How many wanted to see Paul get all the materials from his jacket pockets?
I was at least expecting him to have the drill in there.
I'm still surprised he DIDNT!
Not the right jacket, knew immediately there'd be no jacket magic
🙋♂️
That explains why y'all can't fit as many guns in your pockets as Paul... Walking around with cordless drills and scrap lumber in your pockets taking up space...
“We’re on the carpentry range today, bear that in mind with any saws or drills you hear in the background.”
Nice
"And I'm going to use my Remington 476 Powder Actuated Fastening Tool in 22 caliber to put my frame together."
@@markh.6687 that's what I was expecting
"Yes, I wear ear protection with every cut I make."
Actually a good video to end with "Don't try this at home, this is definately not professional"
Paul: how to make a target frame.
Also Paul: Dont try this at home.
I was about to try this at home until he told me not to.
I am confusion?
😂
Fine: I won't try this at home. I'll try it at my brother's farm (where it legal to shoot).
He wasn't telling you how to make a frame he was showing you how he makes the frame
Paul we're all desperately waiting for a presentation on flower arranging
Paul Harrell and the Art of Bushido!
You need to talk to Hannah Isuzu.
You'd be floored if he did one. Remember, Rosie Greer did needlepoint to relax.
Yes..how to arrange sunflowers for destruction before they spit their seeds on you. And what about those killer plants from Star Trek TOS? Speak Mr Harrell, we are bound to hear and let not our ears fill with leperous distillment.
@@ursusthewhite9824 "Leperous Distillment"?! What is the name of Starfleet have you been drinking?? And whatever you do, don't drink any more! You're 'distilled' enough! Nobody light a match or make any sparks; Urus will explode!
Thumbs up if you were expecting Paul to break the second 4' 2x4 in half when the blade didn't go deep enough.
My thoughts exactly!
I expected him to chew it in half
Was expecting him to bust it over his knee.
“This Old House” with our new host Paul Herrell.
Hahaha
And today's presentation is over the versatility of the .22 caliber ramjet.
@@grantcook3739 ...using yellow and black box 0.22 Caliber Yellow Single Shot Powder Loads
"This Old Range" might make for a better show title.
Hi, we're out at Joe's House, today we will be showing how to build a defensive position out.
I can imagine Paul saying the following like he calls out ammo "I will be using the Everbilt #6 x 32 taper x 1/2 oval head slotted plate screws here driven by my Dewalt Atomic DCK 278 C2 running on a 1.3 Amp hour battery pack."
Paul Harrell you are a treasure. Great content. Great education.
Shooting and building projects. Two of my favorite things.
Cooking, carpentry, can you address laundry next?
Not quite there but- ua-cam.com/video/6MhoO6er_Gc/v-deo.html&ab_channel=PaulHarrell
If anyone can find where those socks go, it's Paul
Dont forget dental hygiene.
@@MrBill-mq7ti I'd forgotten about that...
Not to mention dating advice.
The legend is back and with two whole videos!!!
The only guy on Internet that I know of, who'd say that somebody else's solution is better in any way.
Paul: *buying some 2-in x 6-in x 24-ft Southern Yellow Pine Lumber at Lowes*
Cashier: Building a roof?
Paul: Nope, this is for my Giraffe target
Next week: Defense against the Savannah Scourge
Concealed Carry: .25 ACP vs. African Wildlife. "When all you have is a caliber of this size, you really have to shoot for the right part of the target" *points to giraffes head*
I enjoy your straight forward attitude.. "It is what it is, now deal with it" attitude. Real life situations.."..Make the most of ones situation, and learn to adjust to the situation presented to you.. "Every situation is different "
We've missed you
I can still count ten fingers on you, Paul. Master Craftsman status achieved.
Raise your 4 fingers+1 thumb hand if you had a jr high or HS wood shop teacher with at least one missing finger. I had two such teachers myself!
Excellent video on a high-speed/low-drag method! A little suggestion to those who might not have a lot of "skill saw" experience. Set your lumber up so that as you make your cut, one of your pieces is free to fall downward (from the end furthest from your cut), and cause the cut you are making, to slowly be opening up...as the piece begins to "fall." This method keeps the 2 pieces of lumber from pinching your blade, which, (especially on these saws that have the handle located right up on the blade area) keeps the saw from kicking back into your body. Especially when doing "quicky" one handed cuts. Try to think in terms of, "when this thing kicks back, is it going to jump up and come down into the back of my other hand or arm...or is it coming back right into my upper thigh?" It's a lot like using a chainsaw: Always have a respectful amount of fear. Try to anticipate how it's about to kill you. Don't get comfortable with using it.
