Shooting Sticks

This single glove was laying in the road, and I couldn't pass it up. I cut out the two middle fingers, along with strips from the palm. Fused the cut synthetic fabric edges with a lighter to prevent fraying. Sewed the two straps together.
It can be a bipod, or even taller for shooting standing up. All I have to do is carry it in my pocket and scrounge a couple of sticks of the appropriate length. Then ditch the sticks and poke it back in my pocket when I'm done.
Sorry about the white thread. The machine was set up that way, the wife was gone, and I have no clue how change thread on a sewing machine.

I could always re-do it with gray thread. The rest of the family all sews for real - the family motto is "Mr. seam ripper is your friend."
