This is how the straw mats arrive.

 

Take two mats.

 

Put the two mats one on top of the other and start to roll, leaving a bit of space in the middle.

 

When they are totally rolled up use a few cable ties to hold them in place.

 

Soak the target in water for a day or two, then leave to drain. I used a plastic dustbin, but you need some wood and a couple of bricks to put on top because all the targets try to float. Then place target on stand and cut it.

 

Here is the stand on its own. A simple enough job.

 

Here is the base close up.
