Title: Spoon Spinner Targets
Post by: TooJung2Die on September 29, 2013, 12:26:09 PM
I had a length of threaded rod and some square tubing laying around.  I have a little home hobby stick welder. An idea popped into my head and here is the result. I thought the handles on the spoons were too long so I cut them off and welded them to washers. As the targets get destroyed I can easily make new ones. It's a fun addition to just punching holes in paper.  :D  The little spoons really fly when hit.

I'm thinking about hanging some silhouettes. Any ideas on how to make them or find them?

I made two of those quite a few years ago...only I used copper pipes that stick into the ground.  Definitely not as solid as yours.
