I know it is easy to make one but I don't have spare materials right now. I have just used most of the parts of pallet I had.
As I am wanting one soon I am thinking maybe better to get one bought.
Although the other alternative to using scrap parts is to make myself but with new materials. I make this distinction because making one from cobbled bits means it is harder to get the lines toe match up and wanting something to keep rodents off it.
This is where store bought would be easier as I would just have to think about the bottom rather than the whole structure. Had thought to use some rodent mesh on the floor so they would not be able to climb up and in. Not so bad if they have a nibble but to avoid them nesting or the like in the pile itself.
I want some fast right now though so thinking maybe just buy a cheap store bought one to get something 'off the ground' literally, hehe, vs digging holes, which is cumbersome and more susceptible to rodents. Although just a few OSB3 sheets I could probably knock something together in a couple of hours with a flap for access of the bottom mature compost so might do that.
