Would there be interest from anyone in a custom ring that was built with steel and comes with instructions on how to piece the whole thing together, similar to a real wrestling ring used by the pros? It would be like buying a real ring for wrestling but to the scale of Mattel figures and made to be used for display and play? If you haven't seen my work before here is a some of my work over the years with wood. My next venture is steel, but I want to see if I can garner interest from any consumers who might be interested in purchasing. forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/209304/custom-arena-wip

I will be doing one myself one of these days. My metal guy is awesome.
As far as your project, you could always try.

IF it was constructed well and letit to scale then I would. But Please just do it and then post it. Otherwise the board gets clutered with hopes and dreams instead of actual physical work.

From a guy who is trying to make and sell custom rings to another, take your time with this and experiment with different materials. The biggest challenge you'll have is with struggling to get the scale factor right. Home Depot and the Dollar Store will be your best friends!
Neparo has excellent advice. He has been doing this for years and I'm sure he'll be the first to say that this takes a lot of work. Don't overwork yourself trying to get this done quickly or you will begin to hate it! I've been in the planning stages myself for about a year and a half making prototype after prototype to nail it perfectly. I don't work at it constantly, but occasionally in my spare time so that I enjoy it!
