I built and installed the one shown in the link. The plans are on the internet. It's the only way to make repeatable landings. It also gives you an idea how close you are to a stall when you make a 2G 180 turn.
I made it from two pieces of 1/4 inch alum. It's a bear to drill a small hole that long. Mark the line for the holes on the inside of the two pieces and score the surface with a Dremel cutoff wheel. Put the pieces together and drill. The drill will follow the scored cuts without wandering. The differential pressure gauge is the only expense. Mounted on the inspection plate on the left wing.
