not if you've got some woodworking skills, you can construct an approximation quite cheaply.

i have a rectangular board with thick dowel rods fixed in each corner, i have another board with holes in each corner which slides down the dowels. for weight/pressure i have a series of catering size tins of tomatoes and a 25 litre drum filled with water.

i had to buy the dowel and some varnish, it cost a few quid to make

Theirs a few pics of examples of some made that have been posted. 2 thick pieces of the same size wood with a drill bit with the dowel size and drill the 4 holes
