    Dear Ian: Could you describe more completely the bench arms or
    moveable "flaps" you describe in your post? In particular, how you
    hinge them so they can be moved out of the way when not in use. 

    I've been designing, in the back of my mind, a similar system, but
    haven't gotten too far with it. 

    I've been using the cheap portable "clamp-on" bench pins, one on
    each side, angled, for arm stability: easy to take on and off. But
    they aren't very sturdy, and they're not padded! 

    I'd really appreciate more details...it sounds like just what I
    need! -- Lin Lahlum
