Homemade Airball, anyone know how?

[maberiB]

Hi,
I heard someone saying that someone has posted instructions somewhere on the PBreview forums as to how to build your own Sup'air ball field. I'm strongly considering this. Does anyone know where I might be able to find this post? I've searched this forum high and low, with no luck.

I'd really appreciate if anyone could give me the link, thanks.

why dont you take a tarp and make a design like a beer can and fill it with foam. Same bounce, no fans

Save up all year, go to Wal-Mart around Christmas, and get those inflatable snowmen and santa's. Theres an airball field hehe

All very good ideas. I especially liked the one involving a tarp filled with foam.

Foam'd probably cost me a bundle, wouldn't it? I suppose I could always go to garage sails and pick up foamie mattresses for a couple bucks each.

...So noone knows where to find those instructions?

Thanks for all your help so far guys!

These are big *** snowmen I'm talking about here man! Like, 30 feet tall and 7 feet wide or so... When on the side they are 30 feet long, and 7 feet tall... big *** bunkers if u ask me

To bad it popped when I shot one, Don't say i was shooting fast either it was shooting around 280 fps.

[maberiB]

..Well, you were probably shooting fast!

lol


Anyone.. My question...please? *whimpers*

[SpUnKy-BoLtOn]

The post was about where to get CHEAP air bunkers. Not how 2 make them, i believe.

[maberiB]

ACtually, I think it was in a reply to the post that was selling air bunkers for cheap when someone said "There was a post on here a while ago telling you how to build airbunkers"

I would think with a pile of tarps, some cocking, and Nylon tread, you could make some. I have been thinking of making some. I wouldn't think it would be too hard. Of course they wouldn't be as nice as the ones you buy but they'd still stop paintballs.

take a blow dryer, and blow up a bunch of condoms, strap em together and ur good to go

I'd wash em' first cuz those things have that slimy oily crap all over them and I wouldn't want to rub up against them.:crazy:

[kra_z_fool]

Sorry Flanders, but thatd prolly cost a bit. Itd also gross me out horribly.

[Derekz13]

go to a news paper place and pic up some spools that they dont use (not really sup air)

for the "airball", however, you could use anything you could find to put in the tarp. eg: packing penuts, styrofoam, shredded newspaper,

you could also make some type of frame but that would be hard

[No_DAMN_NAMES]

Make frames out of cheaper pcv piping and cover it in foam. Then get a stronger nylon material and stretch it across the framing. I think that would work.

[tonysk83]

No, no, no, get inflateble matresses, someone posted a site with all different sizes, they were really tall ones and short ones, you could hold um in with posts with foam wrapped around the posts, then wrap rope around the posts
