My friend gave me his 240cm satellite dish with a c band lnb but it is missing the support that the dish sits on(mount).Does any one know or have any idea how to make one? Thank You

Ok i am almost finished my support for my 240cm dish but know i was wondering the calculation for setting a prime focus dish are they the same we use to calculate the offset dish? I am going to install Yamal 90* east c band. This is my first time installing this big dish i only istalled a 1 meter dish many times and they wer all offset dishes never tried a prime focus dish i heard it is difficult. Thanks
