How big do you need? I have a HOB skimmer I'll trade for frags. It came off a 120 gallon tank. You just need to buy a pump for it (I'm using the one it came with on the skimmer that's built into my sump).

Shane H gave a presentation on how to make a skimmer before.  If you ask him nicely he may volunteer to do it again this next month at the DIY meeting (hint hint Shane).
