Title: Pistol Frame
Post by: wirecounter on July 08, 2017, 08:47:07 PM

Finally found the piece of paper that Slick wrote down the supplies needed to make a pistol frame with folding legs, see attached.

Just in case you cannot make it out:

2 each of 1" x 3" x 8' plank
2 pieces carriage bolt - 2" long
2 piece wing nuts - 1'4"
2 pieces fender washer - 1/4"
8 each 1-1/4" drywall screw

Assemble as shown.

One change that I made was to use longer carriage bolts (2-1/2" long), used an additional 2 fender washers, got rid of the drywall screws for the bottom cross member, and used the carriage bolt to keep it in place.
