    I ended up getting a foldable saka, but this post by @Naturarbo got my attention... https://www.masterblasterhome.com/threads/knee-ascender-again.28368/ I want to try to make something like this for my secondary truck kit. For footloops, I like the way this one looks. I'll probably get it if...

Looks like you could assemble something functional for $100 tops using premade components of US or Euro manufacture. Even...
