What happens here
Construct the A-frame stand that will hold the target face. Use additional 2x4 lumber. Start by building a rectangular base on the ground that is slightly larger than your target face. Then, cut two longer pieces of 2x4s at an angle at one end to form the uprights of the 'A' shape. Attach these uprights to the long sides of the base frame using wood screws and a drill/driver, ensuring they angle inwards towards the top. Finally, add cross-supports (stretchers) between the uprights and between the legs for added stability and rigidity. These supports will also provide attachment points for the target face.
Goal: Construct a stable and sturdy wooden A-frame stand to support the target.
