What have you made?

[Adolf Hamster]

had a fair few 'bridges' that were falling to bits and not safe I do enjoy seeing this a lot I have to say.

extra points if it's coated in green slime that makes it slippier than ice at the merest hint of moisture

I hope folks evolve to see that this kinda thing is absolutely up there in terms of what makes (or breaks) their games.

Once you get on to a field it is soooo obvious which sites have been maintaining structures and features/replacing stuff that's beyond repair vs ones that just let everything rot forever, tape it off and call that good.  Obviously this is not a big money industry so in some instances it's unavoidable or understandable, but since the last place I played had a fair few 'bridges' that were falling to bits and not safe I do enjoy seeing this a lot I have to say.

We're doing a lot of maintenance right now. More bridges to come, some structures to be torn down and replaced, some repaired, some new ones.

Woodland with a few knackered barricades just doesn't cut it.

The decking will be gritted and painted, for extra grip. Think skateboard grip tape, on a larger scale. 

We've had 6 of us jumping down on this one. My welds hold ?

So I have been really struggling to find a minerva piggyback Placard in stock anywhere, I really liked that some of the UKSF lads had adopted it for holding flashbangs on the front of the mag pouches so because I couldn't find one anywhere I decided to make my own 

I used an elite spanker triple molle pouch with a pistol pouch front and a thread picker removed the pistol pouches and bought a meter of multicam elastic, I have a girl at work who is a brilliant haberdasher and has done some kit repairs for me in the past so I gave it to her to do for me but unfortunately her machine couldn't get through the thick material so I went to hobbycraft and bought a pack of needles and thick thread and some beer because this was going to take absolutely ages ?

I'm more than pleased with the outcome it only took about 3 hours of using pliers to ram the needle through and I only stabbed myself about 15 times ?

After its first iteration I finally built it as it was meant, pretty satisfied on the looks of it ?

A bunch of fulcrum bangs for the team to use from the back of my rig

Should probably pre-warn the wife next time I test them too ?

fulcrum bangs

Sounds like a 1980s haircut and/or band.  What's the mechanism in those?

Me, not so much made as slightly tarted.

From this gopping abomination...

Needs more greeblies, weathering and maybe a chonky barrel - although I actually quite like the stubby look, and every gram saved on these is welcome.

Ahh

The Area 66 bridge

I couldn’t make it this weekend, now that I’ve got a face to the name, we must’ve played together at some point ?

 

[Rogerborg]

we must’ve played together at some point ?

Better than playing with yourself. I've not been there for a while but am trying to get back into it as time and fitness allow.  I'll generally be in that, or DPM 95 and a TAC-41 (or a tan G36C (or a DMR'd grey Specna SA-02 (or a cut down tan CYMA M516 (or...)))).
