My family has some land where we’d like to build a backstop on. Around here, railroad ties are expensive. So, I was wondering if this would work:
I’d like to make a large box. At least 8 feet tall. It would have 4x4 corner posts. And it would be framed with double thick 2x4 boards all around. Making it 3” thick. And I’d fill it to the top with fill dirt.
I’m thinking the box would be 3 feet thick. Maybe 12 feet wide.
Would that be a sufficient backstop?
