Title says it all… I upgraded my catch box from a cardboard box which was starting to get a little worn down to a more sturdy and weather-proof (but still moveable, important for me!) garbage can. I saw a picture here of the same design; love that I can just take off the lid to retrieve all ammo. Ready for lots more plinking with it! I know this will be uncommon for this forum but I’ve never been much of a DIY guy at all. I’m finding getting into slingshots is starting to get me tinkering and making things; which has been a lot of fun so far.

Nice work. Very nice. How did you attach the backstop?

Thanks! I snipped off the straight part of a plastic hanger, leaving just a little bit of the curve to position it so it hooks down a little bit on the hole in the garbage can to hold itself up.

I just realized what I’m going to do with my old swamp cooler when I get a new one! 🤣

I’m thinking we should have an unorthodox catchbox challenge 😂. It’d make for a fun and funny thread. Kind of like the what are you shooting today it could just go on forever really

I cut the end out of a tote, and run a wire across the front to hold the targets. Here is a picture of what I use to hold the wire.
