I needed a range table easy to move for the range over at my son's place--only one lane (12' wide) and 200yds. We have heavy pipe tables over at the big range already.
Looked in the "spare parts repository" and there was some 2" x 2" .124 galvanized tubing so a frame was welded up with 3 1 1/2 X 1/8" angle iron for stringers. I added some tubing handles to wheelbarrow it to where it is needed on the range. Front legs have used lawn mower wheels with 1' clearance from the ground. The shooting stool is not an attached bench, but a Minneapolis Moline cultivator seat mounted on an oilfield sucker rod frame. Two inch CCA treated lumber is used for the top and fastened with self drilling floor bolts. I only put an angle on the left side for right handed shooters, so my lefty friends will have to turn the table a little--they are a little off anyway. We have used it for about 3 months and it is great. Stable in use, yet light and easy 636276362863629
