Thanks for the great compliment Paul! Stay safe buddy!

I didn’t read all of the comments, so someone may have already said this. For cuts up to 36” I use s piece of 1/4” thick flat stock and clamp it to the fixed jaw on the vice. The flat stock should Be the height of the jaw. You can then clamp a stop anywhere along that flat stock to make repetitive, fast, accurate cuts on your Evolution type saw! Great work here brother!😎😎

Boss man, you need 3M 2297 filters. The 2297 gives all of the benefits of of the 2091 (the one you used in the video) and the better 2097 model filter. The 2097 is better than 2091 because it also filters out ozone, which is a byproduct of welding. However the 2297 is better than both of those! 2297 filters gives additional ozone filtration above the 2097 and greatly increased “nuisance odor control” as well. Personally I hate smelling certain types of burnt metal when I weld and the 2297 is the best filter.

Nice build Brandon, I remade some target stands for our club, because some can't hit the target and the stands suffer. We use min 3/16 now. One tip for you predrill your holes before you weld up, makes the job easier. I was thinking maybe you might use a metal blackener rather than paint, what do you think?

@BrandonLund

3 жыл бұрын

I think metal blackener is a great idea! Thanks for passing it along. Some of the folks that use these stands have been known to hit the steel where the wood goes through which causes the metal to pinch the wood and you can't get the wood out. If that ever happens to you, run a big drill bit through the hole to get rid of the expansion where the bullet went through. You will have an added hole in your stand, but it will be usable again.

Just gonna throw this out there. You might think about using a 90° air die grinder with rolloc sanding discs for doing quick deburing. Much lighter weight than an angle grinder. Your wrists will thank you. Im not saying that the angle grinder doesnt have its place. Just seems easier for quick deburring operations on many parts

I also make a shooting frame - but quite a bit different, but, my comment is that my side frames are 24" long but the cross frame is only 6" back. It is more stable that way. Paper, wood, cardboard take a hit - but a frame hit could knock it over. That's why he requested the holes in the legs.

@BrandonLund

Great idea Danny. Putting the cross piece in the center with the holes in the legs has more to do with keeping it stable from wind rather than direct hits. Another cool tip I picked up is use binder clips to attach your cardboard to the strapping and use 3m spray adhesive to attach your paper targets to the cardboard.

What I do is look online using search terms like "steel" or "metal suppliers near me". They will be your best bet. Call them up and tell them your new to welding and your looking to buy from them and this gives you a great opportunity for them to tell you about their services and pricing. Like for me, the shop near me doesn't charge to cut a full length in half. Makes it easier to transport. Don't ever buy metal from the big box stores. It's marked up incredibly high.
