Homemade Benchrest Plans?

Thanx Unclenick & Rifleman1776. What I'm thinking about is a solid block of wood w. a space btwn it & a 3/4" wood flat top to snap on a commercial front bag. Then attach 3, 2x4 wood legs running out vertically. Attach levelers/height adjusters. Add some weight to the legs & something to brace the front side of the rifle against. Add a rear bag & I'd be set. There would be no windage though. This is in the real early planning stage. I've seen other wood 'rests out there but they lacked weight. This one would weigh a bit. Plus, w. good wood & good fit & finish it'd be a looker. I'm just not sure (I'll test it out 1st though) if metal threaded inserts for the levelers would have play btwn them & the bolts. If so, I figure it would be next to worthless.
