How To Make Plate Resetting Target
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Welcome to Tiffany Outdoors! today I will show you how I made a plate rack target for my pellet gun. I got the idea from Brain Exploder check out his channel for all things airsoft. he also makes 3D target holders so check out his store.
to see me shooting full sized steel targets check out this video

I have a back yard full of air rifle targets…but it looks like I need to build one e more! Great design!
Great work! If you put magnets on the front piece of wood, it'll help keep them set
Joe I think that is an excellent idea I do have some small magnets to try. Thank you for watching
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 ifui8k it's 11 Emma Road
when setting the hinges place them back a 1/8 th of a inch from the front board. That way the target leans slightly to the front. And that should help them stay up without the need for magnets? The magnets are a good idea though.
@@bryansmith5980 great fix without buying extra material!
dangt, just my thought to! :D Cheers from sweden to you all :)
This is genius.....if I build this for my channel I will plug your tutorial for anyone that wants to DIY one.
Awesome!! Thank you Brad C
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 You bet
I know I'm watching this 4 years later but this idea is really awesome great work
thank you so much!!
Great video. Wish I'd have found this 4 months ago. Would have saved me some trial and error. Another excellent target is the metal caps for steel fencing. The weld on type. Drill a hole in the top for a bolt, drill a small hole in the end of the bolt, and hang with some bailing wire. Makes a great little bell target. Have a wonderful day.
Joseph thank you for the compliment!! I love this idea for the bell targets...thank you for watching
Congratulations! It's always rewarding when a plan comes together! You've inspired me to create a few of these for my own shooting enjoyment. Thank you so much for bringing us on your journey..
I’m impressed! Nice well thought out job.
Thank you so much Gregg!!! Thank you for watching
Well done ma'am. Glad I watched your video. You absolutely did an excellent job. I just finished making a dueling tree a few weeks ago and I have been wanting to make a reset targets for handguns.
thank you so much Evar!!! I hope your targets serve you well. I want to make a dueling tree too maybe in the future I will do that
Handguns will blow holes in those plates. Great idea for .177 bb gun but real guns would destroy the electric covers
@@boharris8179 very true!! I would never use this for a handgun unless I used AR400 steel plates. This is just for pellet guns
Move the hinges back 1/2" so the plates lean forward slightly, that should stop them falling down before they are hit. Be careful with files they are brittle and can snap and fling razor sharp bits into your eyes etc.
I think your resetable plate targets are brilliant, well done for working it all out, I might have a go myself.
good point!! I have so much fun with this thing. Thank you for watching
I love that you use air guns as a woman! This is very rare that ive seen
Refreshing to see a lady at this sport that has some good ideas! Thank you.
Hey Scott!! Yes it's so much fun !! Thank you for watching
Thanks a lot for your idea Tiffany! Will be trying it out this weekend 👍
Huw I hope it is as fun to you as it is for me
Well done! A good n sweet design for pellet airguns!
thank you so much Bror Jordas!
Great job 👍. I actually live on a small houseboat. So I can only "real" shoot at the range.
So to practice on the boat I use a lazor pistol.
I'm working on a BB target trap so I can shoot on my deck outside. It's enclosed but I have to be really careful and it's a challenge for sure.
Anyway, you did a great job and gave me some ideas.
Thanks for the video and keep up the good work 👍🤠
A houseboat that's very interesting I have always wanted a houseboat. Thank you for watching I appreciate it so much. I did make a BB trap using plywood
Excellent! You make things like I do. As you go. Good job. Hopefully you are still having fun with it.
R D'nevermore thank you so much!!! Yes I love to work with my hands and each project I do I learn something new
Thanks for sharing. Watching this gave me some ideas to make something similar.
D first thank you for watching and second I am so glad that my video inspired you to make something too. I hope your target comes out and works well for you ...thank you for watching
I will admit you are very ingenius person--I will make a single target--Thanks
thank you so much Wayne I appreciate the compliment and I hope you enjoy your target like I do
Nice job! I'll be making one for my son and I to use, thanks for sharing!
so awesome he will love it!! I love when parents spend the time to teach their children to shoot. Thank you for watching
So well explained!, thanks for sharing!!
thank you so much Ary!! I appreciate your support
Very nice. Neat idea
thank you so much sheriff!!! Thank you for watching
I dig it. Nice work.
Much appreciated Larcoal2!!!
Good work. Gave me a lot of ideas.
thank you so much Donald it means so much to me that I have you some ideas maybe you can take this design and make it even better thank you for watching
Good project! Should be great fun! Happy shooting!
thank you Donald!!!
Subscribed, excellent vid 😎
thank you so much gammon 1 and welocme!!!
