Hi,
As everyone's mentioned, making a dob mount would be fairly simple, just a few pieces of wood, cut to size, few screws, and a bolt.
you won't need anything more than just basic tools.
other option would be to sell the primary and secondary mirrors and buy an 8" or 10" dob or a collapsible dob as its a lot easier to handle for a beginner.
that's if the mirrors are in decent condition.
there are a lot of us here to help, as Ken mentioned, your closest astronomical society would be ideal for advise and options.
where are you based, there's bound to be someone from this community nearby.
good luck.
