Here are my nearly complete plans. I built mine from this.
I used those very plans as the basis for mine - which I just came in from working on my car on (not that you would know, mine turned out pretty different).
Buying a twirler is going to cost you bank. Mine was ~$250 for all the parts to make it. 2 engine stands from HF (the cheap $30 ones) and some steel from a local steel yard, nuts and bolts and casters from the local hardware store.
Heres mine. The orange bits are from the chopped up engine stands.
You will notice the the uprights are slanted out and then go up. This is due to the fact that the engine stands are on an outward slant. When I chopped them, I took this into account and squared them off for the rest of the vertical rise.
