Does anyone have plans for building an inexpensive electric tow bar . I am thinking about buying one of these Ground Support Tow Bar For Scott Tailwheel | Aircraft Spruce

And a single tire with with a 3/8 drive 90 degree Milwaukee elect drill, the tire size and the way of attaching it to the tow bar is the question. There are several DIY videos on U tube, but thought I would ask as I think several on the forum have done something similar. My problem is getting my Starduster Too in and mostly out of the hanger, as it is a bit up hill, and as I have gotten older pushing the airplane out and up hill has become more difficult, didn't use to be that way, but then I was not 80 yrs old.
