Doug (et all)
The buss bars you describe work well.  A local ham has 4 of them in a square 
around the base of his HyTower.  I have one that is about to see service on 
my HF9V.  There are through-holes that let you anchor them to a plate.

(HINT: You can get a pretty healthy chunk of brass if you go the Dept 
Manager of Hardware at your local Lowe's or other Big Box Building materials 
store and tell him or her that you will buy a dented Brass Door Plate if one 
should be made available.  I got one 36" long X 12' wide with one corner 
folded over  for $10.)
