Dueling Tree Concept

I’ve seen the dueling trees that are available and although they are nice I’m looking for something just a little different.
What I would like, is a dueling tree with 6 targets on each side ranging in size from 1.5” down to .25” decreasing in size by .25”. The targets or paddles would swing back 90 degrees out of site when hit, not flip 180 degrees to the other side. The shooter to hide all their targets first wins. Also, if there would be a way to have a flag on each tree and when the smallest target is hit the flag flips up indicating the winner? Kind of like the old bell targets. Maybe make it so larger targets could be used also at longer distances??
I reached out to one metal shop and they didn’t think it would be feasible. I don’t have any experience in metal work so I have no idea if it’s feasible or not.
Any metal workers out there, what do you think??
I attached a paper target of the tree and also a pvc concept. I tried the pvc concept with come paddles I have where I cut a notch in a 3/4" pvc pipe and ran a metal rod down through the pipe and paddle for it to spin on. it's very crud but worked to some degree. However, the smaller targets bounced back forward so I would need something to hold them back. Maybe a magnet. I'll mess around with it more this weekend.
