1) Start by cutting out all the plywood pieces using 

a heavy duty razor blade such as a box cutter. Try to 

cut the tabs off cleanly to minimize the amount of 

sanding required. 

2) Sand down any tab pieces left on the parts. Make 

sure any internal slots are clean to allow smooth 

movement of the bolts through the slotted areas.

The assembly is very simple and requires just a few tools. The plywood parts are held in place on the sheets by 

small tabs left in the wood. These will need to be cut free and it’s easiest using a heavier razor blade with a han-

dle. There are a few steps requiring the use of glue. Each builder will have their preference on what glue to use. 

We recommend using Epoxy, Wood Glue or CA. The CA is faster but can create a brittle joint in some cases 

while the Epoxy and wood glue will create a stronger bond but take more time. Choose what works best for 

you. Most people prefer to leave the wood natural but if you prefer you can stain the wood for a unique look 

and some added protection. We don’t recommend paint as the parts fit is tight and a layer of paint may cause 

the stand to bind and not work properly. When fully assembled the stand is a great tool for your workbench 

and at the field!  Let’s get started!

3) Locate the center base piece and tape over the 

square holes to prevent glue from spilling out in the 

next step.
