Scott started a topic on this, and I realized that my last home-made rest ended up in the burn pile before my next-to-last move.
Here is a simple replacement made of 1X8 and 1X2 pine, two two-inch 3/8 carriage bolts with washers and nuts, one four-inch 3/8 carriage bolt and one 3/8 T-nut, providing three points of contact with the shooting bench. I molded a strip of vegetable-tanned cowhide to the V-groove and tacked in place with non-marring bronze boat nails for easy replacement. It is just shy of 18 inches long. I will try to have a co-worker at the shooting range take a couple of photos of me using it, but you get the idea. The bag is to support the wrists, and the V-notch to support the forward frame or barrel, depending on which gives you best accuracy. The front "wheel" allows easy up and down fine tuning. Pretty simple Saturday morning project, fellas for $15 or less.

Definately a good idea to make. I have a cheap plastic one right now. I also have some SCRAP Oak board that I was trying to figure out what to do with.
