My reloading/tinkering workspace is a little tight. I am guessing I am not the only one with that particular plight.
Rifle barrel cleaning is particularly awkward. Placing the rifle in a work stand on the bench makes for an approach with the cleaning rod that barely missing either the wall or the drill press.
I am thinking about fabricating a "vice" or other apparatus that holds the rifle out from the bench so I can stand behind it while cleaning, to where it can be tipped down over a pan to catch cleaning fluids. It would need to be easily removed when I'm not cleaning so it isn't in the way. Do any of you have some good solutions that would work for this that you wouldn't mind sharing?