I’m not going to lie for a girl I am actually very impressed I will tell you did a hell of a damn job I am going to give you a few little pointers about the resetting bar you could go a stiffer bar and to prevent that type of metal from slipping out the sides you can bend it up words so it doesn’t slide out
thank you Zackary I do like your idea for a stiffer bar than you, thank you for watching
Nicely done, thank you.
Wow she still replies after all these years! Great work new subscriber here
Yes I am tankful that my channel is still small enough that I can reply to every comment!!! Welcome aboard 😁
Awesome.....I showed my girls...see, this woman can work with tools better than most men today...lol
Yes!! Show them that girls can use tools too I love that you are showing them thank you for your support
Very nice and simpel, I want to build it for airsoft
Moro HD thank you !!! I hope it works well for you...thank you for watching
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 thank u, great talented women.
Use a 20 yard long string and you'll know for sure you are at 20 yards plus you won't have to get up and walk to that shorter string to reset. Great job!
Aerospace Cadet that is a really good idea thank you!!
I think I’m gonna use idea but upscale it for pistols! Awesome video
thank you so much dejayyy!!! will you be using the steel plates from Walmart? if so let me know how they hold up
Tiffany Outdoors I’ll probably find some ar500 steel plates on eBay. I already made a dueling tree with ones from eBay and it works great .
You won't
Nice job congratulations
Thank you so much. Thank you for watching
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 thanks to you i made one for airsoft shooting and it works well, same functioning but lighter target. Tks
That’s a great idea. Thanks much👍👍
no problem Vinny C. I hope your build is a success
Excellent job very well thought out I'm going to make one just like it I'm very inprest in how it turned out it works well nice work well done 👏 👍👌
thank you so much Robin!! I hope it works well for you!!
Commented 4 months ago but been snowed under with work .... I’m off to my Hardware store this weekend 👍
Yes I remember you...let me know it works out for you
Great job ! You could also use a V string connection for your string pull up. A bridle of sorts if you will....Using 2 points of connection might help it work more uniform and smoothly. Like how a kites bridle functions. Hope that makes sense.
Lemony Snicket yes that does make sense!!! Thank you for the idea!!!
You're so awesome! That's exactly what I'm needing!
thank you Brad!!! I hope yours turns out well and you have a ton of fun with it
May I suggest small flat magnetic strips that have adhesive on one side and a flat magnetic strip on the other. They would be just strong enough to stop your targets from falling when you hit the wood.
David I really like this idea I will give it a try
Lol. Just found this video randomly. I literally ordered the hinges yesterday. My targets are going to be smaller. Fender Washers screwed directly to the hinges
Love it... Thank you.. Great fun. Making mine now :-)
Paul let me know how your turns out!!! I hope you enjoy using it as much as I do
Awesome 👏🏻
Thank you so much Randy!! Thank you for watching
I might make one of these for target practice and if you don't mind I may make my own version of one and put it on my channel if you would not like me to do so please let me know
No I don't mind just give me a shoutout....
Brilliant idea thanks for sharing!
thank you lee hirst for your support!!
Awesome. Thank you for the tutorial!!
you are welcome Juan!! Thank you for watching
An excellent job. A greeting from Spain.
Spain!!! Wow that is awesome!!! thank you for the compliment
Well done grate work
thank you so much!!!! Thank you for watching
I've been looking for something new to shoot at and this is pretty swuft! I'm always looking for something fun and different but lack the creativity you have. Thanks for posting your video.
Thank you for the kind compliment David. I hope this video gave you some new ideas and feel free to share them with us!! Thank you for watching
Gal after my own heart. I love coming up with ideas and building from scrap and inexpensive parts something that costs so much more store bought. You go girl.
Thank you so much Beverly Michael for the kind words!!
Good job! Thanks for posting.
thank you Doug
Good work. Don't shoot these with BBs. They ricochet with most of thier force. Lead pellets are far less likely to ricochet.
good point!! The BBs went all over the place
i really love your approach to diy. I love when you can grab things laying around and turn them into something unique and useful. unfortunately my autism makes it hard to be so driven as to make it a career lol but thank you for sharing. Is this still being used or has it been improved upon?
Easy E as I do more and more research on Autism I can understand how things can be very difficult to focus on. I haven't used this in a very long time but as cooler weather approaches I will be pulling this out again
Well done! Making one today!
thank you Rob!!! I hope it serves you well !!!!
When I was a kid we had targets in this Asbury Park museum at a few shot they would move how would I make one like
Sounds like you had fun as a kid. I hope you can make one like the one I made in this video but make it even better with new ideas. Thank you for watching
Awsome !!!! On my way to the hardwear store 👍
Julian thank you for watching!! If you have any changes that worked better than my design feel free to share with us thank you for watching
Im glad i stumbled upon this video, thanks for using common tools in the build!
taurbaby thank you for watching!! I hope you enjoy your taget as much I enjoy using mine
super nice ... i bet i do a little thick plate for my .22 lr...
