Does anyone know if LCR meters are also incompetent for measuring
ferrite based inductors?  This could be very bad since the large power
supply ive been developing strongly depends on my LCR meter
measurements.

Anyone know of a good high power home-brew L-meter?

   I'm not sure what you have in mind, but measuring the magnitude 
and phase of the current flowing in an inductor with the expected AC 
and DC currents flowing in it is the best way.  You have to duplicate 
the actual operating conditions in order to expect to get the real 
value of what you're looking for.  You can measure the impedance by 
dividing the AC excitation voltage by the measured AC current, but to 
get the inductance and resistance as separate quantities you need to 
have the phase angle between the two.
