    I've made several of them in lots of different designs. Here are some examples of some of them I have made. They are not difficult to make and do not require a lot of fancy tools.

    They are simple to make, but if you're not set-up to do it, than yes...it could be a little daunting. Feel free to PM me, or any other members who have made them...perhaps one could be custom-whittled for you!

    Built and sold quite a few--You really dont need a plan. If you look at your picture it will give you a good idea about size of every thing starting with a 12 x 24 base. The side and back boards 2 1/2 to 3 inch wide. The main board can be purchased in a hardware store ready cut--a bread board. Dont buy the one sold for cutting meat. Their oily. Another thing to concider--do you use a C clamp vise? I dont like the vise as shown in your picture -- I feel you would be tying too high. Go to GOOGLE and type in "Fly Tying Bench" for more ideas.
