OK guy's !! ;D

I'm off and on to work on my project backstop!!
I've scored material and am in the process of delivering it home this will take me till the weekend.




Blocks are 12" x 12" x 19" covered in plastic already....




there will be 6 backstop setups built. The first is 5' X 5' as you see in the picture enclosed... The rest will be 3' x 4'.



my thoughts are to put them on pallets or use some scrap 4 x 4, I have with some scrap plywood for bottom ,sides and top..

ratchet them together, put on pallets, then cover with ca-mo burlap or ca-mo waterproof nylon, so as my wife puts it, this will help when the neighbor's look up from the street!!

I will keep this posted as the work completes..

Now where can i get ratchet straps cheap??

here is progress so far:

started with wood

this is my hunting partner laying it out

securing



strapped

blind material added





finished!!


still need to get big target done in need of 25' strap
decided to put cut 4 x 4 underneath to get off the ground

cost so far $7.00 / strap
$20.00 for blind material total = $27.00

Jamaltwy,
Dang your setup looks sweet!! But as for the rachet straps try Wal-Mart in the automotive section. They usally have em pretty cheap.
