I had a bit of high density foam laying about at work and thought I'd give it a go. 6 magnets from whiteboard erasers were also employed.
Window version to come!

Good jo0b mate, cant for the life of me see why people don't make these for themselves, if you can do it, then anyone can.
Hint, get rid of the blue, not tactardy enough.

I know they'll take my tactard merit badge off me for this, but what does it do?

Its Buff Busters answer to the Max Box rifle rests they have been selling for a few years now. Not too bad a version of it really, but don't tell BB that or his head will swell. More

With the risk of sounding like a dumb arse, is the anywhere I could buy some high density foam in a block? Also what did you use to let the blocks slide for aiming adjustments?
