We used to make up or modify NDB approaches for our students so that they could get some practice flying them. There weren't any around but there were some AM radio stations.
All we did was find a NDB approach at another airport, run it through the copier, white out the things we wanted to change like frequencies, altitudes and headings etc, then run it through the typewriter and bingo, customized approaches.
Make sure you write "for practice or training only" and test fly it to see that it will work.
Good luck
