use this way? Is everyone ok with Cam or has somebody advise to do it carrefully?
