Thinking about my September beach vacation. Ill be doing more surf fishing this year. While getting some things ahead, I remembered that Ill need a sand spike. So while getting the materials which included the 2" PVC pipe. Thought Ill make that target stand as well. Now I have the wood for the stand, just didn't have them in for the pic.
Here is the web site I got the instructions for the target stand. http://www.nwtf.org/tv_magazines/images/GITG_PVC_target_stand.pdf
Here is the sand spikes, I only needed one, but with the materials I bought I made two. All the metal fasteners are stainless, the spike is aluminum.
The way I figured, the target stand cost about $12 to make, the sand spikes cost $38 for the pair. Not bad when spikes like this cost anywhere from $25 to $40 a piece from what I seen on line here. By the way, to make all three you will need only one ten foot PVC pipe. Seven foot needed for the target stand, three foot for the spikes.