Good advice, Todd. When I was younger I did products liability defense for industrial meat-cutting machine makers. The things I saw as injury due to carelessness / lack of respect were gruesome, and easily avoided with proper respect. As I used to say, "this machine is designed to cut in half a section of meat + tendons + bones. What is your hand, but meat + tendon + bones? It cuts you just as easily. The machine doesn't care if it's your hand, or the piece of meat you think you're going to cut."
Wow, Paul's hitting us with both barrels today.
It would have been excellent if his intro music would have been the theme from “This Old House” ,
Paul As Norm Abram , was not expecting that! Thank you crew for another video , nice simple design Paul, I’m gonna have to make one .
Paul, the ones I built were with 3 ft. pieces of 2 inch pvc pipe. 4 T connectors & 2 elbow connectors. Two pieces joined with a T connector make the "feet". Then two upright joined with a T topped by an elbow make the legs. Make one for each side topped by an elbow & connect with a single 3 foot piece. Makes for a great life size silhouette target frame. Quick, easy set up & take down ( leave connectors in place). Lightweight and only 3 foot across. Bundle with bungee cord for transport. Allows 6 foot height or if your backstop is lower you can assemble half for a 3 foot stand. Not saying it's better- just works for me. Happy New Year,Paul & viewers.
Good plan. How does it do in the wind?
@@PaulHarrell never had problems with the wind but the weather is more forgiving here in the south. I used to put a cross brace at the T connector midway up the legs. More stability but eventually it takes a few hits & so I omitted it as it's working fine. Some weight put on the "feet" should stabilize them in any wind that you would be practicing out in. Small sandbags would work. BTW thanks for your interest.
2 uploads today? Looks like Christmas came late this year
No, very early.
Nah it just came 11 months early
Late. He had a terrible Holiday Season dealing with a local fruitcake uprising.
Early Orthodox
Christmas came early, just in case.
Paul Harrell: Don't try this at home.
Me: DANGIT!
Out on the range, with battery-powered tools -- OK
I don’t know what it is, but as a 46 year old with extreme aadd, I find your videos extremely easy to follow and understand. I can watch your videos from start to finish and never lose attention or interest. You need to sell your videos. And thank you.
Simple and effective design. Doesn’t take a lot of time to make. Easy to break down and take with you. And it just works. I’ve been wanting to make some target stands and have designed many different ones in my head that wind up being an over engineered Rube Goldberg machine if I actually built them, just to do a simple task of holding up a target. 🤦🏼♂️ A reminder to “keep it simple”. As always, thanks Paul!
Mr. Paul,
I did as you asked and went over to Georgia Ridge Runner’s Utube video. Word to everyone else, stay with Paul’s quick design, you’ll thank Paul for he’s. I’ll put 2 of these together for a shooting event this weekend. Thanks Paul for your video.
God Speed, and God Bless the Marine Corps,,,,,,,
Semper Fi,,,
Two videos in one night? You're spoiling us!
No matter how often you do these kinds of builds. There is always at least one screw or nail that wants to do its own thing. That anecdote has _never failed be correct,_ for me in over 50 years.
Take a package of lumber yard wooden shims and bingo - tighten up your target. Nicely done
God Bless
I was thinking the same thing. Quick lockdown and still easy to take back apart when you're done
or cut the top corners of the two by fours on the ends into wedges.
Would not have to buy nothing else.
@@shawnr771 Exactly as making a stob (stake)
Paul's first episode of "This Old Range".
Bob would not have cut the 2x4s him self.
I just hit the like button immediately then watch
yep, that is Situation Normal around here
You will get the Order of Lenin for this....
You're simping for Paul Harrell and that's disgusting.
LOL
Me too , hehe...Anyone that hits the thumb down is missing an opportunity
I have heard from other You tube creators that this is possibly detrimental for the numbers.
People who try to game the algorithm have said that if a LIKE button is clicked rather quickly before watching the video that the algorithm assumes the like was from a bot.
From what others say it is best to wait until 1 to 2 minutes into the video.
This is in no way a recommendation of what you should do.
Mr. Paul I surely do appreciate the kind words and like your design pretty good probably gonna build a frame like you built too
And surely do appreciate all the kind words from the folks in the comments section on my video
Super nice of you Paul to link “Georgiaridgerunner”.
You’re a class act. 👍🏼

So - I’ve been improvising target stands out of these banner display frames discarded by my work.... and one old music stand .
Today I built two of these gems shown here..... now- I have a small fleet of target mounting devices including some to share with my buddy who provides the land to shoot on .
Great stuff as usual Paul Harrell- thanks for the tip!!
Interesting. I've wondered about your target composition. Well done. Thanks for showing.
Paul's the dad we all wish we had growing up.
I genuinely love all of your videos. Hope you are doing well! Thank you for this informative entertainment.
Been making these for years,still watched in its entirely.
