I use a box with rags hanging in it, canted slightly forward with some channels leading to a hole. The bin sits just below that. For your rags, cut a slot in the top of the box, drape rag over a wire clothes hanger, dangle it in. I use 3 layers which is complete and utter overkill.

Well... Snakeskin really isn't a colour. But more to the point, patterns aren't defined or even mentioned. A Nerf gun has multiple colours in various patterns. Even "digital camo"... Is a Nerf gun "two tone"? Would an m4 painted to look like one be two tone? I'd say so. It states predominantly a bright colour, but doesn't go on to mention the other "49%" nor does it prohibit patterning, or combinations. It's only intention is a differentiation to real looking weapons... So I'd use any colour mentioned, or colour combination. As a citizen, my job is to follow the law, not the law plus some other stuff not mentioned. It's against the law to steal... But selling someone a biro for £1, when they could get it for 70p is arguably stealing 30p. But that's not illegal. It's not taking advantage, it's just not following rules that don't exist. To be honest... It's down to an individuals choice, which they might have to ultimately defend in court. And by that, I mean the retailer and not the customer.

That's the thing... It doesn't have to be solid at all. The act states "principle colour" which could mean all sorts of things. And it's also pretty impossible to measure. The whole 51% thing... Is it surface area? On which surfaces? In use? not in use? How is it measured? What is the definition of "bright"... Is it a reflective index? Does it have defined ral codes? It's all horrendously vague. I'd personally sell certain dips as two tone... And I'm a retailer.

I have another to add to it as well... So 6 x 4.5m....big old boy.

New gazebo for the pop up shop... Looks pretty badass... As badass as a gazebo can look, that is.

Their not available until Feb... But I just contacted alpha.

I saw these the other night... Far better than the incentive designs one. And so cheap, compared. I'll bash one on order.

Well, Chock... That's excellent! I'll have a proper look tomorrow when I have a keyboard and monitor at my disposal! Thanks for that...

Yeah... I'm trying to get my head around what I actually wanted. I made a free one, but it's covered in ads... So I need to do some reading, I think... I want a shop mixed with a blog... Kind of... This is me This is the stuff I do This what I sell Here's some video and a gallery This is how to contact me I managed it quickly on the free one... But I wouldn't have the first idea how to do it on a hosted page, with my own domain name.

That's about it really... I need a site. I can get my domain name, but after that, I'm fully stumped. I've found Wix and some other stores, but they all look like what they are... Free sites for advertising Wix, etc Anyone fancy talking to me about it?

So... Some slides ready for their dip... All cheap guns for display purposes. Green flame, blue flame, splats, cartoon, wood burl. Then multicam mp5k, some various woodland knives, and some red, and blue marbles... Should be a nice little selection.

I have been making enquiries, actually

No, I'm just dipping at the mo... I will be selling film at a later date, but not in the timescale you would want, I'm sure

Running, and traversing to the area of owning with any luck... Either that or I have a fetish with MP5 variants. lol But you should also see the hydro dip film stocks!

I bought... Lots...

Why not just make the box from scratch? It's a simple enough design you want :-)

Rift is usually 100 strong. Quiet days are 90, busy days are about 120... 100 is quite average. I think farm buildings would be the best bet... Old converted building, plus some unused grasslands... I'm positive I could source that for the price. Derelict buildings... That just takes searching... Again, possible.

Not really guesstimations... The numbers of players are solid. What they pay is established. The number of games per month is genuine. The sale os BB's and gas, thats based on the number of cases sold and their cost prices against sale price. And the 37k for premices was based on a quick search of viable warehouses. Granted, finding one would be a chore, but there are plenty of them about that would be within that price range (including rates, etc) and suitable in my local area... obviously adjusted for location... But still. And the 30k... I wouldnt want to earn much less than that for owning and running a business. The numbers are... More or less... Solid. At least for the purposes of a forum, and offhand comment

Well... It could, but only eventually.. My local field/company has a regular 100 players, 3 games a month... Thats 72 grand alone in walk-on fee's... Add rentals, etc... Another £5400+, plus sales of BB's, gas, etc... Thats £77 grand, excluding sales which can easily top 10-15 grand in profit ... Assume 37k rent and rates, insurance... That gives you 50-55k wiggle room. Only the owner need make a real wage... So call it 30k wage. That leaves 20-25k to pay marshalls, etc... And you only need to pay them one day a week. The VAT threshold is £81k... With some wiggling, you can stay under that... And all this only assumes reasonable turnout, high rent, high wage, low sales and still leaves a lot of room spare...

Yeah... Far too weak... You need neoprene or silicone, closed cell foam. Preferably that can take about 204°c

It's something like texas knife making... The UK... A mate just said he has silicone foam. Didn't ask where he works. But if it's any good... I'll find out.

Got some from the US... And some test pieces from the UK from a friend of mine.

I generally price things up by using "70% of new" with modifiers for quality... Also postage and fee costs.

Just brought a 90 litre dip tank, 8 litres of paint, 3m² of kydex foam, arbour press, scroll saw, fittings and pistol parts... There will be pictures! Oh yes... The well be pictures...

I think things like this can work, and the size looks good... But you need to get inventive with things. Also... You would need to get an airsoft business on board for supplies and possibly servicing. You can get your own trade accounts, but that's an expensive route with usually a £500 to 1000 minimum first spend For maybe 3 or 4 companies. And servicing... You could do with an offsite body for that as you'll be busy. Plus a business will have a customer base. Also... Vat... Don't register until you absolutely have to... Vat returns have to be done by a chartered accountant... Which aren't cheap. And hope threshold is roughly 80k... But I haven't checked that lately. Woke you would be able to claim back vat, you'll still have to do all the paperwork and get an accountant... Which offsets the savings massively. I've been looking at game arenas smaller than this which could work though.
