How to find or make a large dock for two yellow-belly slider turtles?

Question

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask but: I have 2 Yellow-belly slider turtles, both about the size of an adult hand. Their dock (which I got when they were smaller) is no longer big enough for even one of them. I'm having problems finding a dock that will accommodate them both. They are currently in a 60 gallon tank until we upgrade but I want to at least have a good dock for them until then. Should I look into getting 2 separate docks? Or is there another alternative. Thanks. Pet's info: Other | Unknown - Other | Male | unneutered

If you're having a hard time finding a dock that is the right size, consider making your own! Very simple designs can be made from PVC pipe and other materials. I have attached a link to a forum that shows several DIY options for building a turtle dock. These are often cheaper than store bought items. http://www.turtleforum.com/forum/upload/index.php?/forums/topic/153638-safe-materials/
