How to build your own target stand

Since Vol. II was released, a lot of people asked where to get these target stands from.
You can buy them, or you can build them by your own. I wish to thank Mr. Dan Borton for his kind help and advice to create my first target stand. Without his help I’d never made it! So I’m happy to help others now. Maybe that your first attempts will not be perfect. But don’t give up, okay? In the end you’ll build a great target stand!
