New Home Field
Today marked the debut of the new home field for the PAC 10 Clemson Tigers and the LAEFL NY Jets.
Under construction for the last few months as time permitted, today it was finally finished. Runs on six Radio Shack rotary motors, drawing juice from a 10 amp variable speed power supply. She really runs smooth, boosting the fastest figures from end to end in seconds and giving mad push to the strongest figures in the trenches. Inspired by the Field of Dreams Monster Board I have made by Bill Porche. Thank you Billy for the advice you have given me and for letting me pick your brain the times we hung out at your shop over the last couple of years. Cover by Weirdwolf, looks good Lynn, I love it, thanks! Frame and motors by Shabby A BIG SHOUT OUT to Rick "Pirate Rick" Garrison too for the building tips and for helping me with the final wiring out of the Pirates Den! Thank you All Electronics... we needed an ON - ON toggle!!!!!!!

That looks cool Shabby! Love the look on the wood. The whole thing looks so classic.
Shabby had me working hard on this one to give it that worn look. Here are some of the proofs of the art.

Looks great!
six motors?? What size is the board? I made a 24 X 48 sheet metal board and It runs smoother with 1 motor rather than 2. Do you have 2 in each end zone and 2 at mid field? I'd like to have more speed but when I use two motors it gets a little jumpy. Also when I connect both it seems they run at a slower RPM...got any advice for a newbie?

If your motors arent encased, could you shoot me a pic of one? I am using a RC heli plastic gear that has pre drilled holes around the perimeter with a very small screw (size #2) in one of the holes.

That's the basic gear and counter-weight set up I am using.
