Default Portable bench/tying table?

What do you guys use for your fly tying tables? Any ideas or pictures of benches that are easy to take down and set up? I like to tie at night while watching TV..so I need something fairly quick and easy to set up/take down. Thanks.

Got a great box that holds a lot of materials, tools, etc from Fort Shockley--they have several sizes depending onhow much you room you need to store and how much space you have available to rest this on

Default It's Clouser tying time on the beach

Whitetail, you are really tying up a storm!
Here I am doing what I like to do with my nephew, we're double tying!!
This is probably too simple, but for traveling, I use a 40" straight board 3/4" or 5/4 x 12" and 2 wooden boxes w sliding tops( a liquor store that has a good wooden wine boxes will do the trick) in a Zip travel bag
I use this caddy http://www.saltwateredge.com/FM153.html , Here is the picture. I have a saltwater bag & a freshwater bag ready to go , if you have a chair with arms you are always ready to go just keep a bag in the car. I wonder if I was having a refreshment?

CB...I love this site and have gotten back into fly tying again...not to mention just purchasing a 12' Wilderness SOT kayak that I need to rig out for stripers....couple that with renewing my love for fly fishing again and totally renewing my fly fishing gear for stripers last year. I have a lot of questions lately...LOL

Glad to have another fly fishing & tying person aboard, Since I took a break as well, this site is great when it comes to the new materials & techniques that are available. I have a traditional fly tying table in my fishing shed.
I am looking forward to some pics of the kayak and your "quarry"
be well, cb

Thanks Cb....I've got a bench totally dedicated to fly tying, but its in the other room. My wife just gave me the ok to move it back into the living room
. Haven't been tying much, but I've been searching the net for new patterns and running my printer low on ink printing out patterns for the striped fellas! Will definitely try to post some pictures of the new yak and "hopefully" some stripers I catch out of it.
Where you from cb? I'm in Mass and would love to come to some of these tying clinics you guys get together at some day?
