Popular Post Jez_Armstrong Posted September 14 Popular Post Share Posted September 14 (edited) It's something we're lacking here in the south east, so when a visit to the private range I use the owner asked me what was something that's missing down this way and I jokingly said "Build a killhouse" And he said OK 😂 So now K42 is getting it's own killhouse which I can't complain about even if we are doing all the work, this site isn't going to be a walk on public typical skirmish place but once it's done it will be an invite only to other teams we want to run with Here's some progress photos from the first 5 hours between two of us on day one Edited September 14 by Jez_Armstrong Nick G, GeorgePlaysAirsoft, Galvatron and 8 others 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudotectonic Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Oi m8 you got a planning application for that? If you are going for the 28 days Class B "temporary use of land" you will want to keep things fairly temporary. Like event tents, event ground covers, etc. Or you can do these fairly sophisticated event structures made of scaffolding, like big stages or event seating or even obstacle courses if you so wish. Although if the location is SSSI then I guess you can't do airsoft in it because it is arguably a type of "war game" as defined by law which is not allowed for the 28 days Class B.

Pseudotectonic Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I was afraid you were gonna build some sort of multi-storey medieval arena out of pallet wood and have people walk on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at my local tip here in Dover yesterday and saw at least 5 of them just thrown in the wood bin. Seemed such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhouse Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Best thing to do is find a local business who gets lots of 'white' pallets and doesn't re-use them, that'll mean they have to pay to get rid of them and will probably let you have as many as you like for free.

Win / win! Only downside with random pallets is the random sizes they come in Rogerborg and ak2m4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
