Anyone have a better idea than this for a target stand to


take to the range?

Looks like a pretty good target stand. You can fill the


bottom with


sande or water to keep it in place when there is a bit of wind.






If he fills sections of tube with something solid, or seals


the ends of


a couple of the base tubes with sand inside, he can break it


down and


carry it in his bag without filling and un-filling the base...




That's the plan. Small bag of mortar mix ought to work well.


I'll just fill the bottom 'feet', but


leave them unglued so I can disassemble them easily.

'Name-calling'...the liberals' answer to a lost argument!




You know you live in a Country run by idiots if... You have to


have your


parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to get


an abortion.






The only issue I see is getting the mortar plugs to not shrink


when


setting and fall out.. Might have to put a screw or a dowel


through the


side of the pipe before or after setting the mortar??




Um, how about non-shrink grout.......






Just be sure to rough the surface of the pvc so the goo will form a


mechanical bond..




No need, non shrink actually expands somewhat, and has bonding


agents to


adhere even to smooth steel.






Thank you mr, engineer... but in the real world....




You stupid little twit!!! In the "real world" non-shrink mortar has


bonding agents to adhere to smooth surfaces. But, I know you are insane


and stupid so you won't listen. Would you like me to show you? If so,


then will you shut up?






Yeah, you are right.. Let's not spend the time to put a screw in there,


because "on paper" it will never fail.. LOL..




WTF would a screw do if it's going to shrink,




Holy crap, you are hopeless...








You're about the right height for a target stand. How much would you

charge to stand and hold a target?



Whatever he charges....It would be worth every penny.
