here is some old cedar I made into a new tank trap!
Let’s see some of those repurposed material projects!

Looks like you’re ready for when the tanks roll in, except I don’t see evidence of the spare mags loaded with armor-piercing rounds.

TV stand made from an old copper water tank....
Old paraffin lamp converted to run on an 18v makita battery (with LED flicker flame).....
Old petrol can made into a plant shelf....
Gas bottle wood burner.....
All made to go in a little cabin I built out back from reclaimed (well, probably 90%) materials.....

No mention of airgun in title Michael (and in general discusson) so assumed it was an open topic.
I do shoot from the cabin however.

Been there done that. There was a thread under "general discussion", named something like "your other hobbies". And it was locked soon. Not related to air guns.

The brick in the pillars is repurposed from work done on my house. The Avenger and P35-177 stocks are repurposed church pews that my church was throwing away. The squirrel was repurposed for dinner.

I don't buy wood for stocks or at least I haven't yet. All have been scraps from other projects or something being discarded. The cherry in this stock was left over from a bed I made my oldest grandson. I guess I should make a furniture project from walnut so I could make a stock from the leftovers.

Repurposed one of these clamp levers.....
.....to be a bolt handle for this action.....
Being able to adjust the angle of the handle on the rifle (just undoing one M5 bolt and rotating lever on the splines) is a nice option to have.

Repurposed old 4x4s from a job into a backstop out back at my shop, cost maybe a dollar for screws. 60 yds from bench.

Waiting on the weather to warm a bit, then the angle-iron and plywood crate that the log-splitter arrived in can become a new shooting bench, a target stand and perhaps a few more useful things. Nuts and bolts, 6010, 6013, or 7018? Who knows...

When I got my bottle several years ago I had recently finished a large dresser for myself. The main wood is cherry but the drawers are cypress. I had some left over and repurposed it into a tray to hold and protect my bottle and hold some related odds and ends.
