Anyone have or know where I can get a 3D tank puzzle I can cut and build from 3/16" coroplast? Nothing fancy, I just want it to look like a tank from a distance for an... uhh... "project" I'm working on. Not selling it or the design and any I cut won't survive the weekend. :D

I have a tank profile and was going to just ad some cross members but I was hoping to find something more 3D so I could turn it and not just see it from the side.

Doesn't have to be huge but big enough to easily see at 100yds. I have some 4' x 2' silhouettes but I was looking for something more 3D I could put reactive target inside so it go boom when hit.

Something like this?

I set it up to be cut from 3/16" materials and just loose fit. 23 x 47 "

I've attached a DWG and sketchup file if you'd like to use it. It's zipped of course.

Thanks guys, I sort of ran out of time but I did get some silhouettes done for the shoot.

Here is the range view, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iqsBCPj4ws

Next year I should have more time and I'll be sure to make some more interesting targets. We had a blast (literally) none the less. The targets really added some character out there.

If anyone wants to cut target silhouettes on your bot, it's straight forward and simple with coroplast and local gun shops will sometimes put them up for sale for you. Don't forget to check your local gun club too. Not high profit, but it's something to do, simple and fun.

A binary explosive. Not Tannerite brand.
