You should easily be able to make one on your own for little money. Just go to Home Depot (they will cut the board for you). Have them cut you a 1" x 12" to a six foot length and then attach a short piece of PVC (1 1/2" diameter to start - you can always go larger later) and you have a tippy board.
Great idea!
