I want to build a shooting bench for the #sfmafia headquarters.
I have looked around a little for some plans but I ain't paying $50 for a set.
Just wondering if anyone has any or know where to get some?

I am going to use treated lumber and when done I am going to figure a way to put some wheels on one side of it so it can be moved around when needed.
Probably make it for both right and left handed shooters.

I built one with a large wire spool. Really simple. Only problem was it wouldn't roll anymore with the seats on. It would've worked great if it had a permanent home. I gave it away a few months ago.
 
This may be overkill, but I drew up a double bench the other day for lefty or righty shooters. I haven't made drawings yet but will soon, and I can post them when I do if you want. I put it on skids so you can drag it around. It'll be about 400 lbs!

Best thing since sliced bread. No picnic table multiple seat for me personally. It makes you feel like your shooting off a moving table. An elbow put down on a wood bench moves the scope a lot.
 
When I poured my garage footers last month, I formed and poured a bench top like the one in Mr Big's post.

Anyway, I saw this pic on the net and saved it. You might be interested in building one.

This is what I did and it's really pretty easy. If you have a lineman friend you can probably get the spool donated.

For $175, I'll make you one of these; base is on you:

I made this table top for my downhill neighbor; a couple of friends of his and I emplaced here as a gag while he was on vacation:

~45x45" over all, 3.5" thick. Pickup near I-65 and the AL/TN border. $175 each, base is on you.
