Homemade Paper Tuner
« on: March 09, 2012, 04:21:00 PM »
 

Hey guys saw one of these on you-tube and it looked like a commercial version. I wanted to see what you thought of my homemade version? You shoot at it and then turn the handle to advance more paper.

OOOHH, very nice!  Good work.  Much more fancy than my cardboard box with freezer paper taped on.

Very Nice!  I need to rebuild mine.  A wayward arrow took out part of the frame.

For the record, it was a buddy of mine shooting!  :)

Looks good. I'm going to have to build something like that since these Beman MFX arrows fly so fast I can't see them.

That looks great and I'm sure works very well!  I made once out of 100% PVC once but it didn't have a crank -- I like yours better!

Very nicely done, what kind of paper rolls do you use

Mine is a scaled down model that uses rolls of wax paper

It was just some paper I had from a hobby store that I made templates out of,the wax paper would be better. Thanks for the comments.
