sandstorm Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 If you are a bit short, just holler. Bet we could chip in together, maybe sell timeshares to the garage, or rent space to store kit for non-UK members so we can come to skirmish in UK without customs hassles?

DeltaZero Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Double-ish garage with a pit and three phase? BUY IT! BUY IT NOW! Double ish? Quadrouple ish you mean! 2 wide and 2 deep! We're making an offer so fingers crossed! As for storing kit for overseas people, would be happy to do that anyway, there'll be enough space in the garage roof easy!!

Tinkerton Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Dibs on the pit. Also, let us all know when the house warming is Link to post Share on other sites
scorch Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 You know what I'd do with a 4 car garage? Stud wall off a little room in the corner just for brewing in. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 But then you couldn't have four cars. But cheap beer. Hmm. What a dilemma. Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 With a mortgage and renovation work to pay for, wouldn't be able to afford four cars anyway! Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 But potentially the profits from the beer would pay for the new cars! Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 That money would blatantly get spent on airsoft stuff... Link to post Share on other sites
scorch Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 I couldn't fit four cars in there anyway... Not with all the bikes in the way. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted November 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 ^that 3 phase alone costs a fortune to install. Do it. Don't need to install 3 phase, you can get a single to 3 phase inverter/controller. A couple of hundred quid, it'll run a single tool like a mill or lathe or a lift. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/products/7840748/ I'm nearish you aren't I Delta? If you need any help, let me know.

True, you can. Sen them fitted. But you could never stop at just one machine... So you need a full 3 phase setup! Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Found someone to do my CTR mod for my TM Recoil. That's my Christmas sorted. Also done most of my Christmas shopping now, just one gift to get and I'm struggling with it haha. Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Just scored a leatherman sideclip sort of off ebay for 15 quid. It's a tool I've wanted for ages, long out of production, and it's like new. Very chuffed! Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 So last sunday I played again! First time since errr... I think jan '17, but it could be jan '16 as well. In the snow! I didn't expect these complications, though they're all a bit 'well, duh?!' Can't see bb's while snowing. Can't see sights that are snowed in ( iron sights) Can't tune hopup at field on a white background. ESS turbofan battery lasts only 3 hours on high speed and doesn't take rechargeable batteries. Evo was outfitted with both pdi 6.05 barrel and w-hop wich would overhop .25 at all but lowest setting and I had forgotten my red dot. But! I got the thrill back! All decked out in Arc'teryx thermal undergarment I was nice and comfy, crawling in the snow for a knife kill on that pesky sniper. Aaaaaah, what fun. I'm excited again! Just a lil nag: recent airsoft tech info is hard to come by these days, i've been kicked from the Airsoft Mechanics forum for being a lurker and this new media ( eg Facebook) cares more about memes and showing off than any technical experiments. Makes me sadface. Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites

Cannonfodder80 Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Tbh I'd take any tech advice on Facebook groups with a big pinch of salt as a hell of a lot of the info is third hand and/or complete *badger*s Link to post Share on other sites

AirsoftSniperForum still performs tests, I discovered. FB, not as such, just an endless stream of ' what am bestest gnu '. Hedge, I'm not buying black bbs for these 2 skirms a year in the snow bud . Not only did the organisation sell grey bio bb's, it was a single shot event as well. Doesn't matter! I have a wallet to fling at my monitor! I'm a-goin airsoft shopping for new toys 'n camo ^^ Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Black BBs are cool all year, though. People can't see them in flight, do don't try to dodge. It's awesome. You need to have well-zeroed sights and tuned hop, though, since *you* can't see them in flight either. Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Yep, I agree with hedge, black ammo am best. No one can see it to avoid it Link to post Share on other sites

Tinkerton Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 This evening, at the last practice of the year, in the annual Christmas competition, I fenced better than I ever have before. I feel immensely proud of scoring quite a few really good touches on a lad who is literally 12 years my junior, and competes at a national level. He beat me in the end, more than once, and I came second from last but I fenced well, and that's what matters. Link to post Share on other sites

DeltaZero Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Apologies for not being too active on here recently been hella busy! Some good things have happened since I last posted mind you! Had an amazing 10 days in Iceland finally celebrating our honeymoon. What an absolutely fantastic place, seriously stunning and so much outward bound activity to get your teeth into. Took my wife ice climbing finally after promising her. Hired the kit and headed out to a glacier in a huge wheeled Land Cruiser complete with remote tyre pressuring. To be honest I didn't need to go climbing I was having too much fun in the jeep still she loved it and I finally got to teach her after promising all these years. (as a result she seems pretty keen to head out to some climbing centres and start climbing with me which will be nice to have a buddy and someone to belay me!) I managed to sneak some dinner and bubbly into my bag too so we watched the sunset on the ice all romantic like. Put me in her good books! Beer was amazing but *fruitcage* expensive (£15/pint). If anyone gets a chance I recommend you try Viking Classic beer, sort of tastes like a Adnams Ghost Ship but with fizz and a bit more kick. We've also had our offer on the mega garage/house accepted so going through the motions right now. Survey didn't come back too badly, a few points to sort but nothing I wasn't mostly aware of. Should be fun! I also took the mini out yesterday for a long blast, had a ball and fell back in love with it after neglecting it for a month or so. Gave it a good clean after too so it's now back to being shiney and glorious! Anyways things should get back to normal so normal service should resume! Its nice to be back!
