Any suggestions for finding or source for buying an 1860's Turntable?

The 1860's are 100 years earlier than my railroad's Approximate Time Period so this is a rather uninformed answer : ) but...
Barring there being a craftsman kit out there, you would probably need to start with either the Peco or Atlas turntable and make some modifications.

Cool... I had been trying to come up with the term "Gallows Turntable" but my brain was not cooperating...
Glad to see someone out there already has a kit.

Last night I stumbled upon a brand new Peco turntable and pit (with a new Peco motorized switch) on Ebay for $21 - I'm set as soon as it arrives!
Again thank you all for your suggestions and help>
