I do have about 40 lbs of carbon gouging rods. Bit hard to solder them
together though. Could make a couple plates with holes and set
screws though...G

The old ARRL Handbooks had information on dummy loads. IIRC, they
included instructions on making them.

Most public libraries have copies of old Handbooks. You'll find lots
of useful things in those that's just skipped over today.
