Tried to melt some ammo brass in there tonight. 30 psi of propane. I got the brass to sag, but not melt.
Need to study some more metallurgy.

Probably gonna need some oxygen. My great uncle bought brass forgings from a friend’s shop right next door to his. I worked for him part time in high school. All they used was natural gas and o2.

Nice, what are you using for a back stop?
Nothing yet. It is on a hillside with about another 20+ ft rise behind it, all covered in oaks, so I’m not overly concerned. Still, I will start piling brush behind my targets and bucketing dirt over it. Over time, I will have a full backstop.

Got a little closer to finishing my 200 yd range. My concrete blade wore out before I could finish the seat and trimming off the overhang in a couple places on the shooting bench. As you can see by the poles this thing is built on, I don’t like any wobble. Those telephone poles are set about 2 1/2’ in the ground.

Every once in a while I get a bug. Call it Renaissance Man stuff, curiosity, or I just want something better/customized. Either way, I am always looking for a better "way'.
So, a little over a year ago i got into sewing nylon gear. Belts, pouches, low-pro ballistic plate carriers and such. I dont get the time to do as much as I want, but the process of learning is worth it.
