[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 157018, member: 5"] Jeff 300: I've got a few of this type of frames in different sizes. The main part, on the left, is hinged at the top and has a very small chain on each side so it opens to a solid position each time, although, if terrain necessitates, you can open it less and it still works. The main frame has two loop eye screws in the bottom of the top cross piece. The small, inner frame, has two eye screws in the top cross piece. When the main frame is set up the inner frame hangs from the eye screws and this always gives a vertical target. The inner frame has a very small eye screw in the outer, bottom corners. The main frame has very small eye screws in the outter legs down towards the bottom.
