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.
OK first piece of the arena for the fair I purchased today. Its the mesh tent netting to protect spectators by containing the ammo being shot by the robots.
Here are pics of the mesh o. The 10' gazebo. We will start with 10 ft and expand if the fair permits the additional space.
If I mount some kind of lighting inside the tent this could make an excellent way for spectators to watch the action.

Sam forwarded it to me and I thought it would be a great way for my exhibit of robots to make it to California ! What does the EZ Robot community think should I do it!?
We picked up our first 10' x 10' tent. I believe the real measurement is 10' 8" square. The mesh kit I posted earlier matches this tent and from the same brand Ozark trail. We are waiting in the stupid long line to check out. The tent is on sale for 89.99Hey Josh,
Paper building are awesome and then throw a coat of resin on them.
This is a hat we did for Burning Man but I think would work for what you want if you make them bigger.
You'll have so much fun.
Hey Mike,
I will be at Maker Faire San Mateo this year.
DJ are you coming?
Josh, Here is a cool looking gizmo you may be interested in. A little bit pricey though. You may be able to find it cheaper elsewhere.
