I will probably get beat up on this but what I have is a 6'x3"x1/4"
aluminum bar behind my operating position.  It is drilled and tapped
every 6".  Then at the end I have a 1/4 x 20 bolt that I attached my
large ground braid that goes about 5 feet to my ground rod system. 
Have not had problems with ground loops etc.
