    Moultrie I40 Stand and Target Backstop

    Weak projects I finished today. One is a copycat of Smart's I40 stand and the other is so simple a 5th grader could do it.

    Moultrie I-40 Mount:
    Plywood base attached to a cyclone/hurricane fence pole using metal to wood brackets that fit over the pole. Cut holes in the side for a 1/4" heavy duty zip tie. The little metal knob on the back of the camera goes through the board to secure it at the top. I can also add a small bungie cord if I want around the side tabs.

    The fence post will be slipped over a t-post that is in the ground near the feeder. I drilled a hole through the fence post and the T-post. I'll be using a small bolt/nut to keep it from spinning on the t-post.

    Thanks for the tech support, Jason!

    Project #2 speaks for itself. I just started shooting a recurve and I needed something to catch the arrows when I miss the target (every other shot). The carpet is hanging loose (not attached/tight) to help stop the arrow. It's stapled along the top. Just used spare wood left over from my bow blinds. It's around 5' x 5'. Maybe a little smaller.

    It will be tempting to aim a little right of the target and shoot some lemons off of my wife's tree!

    Nice work Bobby..... Make sure when you set it, you use that IR aim feature so you know your "trigger beam" is in the right area. First time out I set mine too high.

    Haven't seen a camo I-40 yet....

          Thanks Charlie. It was $199 on ebay with free shipping. Camera, camo stickers, and 2gb SD card. I'll probably scoop up another one soon.
