Uh...I guess you could make it yourself but buying the DVD has several advantages. First, you get a lot of routines, methods etc which you probably wouldn't be able to think up. Second, it credits Sankey for the idea. And third, I think that a handmade gimmick wouldn't be as strong or reliable as one you have bought.

Of course, if you already own the DVD and are just thinking of replacing the gimmick, then ignore the last paragraph :). I heard that Sankey was having some trouble a while ago with a bad design of ring that kept breaking - I would get in touch with him if yours has broken.
