Hello all, thought I'd share my latest creation(I'm a tinkerer that can't stop his self...). I made it out of oak that I stained with the color "Gun Stock", I felt it was appropriate. I sealed the wood under 4 coats of Polyurethane to protect against the chemicals used while cleaning my guns. Anyway, let me know what y'all think.

That is really nice and a great idea. You should do a tutorial of how you put it together and your thinking behind it.

You ever snack on those chips while cleaning your gun?

Jaybird,
Sometimes I just hate organized people. It drives me nuts! 
Really, it looks good. I should do something similar, but I'd have to get organized first, so it probably won't happen anytime soon. 
Thanks,
Duane

Very nice - you could think about selling them.

That's a sweet/organized setup you got there, my gf would love it if I had one of those. She doesn't like it when I take over the coffe table after trips to the range.

Jaybird, very nice work. I work in metal and wish I had the time/patience/talent you have.
You could sell them easily.

Nice work!
I've often though about building something with 'short walls' to prevent over-spray/splatter.
