i Used a 28 inch long Rectangle pc of metal tubing for the body. On one end i welded a 4 inch pc Going up.
This is the Back support and i also welded two triangle Pcs For extra strength
On the bottom of the back support i pt a 1 inch long nut and a long Bolt to adjust the Back Up and Down
The Front has another Pc 5 inches Tall and two one inch long Nuts to hold the screw that makes the top move
Up And Down.
i welded a small triangle on the bottom of the front Pc For extra support.
And a 4 inch long plate that supports the Front of the gun.
But after making it it moved way to much so i changed the design
