Felt it was important to mention the spacing of the staples again for anyone
who may be doing a build to check this before stuffing with close.

From Jim at ThirdHand..
Just one suggestion for anyone following this thread. We have found that the skins
take a tremendous pounding by our bows. The skins are only attached by the staples.
The more staples the better. I staple mine every inch which might take a minute or two
longer and may cost a $1 more but well worth it. The staple itself should be put in parallel
with the board, 90 degrees to what is shown in the above pictures.
PS the wrinkles in the skins will completely disappear once the clothing is added.

One other thing I would like to add myself is before you start stuffing in the
close you may want to double check the location the target is in. It's going to
get heavy, also I chose to put mine with the sun toward it and to my back when
shooting.
