Rimfire Dueling Tree by Deschutes Metal Works. Unboxing and Assembly.

Dueling Tree Range video here: https://youtu.be/THiwx9sFYCg

After trying my wife's TX22, I decided to get one for myself, and also to get a Rimfire Dueling Tree so we can compete against each other.
I narrowed down my choices to the Action Targets ( https://amzn.to/2wpGp6x ) tree or the one by Deschutes Metal Works ( https://amzn.to/3dkVO99 ).
The Action Targets tree is only 40 inches tall and cost $30 more. The Deschutes tree is height adjustable as you use your own 2x4's, less expensive, and confirmed American Made by a small business metal shop, so I went for the Deschutes.
This product can be purchased at Amazon or directly from the MFG (at https://deschutesmetalworks.com/ ) at the same cost. Both options have free shipping. The version currently being sold directly by Deschutes has 3 vertical slots, the version he sells thru Amazon has 1, so I ordered directly from the MFG.
When I emailed the company I was told they had overstock of the 3 hole versions that they are selling thru at his shop, the items he ships to Amazon are the single hole type.
This video is me unboxing, spending nearly 5 minutes pulling the shrink wrap off the parts, then assembling the unit.
I needed to take about the width of a SkilSaw blade off the vertical post to get it to fit snugly into the vertical stand. I should have done the same with the base, but I used a bug ass hammer instead.
This product was purchased with my own funds, for $169.
I'll be taking it to the range soon and giving it a good workout.