I like your idea Vinny Ha!!!
ideahave good i make same but cheap better material and little different style strongest. no wire i think better use strong aluminium tube or wood rod, wire not good. hinge little far back and adjust scew how accurate. sensitive have target drop down. can adjust at screw. and aluminium sheet and ok.
I dont leave this outside its mobile and I keep it in my shed. so therefore zero rot. metal can be expensive and most people will not have the tools to drill or cut it
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 ewery normal men have drill, cutting pliers,saw in home, not expensive, must be big idiot loser if not have basic tools in home, metal saw, screw rivets, battery drill, angle grinder, circular saw, cheap little basic tools only have, and normal men have in garage lot lot lot more basic tools. only totally idiot loser asshole not have. if can do woodwork, can do aluminium work, if can do aluminium work can do little metal work .ALL this video parts have ewery normal men can buy or have in home and can make.wood,corner support metal,hinge, aluminium or steel plate, screws. all have cheap easy parts use and buy.
Well done.
thank you so much Frank
Those cicadas are friggin screaming. Awesome though, thank you.
LOL I know they are so loud UGH
Fantastic!
thank you so much Leonard!!
Wow much respect ✊🏽
Thank you so much Zochoppa. Thank you for watching
The pellets weight more than BB’s that’s why they leave more damage.
that is very true!! thank you for watching
You should design one of these for larger calibers. And patent it!
I love the way you think!!
Nice work, better than some of the ones you can buy 👍uk 🇬🇧
thank you so much! Thank you for watching
Small magnets would hold the targets, this would also stop the targets from being blown down or fall down until shot!
Andrew I think this is a very good idea!!! Thank you for helping my with this
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 Hi Tiffany, Thank you for sharing such a brilliant idea. Such an enjoyable video. I'm definitely going to give it a go when I get all the materials together👍😷👍Take care my friend 👍😷👍
Thank you for the idea !!! I’ll be building one, although a little beefy. As I’ll be shooting with a .22.. the reset mechanism is what I’ve struggled with. You opened my eyes. Bless you
Jack thank you for watching I hope your build is successful. Comment back with any idea changes you found that worked better
Good job!
thank you Jason!!
Well done Tiffany ! That is SO COOL ..... gonna make one for myself 😉🏴🇺🇸
thank you so much Robert!!! I hope you enjoy building it as much as using it
Wow your smart
thank you so much SirRoc Music I appreciate your support!!!
great job .... i wish more folks would keep there how to's like this
thank you so much Shawn!! So tell me how is my video different?
Nice job! It's always tough to come up with a target design that can work flawlessly with a large range of different powered air guns. For the rifle, I'd either lean the entire base forward a little or move back the hinge on each target such that the targets lean forward a little when the base is level. This should prevent targets you're not shooting at from falling when you hit the one you are shooting at. Personally, I'd avoid shooting bb's at a steel target as the ricochet's can become unpredictable.
Thank you for the idea. I was thinking that I would try putting some soft foam on the back of each target so when it does fall the others wont fall too. Yes I agree the BBs did come back at me on some of my shots
You're most welcome. I think what you came up with is pretty cool!
i think a pieces of magnets placed at the back of the frontal piece of wood acordingly to the target plates would do the trick of unwanted falling of others
that is a good idea!! thank you
Agreed - move the hinges back a little.
Wow my sg552-2 shoots them down in few seconds + great job
thank you Derb!!
Well done. I stumbled upon this looking for design to make with ar500 to shoot with rifles but I plan on copying this in a larger scale
Jcasta8 I hope my design helps you I think you will have a lot of fun with it. thank you for watching
Nice job 👍🏻👍🏻been trying to come Up with something and ran across your video and you did all thinking for me (thats the hard part for me lol)
LOL thank you jerkygutts
Have the targets lean against bolts or screws that adjust to set the angle the plates lean at.
Check Mate this is such an excellent and simple idea. Thank you so much for sharing this!! this idea would make it super adjustable and I could use any pellet gun
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885your very wellcome. Also heres some other ideas
magnets can help hold the plates up in wind.
If combined with set screws it would be possible to tune how 'sticky' it is to the magnet.
A large wheel of sorts mounted to the side would offer larger mechanical advantage for the reset bar.
As the rope would roll over the continuous outer edge of the wheel the mechanical advantage would always be at its highest during the arch of motion the reset bar takes.
Hope this helps
Try to use a rubber band top pull the thing back
Paul I really like that idea!! Thank you for your idea
Great job!
thank you Nell Acda. I enjoyed this build
that was awesome!
thank you John
At least your targets are a bit more than I expected. My rifle would have went clear through those thin sheet metal targets. But anyway, I would have loved a target setup like you had built! I would have loved to have demolished those little pop up targets!!! No fun intended Lil'girl!!!
