    I made one like that years ago and just hung 3 pieces of old carpet from the top of the box so it could swing back and absorb some impact ! Also all the inner surfaces of the box had carpet glued in place! NOTE. It was good heavy carpet, not the cheap foam backed variety!! I liked the design of yours with the angled back plate! Very good thanks!!

    Nice work, better than anything I've seen for sale for indoor use.
    One recommendation I could make is that just about the best and quietest lining for pellet traps is lead flashing, the stuff roofers use. It's completely silent, lasts for ages and you can just add it to your scrap pile when it falls to bits.

    I like it, its way better than the tiny metal one I have :) and as for the metal insert I don't know what angle it sits at, but If memory serves, from a penetration perspective metal plate at a 30% angle doubles in thickness, hence why they started angling the armour on tanks :)

    I like this Tomasz it's unusual, indoor firing range. Did the pellets actually hit the metal back or did the towel stop them. Reusable pellets, even better. I want one it looks like fun. Tony

    • @CasualDIY
      @CasualDIY  2 роки тому

      Got the same thing mate. I went trough few options and haven't found anything outstanding that j would be able to recommend. You can get decent results with the dedicated countersink bit (without drill bit) but you have to be careful when using then as it's easy to go too deep with them.

  • @CRO_Bash95
    @CRO_Bash95 Рік тому

    The bunched up towel is a good BB catcher, but it ruins it quite fast, i know from experience 🤣🤣🤣
    I'd have a build like this in mind, but I'd personally use a lot of mop heads hanging from the top inside of the box. And then maybe angle the floor a bit so you're able to collect and recycle the BB-s (I wouldn't personally shoot those again but to each his own).
    Slanted steel backing is a good idea to stop any BBs that still have that last bit of kinetic energy.
    That frame for the target is a great idea, which I also had in mind, the handle is a touch of genious 🤣🤣🤣
