Hi Jeff

There are many, it all depends on what you want to do and how much of a
radial system you want.

The easy one that comes to mind is  https://tinyurl.com/y7ydu5wj

I have used aluminum siding in the past works well, takes time and work
to connect it together. 

There are many others that have done this with their 3 or 4 etc squares
antennae too.
