Project of the day...

Chappy

Silver $$ Contributor
While walking through the shops, I seen someone taking a whole bunch of old weight lifting stuff to the scrap yard. Found an old dumbbell that had 4-7.5 pound weights on each side. After getting the plates off the handle bar, I took two plates with 3 total and put 4 little welds at 12, 3,6, and 9 o clock. After that, ran to ace to get 3-3/8" bolts with nuts and 2" diameter washers. After two hours of work, I have a heavy, stable platform that won't move when shooting! :D

And the results proved worth the effort.

I like it. It's good that someone thinks out of the box.
Heavy, almost too heavy! ;D Was getting annoyed trying to adjust something on the rest only to have it move.
