Still looking... somebody has to have an extra box. Even if not located in Texas, I am interested!

I don't have very much money to spend, but my metal fab. teacher said I could make one. Does anybody have detailed plans on how to build one.

I was going to suggest that you build one. I built ours when I was in high school.

One thing to remember if you build a box - the top back edge of the plant box must be SMOOTH !!!!! I had a box that had a rough weld (splatter) on the top back edge and this was like a saw blade on the pole vault poles !!! Be sure to (grind) polish this edge smooth or you will be damaging your poles.
