Custom stand

here's a stand that I made out of pvc about a year or so ago. Got the idea when I saw a price tag on one at a local store. This one ran me about $20 in materials, and you can strap the marker down to work on it.
The upright for the barrel pops off so I can take it to the field, etc.
The strap is just velcro that I stitched with a ring I picked up with the pvc.
Any questions on it, just pm me.

have wood base, where it likes comes off the wall like a stand, then just build some pieces outta wood to attach onto the base so it rests on those pieces. and then attach it to the wall, so it can be display/stand

I have a couple of ideas, give me a day or so to come up with something that would look good. Just a quick question, why would you put it on the wall? Wouldn't making a custom stand look better if you had it sitting on top of something?

Because I want it too be hanging on my wall so that eats easy to see. Kind of like how some people hang their dear head or antlers on the wall. It's for show. But I want it so that my gun will be able to be taken down from the stand easily. I think it would be ****ing awesome.

Just mount 3 different wood thingys seperate on the wall or just on a plaque. Have 3 different wooding hook-like things up under the tank, in the trigger guard, and under the barrel. I'm makin one and i'll post pics if i can. It works well though. any questions AIM me at WGPntblr27 or just PM me.

ok, i ran into some trouble setting up the router to the router table, mastercraft (also known as bas*ardcraft, or mastercrap, or the comination of the two bas*ardcrap) gave me the wrong table so the router doesent fit, i have to get it exchanged, then i'll start the gunrack, i have all the wood ready.

who ever wanted to make a wall mount for their gun, if you dont care how it looks just take long nails and wrap then im electrical tape for scratch protection and nail them up to fit ur gun. Or use something like this to fit ur needs
