We have been disussing setting up a booth area to show off our robots and also have a small airsoft robot arena to battle in
So far we have Bret , myself and Alequa my brother coming. I made this thread so we are not discussing things off topic on others. Here is trossens arena for ideas but we can make ours different.
I hope you guys make it to the Maker Faire in San Mateo, CA later in 2013. I live 1 mile from the fairgrounds where it is held each year. Totally cool event!
Part of the problem with our arean is that it is going to have to be portable - as none of lives in that area. My car is not very big so I don't know how much room I will have to bring stuff other than my bots and some clothes. I can make some buildings out of foam core board that can be assembled on site but I don't know how much abuse they can take from the battle bots.
I have a trailer hitch and could bring a light trailer. I imagine making all the frames from pvc will make them light. What do you think of making the frames from buildings out of pvc and then Velcro material to it that has been painted to resemble a urban building.
I think for demonstration purposes that would be fine.
Hey Josh, what is the date for this MakerFaire?

Josh, that's awesome. Contact Us and we'll help you
Hey! I am only 45 minutes away from the N.C. State Fairgrounds. Count me in. I have a new robot named Sonny, in the works. Hope by June he will be presentable.
I am sure looking forward to meeting all you guys!
