I have some novice welding skills, but how much money can I save by doing this?
.....
For those that made their own, do the 4 holes drilled on the face and/or the 2 holes in the base need to be threaded? If so, what did you use to do that? Also, I have scrap 4"X4"X3/16" steel tube that I hope to use. Any problems with that idea?

I had one made up locally asim in the UK and fitted the hydro-pneumatic head - so silent and effortless dimpling and i also used it for perfect back riveting as the frame was so stiff there was no flex.
I love it!
I am a novice welder with a Miller Autoset 180 MIG machine. I made mine out of scrap 3" x 5" x 0.25" and 2.5" x 2.5" x 0.25" tubing that I bought for $0.25/lb. I think I have about $10 in it before the powder coating, but I would have to weigh it to be sure. Definitely, build your own.
