That's very nice! I see how most of it is made and it's a great idea. Would you mind me taking some of those ideas when building my own this summer if I get around to it?

That's why I post pictures on the forums!! If I didn't want anyone to see the pictures so they could get ideas,, I wouldn't post them. To be honest,, there are pictures that no one will see,, for a while anyways

Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I'm also considering ordering one of your presses, too in the future. You do great work.

I wouldn't call it "great" because I'm no expert metal fabricator,,, those guys work building cool cars and bikes

Made this paper tuner for the local archery shop. It uses the standard 18 inch X 75 yard roll of freezer paper. It's adjustable for height and head angle for shooting at a lower target. It has brakes on the top and bottom rolls to hold the paper tight while shooting

I saw your pics here and thought it was pretty cool so I made me one
Hope you dont mind

I like it also. But for the money I will tell ya what I use. I take a big cardboard box and cut out a nice square on front and back. I get paper and stretch across one side and pull tight and staple down. I then put it up about chest level on a table and put a will stop of sometning behind it and fire away. It is cheap and works great. The only down side is I tried it inside and shot through the target and ruined my air conditioner!!!! Live and learn.
