Skietstoel vs Skietraam

[Wayne]

I am not sure how some are going to react to this, but is it not possible for those with chairs to place photos of their chair. This will give those that want to build chairs some good ideas.

Wayne, not a bad idea to build your own chair! However, I've made a few calculations, and unless you have access to cheap steel and equipment, it?s not necessarily cheaper to build your own chair! The guys who build these chairs, have been around the block a few times and know the pitfalls...

Good luck anyway!

As ek net ook n stuiwer in die armbeurs kan gooi.

Conrad was die eerste man wat by my jakkalse kom skiet het en ook my 1ste kennismaking met die besigheid. Hy het met raam geskiet en ek is amper seker dit is sy bakkie wat Geno opgesit het(foto)

Ek het vir my ook raam gemaak en begin. Maar later na Alan Truter se stoel oorgeslaan. Hoekom? Vir my was die hoof rede dat jy met jou skietlig soek en skiet. Baie gouer in aksie. ja ek het jakkalse verloor wat vinnig verskyn en ek dan skielik moet ek my geweeer gryp. Nou is die oog weer weg. Raak moeg om geweer vas te hou. Terug na handlig. O daar is hy. Terug  na geweer met sy lig op. Het my eie jakkalse in daardie tyd lig en roepsku gemaak deels as gevolg van dit.

So vinnig en stil in aksie is vir my die hoofrede.

Groetnis Freddie

Eugene, I agree. if you have to get someone to make it for you or you have to buy new material, very expensive. I used a stub axle and hub from a vicon lucerne rake, works well as you can set the bearing tight to work as a brake. built a battery box under seat, used some ideas from Alan Truters chair. Stone helped me with the platform and bits on the chair, but it is very stable, a bit heavy, jakkies don,t like it. Will try get photos of chair loaded, if I can not get it right, who can I email them to to put them on for me?

Wayne, You can send the pictures to me if you do not get it right. Somewhere on the forum is a thread with photos of shooting chairs.

Nou praat ek van 'n hele paar jaar terug. Ek word uitgeroep na Dick Daly van Daly Ford daar in Potch om jakkalse te skiet op die voorwaarde dat 'n baie goeie vriend van hom Rudi Muller saam met my moet kom. Op staanplek 2 sit ek die roeper aan en binne 15 sekondes kom 'n jakkals in gehardloop en ek briek hom met die mond. Terwyl ek die sneller trek merk ek nog 'n jakkals se oog op 15 grade regs van die jakkals. Die skoot het geloop en onmiddelik herlaai en die skoot getrek op die tweede jakkals. Rudi het onmiddelik uit sy vel gespring en ges? dat dit binne 2 tot 3 sekondes was. Soos dit nou maar is van opgewondenheid het ons onmiddelik die twee jakkalse gaan optel. As dit nie vir die skietstoel was, sou daar nie nog 'n jakkals gel? het nie.
Ek het vir Rudi die aand in die stoel laat sit en hy het vir die eerste keer drie jakkalse geskiet. Hy kan nou nog nie uitgepraat raak oor daai aand nie.

Hier is jou fotos. Bietjie laat , maar tog.
Lyk sommer na n lekker stoel.
Definitely not something to laugh at.

Freddie, thanks for the help. Just for interest sake, the rifle holder on the chair swivels on a type of ball joint, from a Mini steering rack. You are able to set it tighter and it has a lock ring. The chair swivels on a stub axle and bearing. The seat is tilted back a bit. The height of the rifle rest is adjustable and so are the arm rests.
Hoping that others will also put pictures of their chairs on the forum.

Wayne, looks 100% to me!!!
