Home made sustainable 1" spinning targets (Video)

In this video, I show you how to make heavy duty sustainable spinning targets that will not break the bank. The one thing I did not show in the video is that you must drill out the 1/4" hole at the top of the A1011 steel target from 1/4" to 17/64 or .2656. If you do not enlarge the hole they will not spin nice on the 1/4" rod as they fit too tight.

Below is a list of things needed:

  • 1/4" steel rod (Home Depot)
  • 1/4" ID Vinyl Tubing (Home Depot)
  • 1/8" A1011 Steel Targets (See below)
  • 1/4" x 3" lags (Home Depot)
  • 1/4" Flat Washers (Home Depot)
  • 1/4" Lock Washers (Home Depot)
  • Black Paint (Home Depot)
  • White Paint (Home Depot)
  • Bench Vise 
  • Hammer
  • Large Adjustable wrench

The steel dude on eBay is awesome! His name is Keith and he can make you anything from steel, he is fast and his prices are reasonable.
I bought 40 targets for 40 bucks 1/8" A1011 Steel plate. He will make whatever you want and will quote you before anything starts.

Here is his contact info on eBay.
