CQB-roller dome

can someone make a poster for this?

I am thinking Noon until 7pm every sunday in Feb/March.
$10 for club fees
$35 rentals (includes, gun, BBs, battery, clothing, protective gear and club fee)
give link to the site
short explanation of what airsoft is

if you make them colour but not crazy colour that will drain a printer I can make a few copies. Make them for legal size paper not letter.

What about a build / gun day before feb? I'll be at the college in Jan. so I'll see if I can get any matterial. Dout it though.

I am gone from Jan 14-28th. I would love to do something right at the start of the new year.

Can we say January 6th (sunday)? We will collect some of the material then and make a tester.

I have found a place to get LOTS of cardboard. City furniture has piles of it that they just chuck out. Mind you I don't have the house to store it or the truck to get it but it's an option.

The 6th. sounds good as long as I don't get stuck working.

sounds good. We'll go with that date then

When and where do we meet? figure we'll discuse at the christmas thing but best to post incase others want to come. And a question are we working on just stuff for walls etc. for cqb or are we working on cannons and such as well, not nessisarily cannons but props?

Jason and I can both make the 6th. just need a time and place.

so the 6th theres gonna be a game?? im in:D:D

no not game, build!!!

and build they shall

still need a time and place.

Who has tools?

me and Jason we are carpenters.

Anyone decided on a design yet?

L sections?

Bottom Brace Walls?

Snap-togethers?

depend on matterials available.

Looks like we will be fronting a small bill to gather materials from Home Depot or something. A bunch of 1x1x72 square beams and whatever we can get cheap for paneling (most likely compression board).




As you can see from the mock-ups. The basic 1x1 frame, consists of 2 1x1x72's and 2 1x1x36's. A split sheet of compression board is simply nailed or stapled to the frame. Frame is most likely to be screwed together, depending on available costs or materials.

2 forms are most likely to be made, L and bottom bracket. I personally hate bottom brackets due to the trip hazzard. Mind you, using nothing but L shapes doesn't make much for a hallway... More thought needs to be put into the designs (half side bottom brackets for hallways?). Again, portability is a must for all of these (which bottom brackets are not).

Quick example using L corners (for stability) and snap-connectors for straight walls.

Jason and I are going to raid the dumpster at home building center at 09:00 If people want to meat us at the Tim Hortons on Central at 09:20 we can figure out where to go from there. Just a heads up If you are coming you will want to bring Gloves, safty glasses and hearing protection if they have it.

I won't be free until after 1:00pm. Feal free to spend $20 at the hardware store on 1x1's, screws, dowels...whatever else you think we'll need Bill. I'll drive out to your place at 1:00 if that sounds good.

Can we build any where else? we can use my place if we have to but it would be good if we can build some where else.

Might be able to get some plywood from work, Thats a big might.

we can use my carport...covered but not heated.

Any chance someone could grab the prices of some 2x2x8's at Home Depot (or elsewhere if cheaper). Cheapest and most common cut, save some $$$. Can always cut them down or leave them at 8 (just harder to transport).



This CQC really needs the walls to be anything, so have people had any luck on getting materials? If not, does anyone have any other design ideas. We will loose a lot of money building if we just wing this. I have no problem donating some time and money to build these but only if they don't suck.

If we make 4'x8' walls with a peace of ply wood atached to a wood frame we can make corner clips that use a peace of dowling to conect them. or another peace of wood predrilled to conect them on the top side. basicly if we use screws to atach stuff togeather we can take it apart and put it back togeather multiple times.

I posted this in the gen. meetings, incase some people quit watching this thread. and it just seemed like the right place for it.

Sounds good on the doweling. 4x8 walls might be a bit hard to ship in a cover truck but I am sure they will work waaaaay better then a 6x3. This should be interesting to see how this all turns out.
