RE: Starting Bench Safety Issues
Campgens,
I had been requested to build two more benches before this incident happened.
We had a meeting last night, the benches are back in use and we are building more.
I am going to go with your design for one so we can make a comparison.
I am going to drill for the front uprights and I am also going to drill for the rear restraint at a slight angle.
There was talk of some tail draggers lifting at WOT so we hope this modification will help.
Thanks for the pictures and description, choices are always good.

RE: Starting Bench Safety Issues
See the link below and look at post #10 to find another design for a starting bench. Click on the “attachment.pdf” link to see the plans and instructions for the bench.
There are also some photos of a “portable stand” on post #20.
Let me know if you have any comments, questions or problems.
