New base for the Farley rest

[Alex Wheeler]

I asked Travis @AlloyTargets if he could make me a base for my Farley out of aluminum. I was tired of fighting with the awkwardness of carrying this rest. This new base is perfect.

Awesome. I guess you got it. Let me know how it shoots.

I think I still have a space base by Farley that was quite light,

remember to order a year in advance as it is made in Farley Time

This one has a similar footprint as the "Magnum" base. It's 3/4" thick 6061, 100% CNC machined. The idea is for a more portable base that's both lighter and easier to carry. Let's face it, the precision benchrest/ F-Class crowd is on the "mature" end of the age spectrum.

Once Alex has a little time with it and it proves effective, we may add it to our store- assuming there's interest. If so, we'd make in batches of 24 so there shouldn't be much waiting.

These should be standard in a Farley, lol. Its not that the Farley is that heavy, but theres no where to really grab it and its an awkward thing to carry. Especially in F-class where I need to move it around a lot. Thanks!
