Hold on hold on....stop wetting and soiling yourselves. I don't want a range rule that both Goggles and Rubber Diapers must be worn. So you boys hold it. That aside fantastic work everybody who was involved. I do believe now that the Hilltop will be pretty much un-breachable. A true airsoft Citadel.

The hilltop fortress is mostly finished. Got a lot of work planned around the outside and at the junction of the roads just down from the top that will be started soon. Got more done on what was gonna be crack house #1 but now is slated to be DEA headquarters and holding area. Going to add some chain link fence wire to the windows in place of bars and see if I've got enough to use as at least part of the inside wall of the holding area. Figured a way to use 2 or more pallets and some of the plastic sheeting to make chairs and couches that are reasonably water proof. Made one sample and Mongo quickly claimed it. Pix are up on the Weaver Combat Ranch site at combatranch.technoprimitive.org/wp/?p=62 for those interested. We still need any and all materials that you may have laying around! We are starting to run out of pallets (already!) so if you have or know where to get more please bring them out. Metal roofing of any kind is also a much needed item. The more we get, the more buildings we can roof to keep the heat off and rain out. Getting a little closer every day. Wolfie

Mongo, Mehel, Mary Ann, Cathy, Bill, Psycho, and yours truly, Plumb Wolfie, all lent one or both hands at one time or another today. No pix as we worked till dark.
Well, the hilltop fortress is now much more than it was. Added another 3 feet or so on top of the walls with window/gun port areas every 4 feet. Got a few more top pieces to put on and some reinforcement needed at the doors but it's fightable right now.
Got the side walls covered on the DEA station and one row across the remaining unfinished end. Still got some uprights on the end and 2 more plastic panels to be fully enclosed but should be done with trim and all on the outside by tomorrow evening. Got one door to clad in plastic and install. Guess we will build the other one from scratch unless someone donates one in time. Found some chain link fencing today and know I have more somewhere so will see how much of the detainment cage can be built tomorrow too.
We have had some 10 foot building trusses donated (Thanks, Bill) and are planning on using them for the roof of the briefing building which will be located close to where the power panel at base camp is now located.
Materials of any and all kinds needed. You deliver or pick up can be scheduled.

Today was Mongo, Psycho, Cathy, and yours truly. Again no pix but will try to get some this weekend.
Didn't finish with anything but made a lot of progress. Mongo, Cathy and Psycho got a lot of the portable barriers built. These will be able to form barricades, building walls, road barriers and any number of things. Lots is planned with the use of these and some modifications of these.
We got the front door covered on both sides (after the glass was removed) with plastic. Hung it with tire hinges and made a tire and plastic "latch" that is kickable (semi gently please). Also got the cell window bars hinged. Haven't done the "lock" yet but will be easy to defeat so access can be gained and/or escape possible.
I got a batch of mobile home type windows that has a lot of broken glass in them. Gonna remove all the glass and put just the frames up as windows to shoot through. Got some old storm doors that will get the glass removed and used too.
We still need building stuff. Metal roofing with holes will let in the rain but will help keep everyone cooler in the coming summer sun. Any and all types wanted. Wolfie

Daily report of doin's at the Combat Ranch
Todays workers were Mongo, Boat, Cathy, Laura (who is an excellent chair tester ;D ) and your's truly.
Got some more details worked out and finished on the Hilltop Fortress/Crack House. The windows/gun ports now have flexible shields. Top of all the side walls have been braced. Not pretty but stiffens it all up quite a bit.
The DEA office/lockup now has hinged (tire sidewall rubber is wonderful stuff) steel grills on both outside windows. To open one a lockpick (phillips head screwdriver) will be needed Lack 2 or 3 boards and a few pieces of plastic having the cell wall, window and door finished. Inside cell window has a nonremovable steel grill. End wall needs 2 pieces of plastic, 3 uprights, and a 12 foot header to be done. Also need to build a back door. Hope to have it done tomorrow or monday at the latest.
We need more screws. So far everything has gone together with assorted sheet rock screws for ease of both assembly and later disassembly. As you might guess this is using up a LOT of screws. We can use any and all donations of any size of rock screws. We wiil be glad to arrange a pickup time for any materials you cannot deliver to the ranch.
Thanks to everyone that has already donated time and/or materials! You are the ones that are making this possible!
