Thread: Portable shooting table

I've been playing around trying to make a portable shooting table for our range one that collapses down and can be used for left and right hand shooters, as we have a couple of members that can't shoot prone.
It's all out of 1 sheet of 18mm ply.

Looks identical to the one manufactured here by a local gunshop you can flip the table and seat sells for $300. Good job.

Probably is got the plan from some US site.

That's plurry clever. Neat bit of kit to have around.

Yeah that’s bloody nicely made

I've always been keen on building one of these. Working on getting a big enough one at present.



Maybe trailer it to the job. Imagine is these were at all the DOC campsites

Care to drop a link? Have found a couple but wouldn't mind checking if it's the same as yours, looks handy.

I only managed to find this drawing but it wasn't quite right and I had to convert it to mm I might do a drawing with correct measurements on it and I'll try and find the you tube clip about it.

Here's mine, it's a folder with piano hinge joints, but it's pretty heavy to handle folded. I like your design better and would be keen on plans.

Not sure if this will work

I really like how he uses dowls instead of cutting out square slots

I have one with steel frame and screw-off galv pipe legs .

If you want pics you should pm me and I will eventually get back to you - convalescing after surgery and not overly interested in life at present .

Thanks for the link , I've redrawn it myself just now with slightly nicer MM dimensions (like 50mm instead of 51, etc.) and a wider benchtop as you mentioned.

Going to go pickup a sheet of ply now, new tracksaw & router, and after a test build i'll get the plans tidied up to upload here.

There is one measurement that is wrong I think.
It says 6" for the height of the seat on the main body but it's not correct it needs to be the same height as the other bit that becomes the seat
I would also use dowls instead of the squares to locate the top and the seat.
