You would be hard put to beat that setup for twice the price.I did the math the other day. The base for the bald eagle slingshot cast iron is $80 , feet are $9 a piece and all shipped free at the time. $107 Plus the shade tree top at $420. $527 for a brand new setup.
I'd be curious where you are getting your prices for the Bald Eagle. The base is more than $80 and when you say base, that doesn't include the mounting post, knobs, adjusting shafts and probably about 25 or 30 other part to make the unit work with any top. $107 isn't going to get a usable Bald Eagle base.I did the math the other day.

From their website. I was under the impression that you only needed the base to make the shadetree top work.I'd be curious where you are getting your prices for the Bald Eagle.

There'd be a few more bits but even if it could be pieced together cheaper I'd buy yours and be shooting instead of waiting on shipping from two different vendors.I'd be curious where you are getting your prices for the Bald Eagle.

Gonna need more than that. Look at the pic in the link in post 11 above yoursFrom their website. I was under the impression that you only needed the base to make the shadetree top work.
Lee, I put my Bald Eagle base in the mill and milled the bottoms of the 3 legs. You could do it with a hacksaw as it really makes no difference other than looks.I have a bald eagle cast steel front rest with one of butches tops. great set up, nice and solid I will say it can be a bit tall. Or better put, there are times when I wish the top would go lower. I keep mine for my customers and company to use

I have a wedge shaped [a shingle] wooden block with sandpaper stapled to each side and put under my rear bag if needed, on the bench.Lee, I put my Bald Eagle base in the mill and milled the bottoms of the 3 legs. You could do it with a hacksaw as it really makes no difference other than looks.
