Does anyone know if they are still making the triangular sheet metal boxes for storing/transporting bench rests? If so, please post website or other contact info. Thanks!

Point to ponder.......
Never seen one, but look at it this way, if you put a triangular rest in a square box, you got extra space for your superfeet, F-class feet, bolt sleeves, lube and stuff. Fits better in the back of the wagon with all your other square and rectangular boxes too!

the box you
are describing was a short run made by an individual back in the late 70's or early 80's. There a few of them in use around the upper Mid-West, but I have never seen one for sale. I would have to concur with the other poster that today, I would have a square box made so that I could also carry all the other little stuff and my back bag in the same box. A quick make for a good sheet metal shop.

Made my own.
I made mine out of 3/8 inch birch plywood. I stained and finished it and use brass hardware. It holds the base with a Shadetree joystick top installed and a spare windage top on the side. There are also holders for extra long leg adjusters and Superfeet. It's a bit heavy, but it does the job and looks nice. I had fun making it. I'm really a better carpenter than a shooter.

Yep they were called rest nest's I had one and gave it to my dad years ago. He still has it. There was one on ebay about 6 months ago. I have a Farley rest and it will not even come close to working.