I appreciate Paul's videos. There more down to earth, real life experiences. I'm not looking for "glorified" experiences. I want real world situations. Paul gives you that... Much appreciated, keep them coming..
Paul.. love your concise informative sharing. Extremely timely for me. Thank you.
I love the old school way you do your videos its like we are watching sum thing from back in the day
This is so simple even I could put one together. Thanks Paul . p.s.- Putting longer support 'outrigger' legs on the base may add some greater stability in windy conditions; i.e. instead of 2 feet per 'outrigger' put 3 to 4 feet long boards in place. Bulkier, yes, but not excessively so.
Great video. Nice simple design. One thing u can do if cardboard is in short supply is attach the targets to the 1x2's with spring clamps, 2 per side. I have seen this done often. I have seen silhouette sized cardboard backers (or cardboard silhouettes) attached that way as well. This is useful in classes, so each shooter can attach their target to a backing and clamp it in place, then retrieve the targets for eval and scoring. Sure, the clamps get an occasional bullet hole, but they are cheap and last a long time. I have seen bases made with PVC pipe and joints, with a T joint pointed vertically used to hold the 1x2. They can be partly diassembled for storage. Lots of solutions out there. But Paul's is one of the best.
I finished building one half an hour ago. Works great. Thank you Mr Harrell!
Thanks Paul for sharing! I’ve been watching more and more of your videos lately. I built the same type of target stand but I opted to used 2x2s for the upright posts. I also duct taped the upper 2/3’s of the posts based off recommendations from a shooting range I used to be a member at because this will actually make your posts last 2-3 times longer if they get hit by reducing the splintering. Once again, love your videos and thank you for sharing them!
Real simple and inexpensive target stand, great presentation Paul! I’ll probably build a few.
A simple and practical design. Thanks.
Why would you need a dad? This channel is literally free to watch
🤣
@Unknown User I suppose that’s a good point, however you’d likely have that stuff already
I can measure three times and still make the wrong cut.
I cut three times and its still too short
We get it, you're a pro.. You don't need to brag
I find that my tape measure is prone to making incorrect measurements
@@jessehayes486 , I suspect it is NOT your tape measure. Try using a different pencil.
Measure thrice and forget thrice, that’s how it works right?
Next weeks video Paul tries & evaluates the Senco Semi automatic screw gun. He also lets us know if its necessary for
multiple Targets .
Thank you Paul for all your Great videos . Good Gun Info. on this channel
Paul, using torx screws and a magnetic bit holder makes life a lot easier 😂👍
Cutting the Marine Corps way:
1. Measure with a micrometer.
2. Mark it with a piece of chalk.
3. Cut it with an ax!
😂😂😂
I haven't heard that one since the 70's. Good one.
I was in the navy , and this would be shopped out to the SEABEEs .
Thanks a ton Paul! I am trying to build my own target stand for my birthday celebration tomorrow and I wasnt sure how to go about it. The way i was going to do it would have made it difficult to take apart for transportation which is vital for my trip tomorrow. You are the man Paul!
its a good day when Paul Harrell uploads a video
I'm still healing from my last woodworking project. Congratulations Paul for not drawing blood.
This solves my problem of always having to make a pointed piece that I have to drive into the (hopefully soft) ground, which is frozen for usually at least a few months out of the year. Thanks!
"... or you end up screwing it to the table..."
Sometimes I think not giving these particular bits of advice to let people make their own mistakes :P
Drill a hole in the top of each upright, bend the ends of a piece of rebar, and this design would be great for hanging dingers. On the other hand, nails are just as good as screws for this application. While screws are better against lateral or pulling force, nails (because they're less rigid) are better against racking (twisting) force. That's why they frame houses with nails but put drywall up with screws. This design doesn't take significant force of either kind, so nails or screws are a matter of choice and convenience. In fact, you could make this frame even more portable by cutting interlocking dados (notches) in the base pieces and eliminating mechanical fasteners all together. Thanks for the video!
Thank you Very Much for showing us how to build a Simple, Easily Constructed, inexpensive and transportable target frame. With your starting us off, anyone can add any number of different features to suit their needs. Having a target frame like this will no doubt encourage more people to practice regularly. Again, thanks to you and your contributors!
Wow we don't just get shooting advice and annual Home Ec lessons, now professor Harrell is teaching shop class!
This channel keeps getting better and better.
Finally a cheap and simple solution to something essential.
That is just hilarious, Paul. Something about watching you do basic carpenter skills, which are mostly unrelated to what we have always watched you do before. Thanks for the entertainment. Oh, and thanks for the suggestion on a target stand.
Most wholesome gun channel hands down
Me: the world is falling apart. I need to use my time more wisely.
Also me: watches Uncle Paul do mild woodworking for 6 minutes.