Very simple and impressive. Will make one of those for sure :)
I guess it could use a bit stronger wire or even a metal tube to make the targets return to position and a couple of smaller targets.
I like that idea a lot
Thanks for sharing, will be making one with my 9 year old, this weekend. 👍🏼
Adrian I believe your 9 yr old will have a blast making this. I just love when parents make memories with their children and doing projects together strengthens a bond like no other
Nice!
thank you Robert!!
Nice, that's what i've searched for. I will definitely build one for myself 👍
Nice!!! So glad this helped you. thank you for watching
Genius, thank you. I need to make targets for a chalk ball course and this is what I have been looking for.
Thomas I'm glad this video will help you!! Thank you for watching
The idea is right the construction needs rethinking. 😂
Yes I admit it isnt perfect but it works....well most of the time
Hi Tiffany. Great job. Thanks for the ideas. Grts. from the Netherlands.
Was thinking of doing one of this kind of targets myself too. The end of my backyard is quite rocky and uphill towards forest..
An idea came to mind.
If turning the hinges the other way around, the targets/plates would get more space to lean more forward (if needed). A long screw could be screwed through the front wooden panel for each target - and the angle of how much each target leans forward could then be adjusted separately..
I was thinking of building this in a low, wooden box. Since the box would be placed on an uphill terrain - the inside of the box' back wall would then be visible behind the targets and catch all the missed pellets. No idea though yet how to collect the pellets that hit the targets.. :D :D .. or just maybe oughta build all this in a wooden box.. Oh well, there goes simplicity out of the window, once again.. ;) :D
The basic idea of this kind of target is quite easy. But if you do not want to shoot your environment full of pellets throughout the years - then somekind of an "collector" would be good to have.
That is a very good point Bror Jordas!! I think you will love this once you get one built and if you come up with an idea to collect the pellets let me know too ;) Thank you for watching
Styrofoam. Put it behind the targets for any stray ones, they get stuck in there. I'm thinking of putting styrofoam on the targets themselves then printed bullseyes on those, not a fan of pure metal since it makes them bounce.
Interesting idea. I would like to have one but I don't have the money. But I have all the supplies at home so I can make it. It's always good to see women who are interested in the outdoors and shooting.
Thank you so much Jack!!! I have always loved outdoor activities . I hope your target comes out awesome, Let know how it works out for you!! Thank you for watching
@@tiffanyoutdoors3885 yeah! Made a basic forge in my backyard. All it is is a hole in the ground (literally). Might be able to make hardened steel plates that last longer.
nice common sense target rig, except you might as well flip the target up by hand still. you are pulling on a cord that is equal to the same weight of all the targets, still walking to grab the string/rope, and still walking onto the range to get it. maybe a more automatic rig could benefit for more better practice. plus bigger caliber damaging target rig could make you a millionaire..
LOL I do want to try something that I can hit a button and it will reset itself
Really neat idea. And great vid as well. Thanks!
Tiffany... that is a fantastic idea I think you could figure out all the geometry in patent this for firearms in a heavy duty version.. it looks like a real safe design...OR manufacture yourself with some friends and sell the crap outta 'em...the targets, not your friends...HAH!... Keep on keeping on
Rick Strole I love that idea!!! Thank you for watching
Try a Red Ryder instead of pellet gun.
David I think the round bbs have a tendency to ricochet...Red rider was my very first bb gun my mom dad and brother had a fun time shooting cans in our backyard lol
Absolutely perfect. Jus what I needed to see to build my target. Same build as those r the materials I have. No hinges though so I gotta make something. I might jus bend some plate metal.
SirSmoke I hope it turns out great for you. I have a ton of fun with this target
Maybe weld a light spring to the target and secured to the wood. I'd use maybe about a 1" diameter and 10" length spring. If 10" length is too much, cut it to size with straight cutters.
I wish I could weld!!! That is something that I want to give a try in the future. Thank you for watching
Great Job! Probably one of the best ideas I've seen in a while. Thank you for posting!!
Thank you Shane!
THANKS FOR THE IDEA YOUNG LADY, WELDING WILL BE BETTER TO PUT THEM TOGETHER LUCKY I HAVE A MIG, FOR HAND BB GUN 5 YARD WILL BE GREAT
Junito1957 nice I want to learn how to weld one day I hope it comes out perfectly for you thank you for watching
Very good work Thanks for posting... Can lids could work and rivet them on to the hinge posts. Great job hours of fun..
MSG A J Himel can lids are a very good idea and a great cheaper alternative
Very Cool. Good Job.
thank you so much Scott!!! thank you for watching
To get them to stay up after you pull them back up......MAGNETS!!! Magnets would keep them up enough after you pulled them back up!!!
Thank you so much! I can't wait to build one.
Jason I hope you enjoy your s as much as I enjoy mine !!!
