What were the dimensions of the packed feather arena again? I may have a trailer, and indeed a space to store at my parents place (Ipswich). Will know for certain by thursday... There is room to set it up there too now that I think about it. Not undercover, just a concrete slab.

Hi yall,
this is the proposed storage site for the featherweight arena... Plan is poly and floor panels in 2 stacks on the sleepers, all generously wrapped the in a tarp prophylactic. I also have some corrugated sheeting to put ontop if it seems necessary. Should provide complete protection against sun and rain from above and insects from below. Advice / recommendations as always are welcome Smile


My folks are also open to the arena being set up on the concrete infront of the carport and comps being held there Very Happy Its not undercover unfortunately, but we have a decent number of tables and chairs, and can set up most of the garage as the robot pit area. Importantly, they also have a BBQ, and are welcoming hosts. It would be hard to match the hospitality of Steve's place, but I think we could make it work out really quite well. The concreted areas is about 4.5 x 4.5 metres.


Their place is in Karalee (east of Ipswich), about 35min out of Bris, so I hope its within range of most people. Aaron has generously offered to bring it down from Toowoomba in the near future (thanx Aaron!)...Thus I think we can start to think about seeing some robot action sooner rather than later Razz I'd love to be getting something organised to take place within the next 2 months... Let me know what ppl's availability is, and it'll happen.

I'm booked out for the next two weekends, so will focus on getting some time to collect the arena after that. Event schedule wise, pick a date and I'll try hard to be there, have two robots nearly ready to go.

This event sounds good Scott. Are you going to do up a listing on the upcoming events page(or its own date listing in the state specific section)? Very Happy
