I've been looking at steel targets because I find them more entertaining when you take people out and for my purpose of shooting, I find then useful for hit confirmation.
My only issue is theyre kind of spendy.
The second part of this is I want to learn how to weld, and my father in law knows how. So I figured it might be a good first step at welding. I guess I should say id be building the stands, then cutting out the target portion into the desired shape. That's not what the question should be about. Just building stands for them.
I dont know much about the materials though. What kinds of steel would i need, and what's kinds of places would i buy the metal at?
I figure it might be a hair cheaper than buying them online. Or am I wrong? I wouldn't have to buy a welder or any equipment, just supplies.
