    nicol style rest

    I am looking at building this rest and was wondering where is the best place to get the flange angle
    ring. This looks like a fairly big project. Byron

    I got mine from McMasters Search angle rings
    I am not saying go kill all the stupid people......
    I'm just saying let's remove all the warning labels and let the problem sort itself out.

    It is a great design and easy to build if you have the basic metal working tools. If you can't weld, you can always cut all the parts and have them welded up. In the plans )see link) there is a link to the McMasters website. I built mine in a day and it is much bigger than normal.

    Do or do not, there is no try.
