I made one with a group of kids about 15yrs ago for a rockgym we use. Got Mt Ash dowel at Bunnings, drilled holes at ends, 6mm cord, overhand knots, pulled tight off car bumper in driveway. Still going strong. Used the Mt. Ash because it was in a commercial gym, but overkill for home. Made one many, many years ago out of pvc drainpipe and an old climbing rope.
Good for killing your elbows! But anything Bachar came up with has to be cool. Try to avoid drinking with groups of climbers near it, although that can be entertaining, too!
