Homemade Target Stands

Target stands made out of 2x4s. these are a dual purpose target stand, cardboard targets on furring strip uprights or steel targets on a 2x4 upright. These Target holders are cheep to make, around $4 a piece. I plan on using them for USPSA targets for now.

[@DeVonMArtis]

I looked forever trying to find this design. Everyone else on YT has the most complicated and poorly designed stand. Yours is perfect! Thanks!

[@Handleofallhandles36]

Watching this in 2023. Can confirm target stands are NO LONGER 4 dollars to make 😂. But… still a great option and budget friendly stand

[@fajfasjfjdfasj]

Use 2x3's

Made mine today, thanks for sharing these. Easy to make.

[@Nov1785]

I just made this 8 years after you made this video thanks for sharing

[@nazeoneski]

beautiful! I'll be taking on this project soon. looks sturdy, light weight and easy to transport. Thanks for sharing!

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Good build Evan, those will work fine. Fun to have a shooting range close by to keep your shooting skills up. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@philthebarbertv]

Awsome idea. Thanks for including the measurements 👍🏽

[@xsoulkidd909]

I just made my target stands 😊 I can’t wait to test them out on Friday Thank you

[@flybyedandy]

Thanks for a simple, clear, concise and inexpensive target stand. I think I can build those easy- peasy;-)

[@RabbleVideo]

Just what I was looking for, thanks for the ideas!

[@cia290]

Didn’t ever get back on here and let you know.. But I made these and they are great. Think I made 6 of them. I have 5ft and 4ft and 3ft target heights works great. Thanks so much for this video.

[@toamaiusdvignir9468]

Awesome set up, great video. Thank you.

[@bigsamdog1]

Awesome!!! Just what I was looking for.

[@IMMORTALFILMS]

thank you, i had this idea in my head and wasn't exactly sure how to execute it, now i got it, thanks again

[@johnnybgoode1726]

Absolutely amazing 👏

[@darrenhaywood7924]

Nice exactly what I was looking for I'll be making a few of these thanks

[@EstebanCafe1]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@9thchild358]

My base came out crooked as shit (operator error), but it still worked great. Thanks for the vid.

[@themagnet61]

Thanks for sharing............Off to the wood shop to make a couple

[@94Whiskey]

thanks! just what I was looking for!

[@redbull4966]

I use a for sale sign holder from Lowe’s. I get the one with a heavy duty frame and zip tie cardboard to it. Works pretty good. Just replace the cardboard after 50-100 rounds and ur set.

[@deangaswint9385]

Awesome video

[@miigzen]

Thanks for making the video.

[@proudbirther1998]

Nice Vid. Good Instructions.

[@showoffyoureverydaycarry4016]

Going out to make a couple right now. Thanks!

[@jasonlopez2828]

Awesome great video

[@yasminghani2073]

Enjoy watching your video

[@frankmoralesiii6908]

I put door hinges so the legs can fold in for storage

[@12799MaDeuce]

This is a great design and a great video! I need to find someone with a table saw to make the cuts for me

[@abdullahadil3937]

You gave me a great idea bro

[@robbw6386]

Be using this way for my dartboard stand 🎯

[@outdoorstudios2022]

Thanks for sharing!

[@JP-of8uq]

Great design. I definitely made everything way more accurately than needed. Slot for 2x4 is a little loose cause I used a skill saw and isn't perfect. Will slide a framing shim in to tighten up when I'm at the range. Any concern shooting a rounded bolt on the steel? I feel like that would send the bullet into rickoshit?

[@talhajanjua18]

Good thing about what is you can shoot the wood and not destroyed compared to you shoot the thin steel and be done with it

[@timetide5961]

Hello from England, Perfect Thank You xcx

[@DarkVegetaman]

Whoo, I think I can make this. Thanks for the hot tip!

