I'm interested once you have them ready to sell.

Only other things I can think of would be a beverage holder, and built-in mister for those hot months. You have a seat warmer in that stool yet Judd?

That's a mighty smurfy stock Judd is a bench-rester, therefore a weird-o. That's just how they roll. Looks good Ramball.

Very nice. I need something like this that is light and easily portable to go in our little 4x4 Samurai. How big is it?

I need something like that. I currently use a 3'x3' portable table with a cinderblock covered with a blanket.

I'll post pictures when I get a chance of the old setup it was 2" galvanized pipe and I mounted flanges with wedges I cut from a piece of 2x6 to angle the legs out. It was what I had seen and after shooting off of it last year it didn't take me long to realize it was killing me. I knew this off season I had to do something about it. I sent Ramball pictures of a bench that was sturdy and asked if he could make the frame and put my top on it. He suggested I change up the design a bit and go to the removable legs from folding legs I sent him. He said he thought he could get it sturdy enough and possibly better than the other design. I figured he wasn't telling me how to be a project manager so I wasn't going to tell him how to fabricate this deal. I told him to go for it. I picked it up this past weekend and I hope to shoot off of it this Sunday but I'll tell you I was real impressed. It is far sturdier than I thought it would be and heavy enough you don't want to carry it far (which is good for what I do) but is light enough one guy can carry it. It is sturdy enough I really don't think I'll have to tie it down. I haven't set it up on grass or sandy ground so we'll see but that just speaks volumes to how sturdy it is. Little info...I don't have measurements but I can get them but the top is 2 3/4" pieces of plywood that are laminated together (way overkill for most but as I mentioned above weight is my friend for the benchrest game) and it roughly 33" tall. Last thing Ramball said as I left is "if it doesn't work well and we need to beef it up bring it back and I'll do it"...he made this comment a couple times throughout the process and that says volumes for his customer service and skills. Thanks Ramball, if y'all need welding done he is a good guy to do it. TDK - misters....I like it. If it is cold enough for me to need a heater on that stool I'm staying home

Have you figured out what your pricing will be on these yet? X2 and will you make a bigger version with cuts for left and right handed shooters. I have both in my family, luckily we have two of each.

How about welding a slot/bracket or something to the bottom of the table that the legs can slide in for transporting?

P_102...that isn't a bad idea. They are heavy enough mine don't slide around but it would keep it all together. I like it.
I actually forgot about this thread, sorry. I'll see (if I remember) if I can get some pre pictures posted. I have now shot one match off the bench and to say I'm happy is an understatement it is night and day versus what I was shooting off of. I'm really pleased with the bench, thanks Ramball.
Someone asked for the measurements, they are 30" wide and 46" deep with a 10" wide and 22 3/4" deep cut out. I hope that helps.
