Couple New Home Brew Builds
Just finished building these 2 new HOME BREW's.
These are going to end of being my new favorites, these things are tiny at only 4" in height and 5" width.
Can't wait to get them set up in the field. May end up trying to do some cheap camp job on them also?

Those are cool Brett. I look forward to seeing some pictures from them. You should post a how to as well as a cost breakdown.
Re: Couple New Home Brew Builds
Looks pretty good.
Can't wait to see the pictures.
One question. While setting them up how do you know where the target area is at?
