Tim--

The pressure pad at the rear could be bigger. I realize things don't normally shift around with your middle support velcroed to hold things steady but if they did shift due to the user not fastening them down as tight as you would the rear plug or whatever could tilt/slide right off that pad and launch. Another way a shift could happen is if the guy was hammering a punch pin, wrenching around and those velcro straps gave a little too much. The rear pad dimension IMO should be overbuilt with a lip to at least help catch the worst case. Probably wouldn't be real easy to make happen with the U-channel but you know about Murphy's.

Also, although it's admirably compact I wonder about the side to side stability. It looks to me like it could possibly use a front and back cross leg so that you couldn't tip it over easily. Removable of course.

Other than those observations looks pretty marketable.
