Making my own Breyer props?

Question

So I love breyer models and hope to do some photo showing. But of course props are SO expensive!!!! I know you can make your own but I'm so clueless!
Does anyone have a tutorial site, tutorial you can give me here, or advice on making my own breyer tack,jumps,and stable accesories?
Thanks in Advance!
