Making a Knife and Axe Throwing Target

[@matthewbittenbender9191]

Well done! End grain targets last a lot longer and stick weapons better than plank board targets of any kind. My only suggestion is to make the target stand taller and perhaps more vertical, but that would be a matter of preference I suppose.

[@jenniferaho1169]

I like the move ability of this design. I’m going to try this out. Thank you!!!

[@mailman19805]

Would a heavy axe spilt those blocks being they’re so short? I suppose being sandwiched in and tied together with the band boards helps to prevent splitting to extremes somewhat.

[@TORREX-A.D.]

Finally the way I wanted to make one. much more quiet not loud like just the 2x10s

[@Gnap1427]

i just made this one today. Great video. I made this for my daughter for x-mas.

[@michaelcstrang]

The target looks great but too low. Longer legs to bring it up about another foot total would be the perfect height.

[@Krazykal]

Show how you did leg hinges in more detail please

[@jonquisknight1126]

How long are your boards in the back

[@c0nnys1]

I really did lol when the lady hit the bullseye after your misses thinking if that was me I would have been pissed

[@wcweems]

Would you be willing to share the dimensions?

[@MattHenderson56]

What type of wood were you using here?

[@lakebreeze9016]

I'd like to know that as well.... It'd be super helpful if he told us that.

[@Lady_Violet]

I was thinking of cutting up a railroad tie for this build. Thoughts?

[@zombiejoe13]

That would probably work great 👍🏻

[@M1ckyMack]

I think these are 6x6 blocks. Just my guess. Great video! I’ll definitely be making a target soon!

[@rickershomesteadahobbyfarm3291]

Why did you wet the wood?

[@zombiejoe13]

To help prevent it from splitting

[@claudiahensler5330]

Amazing content Joe!

[@iceix2118]

What are u spraying on it

[@zombiejoe13]

I put water on it before every use to help prevent the wood from splitting as much

[@zrecz7957]

What's the song in the vid? Thanks

[@zombiejoe13]

I can’t remember but I think I just searched “royalty free Viking music” and found this song

[@zrecz7957]

@@zombiejoe13 thanks I'll try to find it

[@TheGamerDadAZ]

are those 4x4s?

[@markalton7762]

They look like 6x6s

[@iceix2118]

I actually came here looking for something like this. I'm only off for 3 days this month, I'd like to build a nice target

[@juliebrinkman7719]

love the board!

[@davidblah-7215]

First off love you I have those boards at my house and I will be making out today. Also I was going to add, what no cartwheel through but alas you attitude towards the end.❤️✊🏾👍🏾

Glad you enjoyed the video!

It's kind of funny how much better the girls are at it.

[@bradpage6450]

Are those 6x6s?

[@zombiejoe13]

Yup

[@matthewbittenbender9191]

@@zombiejoe13 for the record, how thick did you cut those 6x6s? They look thicker in the beginning, but seemed to fit a 2x4 frame in the finished product.

[@kennethkenton8416]

Yes, I noticed the same thing. Please let us know how thick the 6 "x 6" pieces are. I would really like to make mine using 3 1/2" pieces instead of 5 1/2" pieces, due to the difference in weight.

[@kennethkenton8416]

Actually, now that I look more closely at the beginning of the video, the pieces must be 3 1/2" thick. Otherwise, if they were 5 1/2" thick, the pieces would be perfect cubes, since 6" x 6" lumber is actually 5 1/2" x 5 1/2", meaning that each piece would have been 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 5 1/2", which is clearly not the case from watching the video.

[@zombiejoe13]

I believe I cut the pieces at 4” long. They stick out about 1/2” past the edge of the 2x4’s

[@tiffanyhaughton5884]

Woah links to the weapons please!

[@zombiejoe13]

The throwing stars and big throwing knife you can see being made in my other videos.

[@eab6066]

I want a set of bats !

[@liamwolf7525]

Get larger circular saw blades

[@zombiejoe13]

No

[@VoreEnjoyer-x8j]

Why spray the wood?

[@danielvazquez1202]

Is that water that you’re putting over the wood ?

[@zombiejoe13]

Yup, it’s to prevent the wood from splitting as much. Dry wood splits easier than wet wood.

[@danielvazquez1202]

Awesome man! Thanks for replying !

[@lilycuellar8408]

This is bad-ass!

[@firejoe283]

How much did this run you?

[@zombiejoe13]

I don’t remember how much but I made this when wood was really expensive so it would be much cheaper for you to make it now.

[@f.demascio1857]

Show me you don't know how to use a circular saw without telling me... Really though, nice build.

[@unalguien1347]

thats cool and all but why didnt you just use a crafting table bro, its like 4 wood

[@mrmicro22]

Great concept. I will build it higher.

[@justinwells2451]

Bro..............I didn't know you where a rich man 😆

[@zombiejoe13]

My most expensive project yet lol, I should have made the target out of gold instead. Would have been cheaper lol.

[@kevine9986]

Why don't you turn the 4x4.and use the saw. Duh
