A little. The design in the video can be easily adapted to need <$100 in tools though. If you are willing to bolt everything together, you only need a drill ($40 for a corded one), small number of drill bits ($20) and a hacksaw ($20). The curved metal can be approximated with 2-3 straight segments. Most of the expensive tools come from the choice to weld and have fancy curved metal bits. A bunch of the other tools are just faster than using a hacksaw.
