    I'll knock up a DIY one.
    I used a pound shop stainless ladel head for a bell when I made one. Doesn't work too badly ('cause I don't ring it much!)

    Try red bob on here, excellent piece of work if he still makes them.

    We bought two of these for use in our club, but have never used either of them:-

    We are still using our RedBob bell targets - and it looks like they will last forever (we have tried shooting them, but they refuse to die!) so these "posh types" are not likely to be called into action and so if anyone would like to save £40 (and postage) on each of them they can be seen and collected from RMTC any Tuesday or Thursday evening for £100 each.

    They would be ideal for home use as well as club use as they are completely self contained - just hang them up and plug them in to turn the lights on.....and shoot!

    I've just made myself one and used a reception bell with a spring loaded bolt in front of it so it doesn't hit it too hard, seems to be working so far.

    As above, beautiful things that work really well.

    Here’s the one I bought from him:

    Reasonably priced too

    I have a Red Bob bell target, it does not have the inscribed face plate so it's difficult to actually have a match. It was made to hold 17x17cm paper targets with the bell in behind. Is there anyone around that I could get a faceplate made to convert it in to normal use.

    If not I may have to invest in a"posh one"

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Made this myself a week ago.
    Not the prettiest carpentry, but it works perfectly. Fitted with £3 LED lights, faceplate and cheap hotel bell off fleabay as noted above.





    If your after a faceplate, the sellers fleabay tag is neil-t2112 I believe he still has a few available.
