In this video I showed how I designed and built my own shooting bench. Hopefully this will inspire others to build their own.
cheers.

That's pretty darn good, me likes it a lot. Only thing I keep thinking is....Why didn't I think of that before??? I have a table of that size with adjustable height that can be moded to do just that. Nice work. Congrats.

thank you all for the kind words. It was a fun project to do. Now I have three other AG friends who will enjoy using the table when they do bench rest shooting.
@bubblerboy. I bought the Tempest Table legs from Canadian Tire. Home Depot sells them too but it was more expensive.

Your outside miter is 53.13 degrees and your inside miter is 36.87 degrees.
Inside miter is closest to your 12” run and outside miter is closest to your 20” run
Inside miter is closest to your 12” run and outside miter is closest to your 20” run

How stable are the folding table legs? I build a portable bench using rugged buddy legs below the table works is not as stable as I was like. Nowhere near like a concrete table. If you lean forward and backwards you can get it to move and a little bit side to side.

Nice! A lot fancier then the ones I make out of 4x4s and plywood. But mine stay back on my range outside in the weather. Would like a nice one like yours for in the garage.

@Bigragu. thank you for the miter angles clarification.
@BlackIce. very stable as I was using 3/4 plywood and the rubber matts with oak strips. it works fine for me as long as the ground is solid.
@Quad82. being portable and compact are nice features to have. you can use them anywhere.
