Here's a link to a photo of another awesome tuner provided to me by Phil,
K5PC. Phil's design is similar to that as shown on the cover of the 1999
ARRL Handbook. Phil's tuner uses a balun at the tuner input with the
"common" lead connections floating above ground in order to achieve
excellent balance.
