I love the stand! One thing you might want to consider is running the wire through the clothes pin springs, just so they don't get lost. I am probably going to build one of these things. I've been looking for a good idea on how to build a target stand, and cheaply. As usual, great video, Sootch!

@guns4good Excellent Idea! I'll add that to my stand for sure. Losing the clothes pins would be a pain. Thanks Bro!

Clothespins are a great idea, and I see someone already suggested making them captive. The area where I shoot usually has long grass, so I'll skip the base and instead add a lower cross tube with Ts and drive a couple of steel rods into the ground that the vertical tubes can slip onto. I'll use electric fence wire, which is cheap and can be twisted together. BTW, for PVC projects, they make a "cross" (a T with 4 holes) that can come in handy. Not a common fitting, but can be found. Thanks!

great job I've had some for a couple years now and it is

always a good idea to have a couple of straight connectors

on hand in case you hit the stand and break it you can just

glue it back together

I would like to see some details on your range. I'm am starting to clear an area on my property for a range of my own

Good idea. . Amazing what you can do with PVC and an idea. I made an alignment jig for my mercedes the other day out of 1 inch schd 80 pvc to check toe with. Works perfect and found my car had 1/4 positive toe.

Just for a bit more versatility, you can add a T at the top center to mount a metal switchplate cover onto another piece of pipe (make it removable). And drill more holes down the sides. I might suggest ditching the tape and use 2 eyebolts at top and bottom to adjust for different target sizes like the B-27. Great idea about running the wire through the clothespin springs. I'm still wondering though, what'll happen to the PVC if it's hit?
