I have two sets of brackets (3 per set) for making your own shooting bench. The brackets take 1.25" threaded pipe for legs. Pipe can be found at Lowe's, Home Depot, hardware or steel supply places. Somebody told me Lowe's will thread pipe for free when you buy the pipe there? Holes in corners of brackets are 7/16" for 3/8" bolts. Cost is $49 per set shipped USPS. Paypal, MO, or check. Thanks! Below are some pictures to give you a rough idea on how to build your bench. You can configure the legs all sorts of different ways by having two out front, pointed to the sides or straight forward or build as pictured. ![[Linked Image]](https://oi1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah168/llgehring/DSC_0716_zpsv6yz9uwl.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://oi1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah168/llgehring/DSC_0722_zpscbvfgv39.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://oi1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah168/llgehring/DSC_0719_zpss5gqhqyf.jpg)

Top notch! Built my bench using Lonny's brackets. Bought my pipe legs at Home Depot. They threaded them for free for me. Art

Hi Lonny-
What material are you using for the bench top as pictured? Would four brackets be more stable than three
or does three do well enough as you have them?
Thanks regards,
Scott

Scott,
The bench pictured is 3/4" plywood doubled up for a 1.5" thick top. I like 3 legs better due to the bench never wobbles when set up on uneven ground. 4 legs are more prone to get the wobble going. 3 legs are very solid also.
One set still available.

I got a set of these a while ago, they're great. Free bump.

Lonny is great to deal with and the benches turn out great with inch and an eighth subfloor.
