[QUOTE="Coded-Dude, post: 2236756, member: 16918"] Not a pro by any means, but I was given a good size piece of 3/8" scrap steel(no idea on its hardness) and decided to break out the cutting torch. The "round" ones are about 9" plates and the rectangle is roughly 10"x16" I have another rectangle that is about 14"x24"(has two diamond shaped orange targets one above the other) but it is WAY too heavy for the $10 Sheppard's hook hanger I bought at Lowe's. I may hang it from a tree with a chain, but haven't decided yet. The orange circles and square/diamond(not shown) are 4". Will likely be shooting .40 & .45 at these from a distance of at least 10yds(if not further). Should I attach something to the bottom of these to give them a cant or will they be fine? Thoughts, opinions, and criticisms welcomed. Besides filling up my Oxy/Acetylene tanks, I am $40 into the project(4 hangers from Lowe's). I would prefer better stands, but this was the cheapest/fastest way to get them hanging that I could think of......
