$25 Turning Target Stand

Assembled stand turned toward the shooter.

Unassembled stand.

The 2 inch spacer blocks are centered between the side boards, 2 inches apart. The 2" floor/ceiling plate is used to help reduce friction when the upright turns.

Two springs are shown in the photo, but only one is necessary. Two springs were in the package, so I attached both in case a heavier target is used.

2 1/2 inch deck screws were used to assemble the stand base.

The target is turned away from the shooter when the cord is slack.

Pull the cord to turn the target toward the shooter.

Release the cord to return the target to the rest position.
