Scrappy is sporting his formal monocle in this photo.

The Exposition opens its doors in just 2 days! Scrappington Hauley has prettied himself up for the occasion. Are you ready?

We still need donations to support this event. Please spread the word because if we do not meet our goal by Friday night, all donations will be returned. Our Kickstarter page is here.

Casters make gear transport much easier

We have several wood crates that we use for the safe transport of our weapons and other gear. When I first built them, I neglected to consider how much effort would be involved in getting them from the trailer into hotels or convention centers and other venues. That lesson was one that only took a short while to sink in. Not soon after, I began retro-fitting all of the cases with casters to make moving them less of a burden.

Builder’s note: Harbor Freight runs regular deals on a “mover’s dolly” that has four 3.5″ swivel casters, usually for around $8 (eight bucks). You can’t buy four individual casters for that much. It’s a great deal.

Here are a few pics from the installation of those casters on to the base of the power pack transport case:

Equipment transport crates

We’ve constructed two crates to transport some of our equipment to conventions and appearances. We’re going to need a few more, but these two are a start. The long one holds Rusty Koontz and Brown Bess, and the taller one holds the Sonic Blunderbuss, both Plasma Pistols, and Torque’s new (as yet un-named) device. Plus there’s room inside for lots of smaller bits and tools, accessories, etc.
