pmd Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 OK, So I got the steel (well almost all of it) .....I am making the stands...I've got the 2x4's and now I need to cut them (the 2x4's) to the proper height. The above information on stages is great - but only "Pendulum" has the heights listed. Where can I find heights for each stage? Many Thanks!

warpspeed Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 All round targets, except for those on Pendulum, are 5' high to the top of the target and all rectangles are 5'6" to the top of the target as set by transom from the shooters box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 All the dimensions of all the stages are in the Steel Challenge forum on this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warpspeed Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 AkiDale, It is a direct quote from the 2004 Steel Challenge match book. I'm sure that they meant to say Transit not Transom but it is what they printed so I figured I just put what they did, since it is their match. Personally, I like to use an Auto Level - but to each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Price Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) No connection folks here? It's not a misprint. A transom is grading tool use to set elevations in construction. Ie using a transom guarantees all teasers are the same height It's what the guys that look through the little telescope things on the highway to shoot grades Jeez didn't know this was ten years old Edited July 26, 2014 by Mat Price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