[@xZiephyr]

i just used 2x4 as spacers worked way easier

[@tommym4787]

Freakin awsome

[@tonrobert3391]

Good job Not a bad idea buddy.

[@brianonthego]

Your a genius. Thank you...just what I was looking for. How are they in the wind?

[@CountryViewAcres]

The seem to do fine in the wind, even with a full cardboard target.

[@edc_7321]

I heard you mention that you cut the furring strips to 5 feet for the uprights. Do you also cut your upright 2x4s to 5 feet as well?

[@CountryViewAcres]

I am going to guess 4ft, so you can get 2 out of an 8 foot 2x4

[@americanallthewayredneck3917]

2000 $ table saw..must be a nice one

[@RyGuyTheAVGuy]

is it really DIY if you need all of the tools most people don't have?

[@gigi9467]

How long are the pieces at the base?

[@jermw9922]

You fuckin genius. Thank you for the video

[@jeffmcmahon615]

Great for air soft. I guess

[@squirrelydan826]

nice build. could you not have just put the 2 2x4 together and dado the space for the uprights?
im gonna use this as a template to build my stands. thank you.

[@IMMORTALFILMS]

Nice idea, i'm wondering if that would make the 2x4's to weak to support a heavier steel target wobbling back and forth as you shot it. That would work great for just the 1X2's tho.

[@squirrelydan826]

I have since made one of these. The top has foam to pin the paper targets to. Work great but the hollow point . 22 take alot of meat off the wood.lol

[@JP-of8uq]

Mill out the support to accept 2x4, you do this once and can replace upright as much times as u need to. Mill the upright and every time you shoot the support accidentally you need to remill.

[@flockacheese1593]

making these at work

[@ViaExsanguinate]

$4 a piece has tripled now in 2022!

[@Peter-976]

smalltown442 how stable are these when shooting.40 or 45 cal.

[@CountryViewAcres]

We only knocked one over once, it had a 8" steel plate hanging from it, and we shot it with a 45-70.

[@katcher06]

Why not just use 2x4s for the spaces in the middle? , then you wouldn't need the groove cut out

[@DarkVegetaman]

Indeed, then on the sides you could just use 2x2 pieces to hold targets upright instead of 1x2s.

[@otunca]

@@DarkVegetaman let's make a video:)

[@msrelics]

Thank you! I'm glad someone else noticed this too!

[@alcantrell5340]

I did. And I also turned my 2x4 upright the other way for my steel target hangers.

[@markbirchfield1120]

Can you put the measurements in the description?

[@wuddupboy96]

Exactly what I was saying

[@ednusso5442]

what are the lenghts of the pieces???????

[@wuddupboy96]

Anyone have the measurements written down ?

[@kevinspieler7838]

Any more tips for me

[@Gunner-nb2nv]

Do you sell those?

[@jk240sx]

4 dollars a piece huh? Not right now thats for sure

[@invigerator]

talented dude. lots of nice toys to build with. the 2" brad nailer makes me a bit nervous, though.

[@camilovelazquez7270]

What are the sizes of the 2 x4?

[@stiffyschlong]

Okay. I just need to buy a fucking $2000.00 table saw just to make one fucking $4.00 target stand.

[@agentblack3090]

lowes...

[@kaufmanat1]

or a hundred dollar router which if u do any wood working at all u should already own.

[@shenderson1117]

Just made a stand with a standard chop saw stiffyschlong, and if you were capable of doing anything on your own, you probably would have already made one by now. And that's without being a douchebag.
Great video by the way. Gonna take it out and use it this weekend. Thanks

[@dustintinsley3899]

With enough determination you could make it with a kitchen knife, troll.

[@VisualAnthony]

or just pay $0.20 /cut and have lowes do it for you

[@no_handle_required]

4 dollars. That's like 459 in 2024 Biden dollars.

[@UncleFjester]

$25 for a real stand on Amazon

[@tonyvillena1293]

This doesn't hold for me. The middle post is too weak.