Appreciate the info. I have been wanting to make my own for my shooting times. And you uploaded this right when I was thinking about it. Lol. Thanks again. Appreciate what you guys do for us!
A video I never thought I'd watch lol. I am entertained regardless.
Building one this week, thanks again Paul.
you remmind me of my grandad so much he would all wise start talking by saying i don't know how this works but and then tell you how why it works and how it could work better ( he was an engineer who was a form man fitter) at a power station in the work shop's in charge of 40 top machines. thank you
With the lack of real ammunition, I recently bought a laser cartridge for practice. I thought about buying a silhouette target to hang somewhere, but I became lazy. I found an old shirt and put it on a hanger. I hang the hanger over a door and try to shoot the breast pocket. I think people would enjoy you evaluating the value of those laser cartridges for training and enjoy hearing your tips on how to get the most effective training from using them. I've come to realize that they are best for people who have DAO pistols because those people can practice double-tap scenarios. For the rest of us with single-action or striker-fired pistols, there's a need to rack the slide between every practice shot.
Thank you Paul
Just built a couple of these. Simple but practical. Thanks!
I am absolutely down for the Paul Harrell woodworking series.
Steel targets next! Thanks for great content sir.
I'm quite surprised Paul used a staple gun. I thought he'd just sort of glare at the cardboard, and it would stay put out of respect!
My wife "allows" me to shoot down in the lower pasture so I stuck 2 pieces of 2" PVC in the ground about 2' (+-) and I stick 2X2's in the ground then staple card board to it... The state of NC is my backstop since I live in the mountains ;-) Whatever works for you is what you should use!!! Thanks Mr Harrell for the excellent design!!!
Nice simple design.
One .. way to go Paul. Thanks for all the videos.
this is a very easy one, but i want to see your tecnique, since i really admire your way of thinking! thanks a lot!
as expected! practical portable and disposable! cool! thanks a lot hahaha
Very nice to see your take on a target stand. I forget who I copied off of youtube, but the ones I made are very similar except they use wing nuts on long screws through the feet that allow adjustable tightness for the uprights for when you replace them with different sized wood. Still also easy to store and transport just like yours. Though with a top and bottom crosspiece to provide structure as opposed to just using the cardboard itself.
Your version is certainly easier, cheaper, and just as viable. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for sharing DIY things with rest of us. And one advice, before screwing, especially when you have longer screws and harder wood you can put tips of screws in the parafin wax. That lubrication made screws to enter in the wood much more easier.
Paul the everything guy. Thanks for the lessons that you provide for us. Good stuff man.
I like the quick and simple build. Thanks, Paul and crew!
I'm so glad you're on here man. This is such a great channel.
Excellent and simple. Thanks Paul
Wait, 2 videos today? Paul spoiling us today.
You did a nice job, For me the biggest point of using screws instead of nails for is that when I screw something up its a lot easier to take it back apart and re-due it.
Thank you Paul, for creating this 'how to,' I have been pondering on just what would work for me and my boys. I like your particular project as it is easy to build and can be done (obviously very quickly) and with minimal cost. Easily transportable and highly mobile/versatile. A good idea for sure and for certain. Thanks again...
Two videos in one day? Christmas is over Paul.
This is very helpfull! Thanks! I have made very elaborate frames before with large profile veritcal wood, problem is it only takes about one bullet to shatter a nice frame. I will use this from now and it will be so much easier to maintain. Thank you very much!
Shout-out of the year right here. Real charity right here
I could do this with my eyes shut but I just like to hear Paul talk.
As soon as I saw Paul had a video for this, I swiftly ignored all others. Why have I bee shooting outdoors for like 18yrs without a proper DIY target stand haha...
I was anxiously awaiting a newly created frame to present the leather jacket, t-shirt, meat, oranges and fleece bullet stop to the shooter, the shooter being me. Instead, I got this irresistible urge to collect all the shipping pallets I can find to staple targets to.
Two uploads in one day from Paul is the cleanest, best pleasure
That was fun! Goes to show that you don't need expensive supplies to get started with a useful education and practice tool. This would makea good scouts or entry woodworking project - plus it would be just as useful for his non ammunition suggestions.
Great video. Thanks Paul !
Well I watched both videos and either one seems to be very user friendly and if I had some steel targets his design would be very good for that. I love to see everyone's input, opinion and ideas. I am not an expert on anything so I look to you with experience for guidance. Peace To All!
Its been 3 weeks I was worried Paul caught the "Beer" very Glad to see he's not "drunk"
Figuring paul was off for the holidays and well deserved!!!! welcome back paul and yet another well put together video. we missed you.
Simple and inexpensive...works for me.
Thanks, Paul, I was looking for an easy to construct a frame. I've been propping my target against chaparral or dirt mound or anything I can find.
