But can you give me some guideline to build the ball head mount?

I don't have any pictures, but I just built one with 1x2 boards but
the actual connection to the camera via a ball-head mount.  If you
already have tube rings, do they have threaded holes on the top?  If
so, you may be be able to just screw a ball-head mount onto the tube
ring.
