    I was having a resonance issue on a mover activator I'd built. A gate spring stretched across gave the vibrations somewhere to go and wear themselves out.

    It's actually kind of mesmerizing to watch the reverb run up and down the spring.

    Easiest targets to use

    Multiple reactive targets on one T Post.

    If you're talking to me...yes I do.

    Shooters view



    Blue arrow shows rod that transfers swinging plate movement to a pivot. Attach line at first washer then run line through second washer to whatever needs activated.




    Don't know how to embed freebird videos but here's a link to me shooting on it.

    Cool thanks! Video took a while to buffer but that could be my connection.

    The buffering is freebird. A couple dudes made it in a weekend as a youtube replacement.

    I use the Hang Fast Targets.
    I’m in the country, so t-posts are quick and easy.

    A friend of mine started this company recently. I enjoy the T post targets, and the paper target stands, also.

    So I went with holes. "drill holes in AR500" sounds a lot easier than it is-- that's when you find how unGodly tough this stuff really is. Anyhoo-- four classes on them since and working fine although I still hate having holes and bolt heads, even though the bolts are Grade 5. I also hate the chains as they are more vulnerable than wide strips of belting.... but it seems to be holding up well enough and it's pretty easy to change / repair.
