Great job Mike. I like the idea with the wheels..:) I had an itch a couple years back to make shooting tables that were portable. Here is what I come up with and if I remember the total cost averaged out ot be about $35.00 per tabpe finished. Thanks for sharing Mike.

Thats a good idea, my wife is always fussing at me for taking her table off the porch. I think that I will be looking at makeing one shortly.

I've since added a set of rear wheels to it... that treated lumber can be heavy....  set it up on sidewalk outside my back garage door.... want to shoot, open door, roll table into place, park butt on stool inside of garage, don't care about weather, and have at it !!!!!

Not a bad looking table. Looks like one sturdy shooting bench. I shoot off of a camera tripod with a sock I filled with rice on top of it. Little more redneck but gets the job done. And Im pretty cheap. lol

I made this a few weeks ago, but just added wheels (not shown) this last weekend. The legs are some left over 4x6 and yes, it is heavy.





Mommy is a lefty so everything has to be (at least) ambidextrous around here. There is a chain link fence 'way past the stone wall that is 53 yards.





Crude but effective. This one has to be pretty mobile, so I didn't incorporate a bench. It was all built from scrap except for the top- they had a sale at HD on the nice ply sheets, and I have enough left over to build another one. For now, this one is finished with a camo tarp until I decide my next move.
