Welding Work Party

Last weekend, a group of us, including Austin Chappelear, John Schmehl, Chris Davis, and Dave Stephens, got together at Dave’s place for a welding work party. We spent the day repairing and crafting new target hangers, fixing up the tripod stands with new hooks, and even mending some broken colt speed plates and wood bases. It was a rewarding day of hard work and teamwork, with everyone pitching in and helping out.

Thank you to our amazing club members and volunteers!
