Exactly. If the CFS is much cheaper than the CIS, and if the parts can 
be bought seperately for the CFS, it becomes feasable to toss the 
cart/tubing part now and then. But I will add that there is slightly 
more pain in first installing the CFS than the CIS. Now that I know 
how to do it, it will be easier the second time, no doubt. To live 
with a cheaper unit that you can replace more often, you put up with a 
slightly less polished solution.

I made it from a sheet of 1/2 inch that I cut to about roughly 18 inch 
x 24 inch. I used 1/4 inch fome-cor to make the  about 8 1/4 inch 
long legs- slitting each leg piece twice and folding to make a 
triangular leg which I hot melt glued to the 1/2 piece.
