(...) Good point. A simple 2x4 is the easiest to test and setup at home. Let's go broomstickless! John (21 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) By process of elimination, I guess it was me then who mentioned it :) Grabbing the broomstick, which is like a few feet (maybe even a meter) below the beam, would be quite hard I think. However, if it could be done, it would almost guarantee a (...) (21 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I would guess yes, and definitely yes. I don't think this should stop us, but it is a concern. Plus someone has to build the contest one. So it can't be so complex that we can't even get one built. Derek (21 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I took a short section of 2x4 and drilled holes in it, and stuck in some short pieces of dowel the same OD as the pipe we used for the real thing. 4 rungs I think. It was easy to mock up. For the next one it'll be easy, because everyone just (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hey guys We need a venue for RC racing. It should be: a) indoors b) free If possible: c) in the GTA d) lots of free parking Now that we've all had a good laugh, anyone know of a place, that doesn't need to be public (it's a closed event like live2) (...)

(...) Look back was rtlToronto9, Show Me the Monkey, the one with the ladder like thing in the video? (It was pre-me-n-rtlT, so I don't know) Was the complexity of the "playfield" such that there were less competators? Did most people build a mockup (...)

(...) Well that's their choice if they want to use that beam. I say if they're going to do that, let them build that structure (if they want - I certainly don't think it's necissary for proving a concept). It's just pushing a beam/pulling a beam. (...)

(...) Steve's point is correct. Even with a 2x4 above or below, you still need to build the entire frame to hold the beam 2x4, then build the broomstick/bottom 2x4 too if you want pull it. If this option wasn't in the game, then players only need a (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) See this is what makes it so durn fun. :) (...) That's a really good point. Maybe we should just use another 2x4 at the base, running horizontally, fixed? Just another thought - what if we had a beam not only below, but above, equidistant from (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
