What happens here

Next, the creator attaches two long wooden planks vertically, positioned along the outer edges of the framed target block assembly. These planks serve as the main upright supports for the target. Using a power drill and screws, he fastens each vertical plank securely to the horizontal frame of the target face. Following this, he places another wooden plank horizontally across the top of these two vertical uprights, connecting them and adding structural rigidity to the upper part of the target stand. This top brace is also fixed in place with screws.

Goal: Create the main vertical structure and top connection for the target stand.
