Mike,
I've built several of them. They are very forgiving, so likely all of the
dimensions you have found would work fine. I used a program called moxgen to
build mine that was sent to me by L.B. Cebik. I used 1/2" copper pipe to make
a couple this way, and they performed very well. (although they were very
heavy...)
Currenty, I use a Par Stressed Moxon. It seems to perform just as well as the
home brew moxons, and weighs next to nothing.
Have fun!
Dan
