Excellent Bunkers For Cheap Money
Ok, I have compiled a list of "Cheap Bunkers."
1. Go to an old Oil Station/Gas Station type place. They are more then happy to give you 55 Gallon Steel Drums which not only provide great cover when 3-4 are stacked, but also look great and do not look cheap at all. Also very sturdy and stand up very well on their own.
2. Probably the most obivous of all, but had to throw it in here. Old tires. Go down to the junkyard, the gas station, your next door neighbor, anybody who may have some. They do stack like legos and are great cover when stacked in groups of 6-7.
3. Sheets. YES I SAID SHEETS. Before you say that sheets suck and do not work let me explain. I walked into our shop, T.C. Paintball, and asked what supplies I might use for building a field behind my house. He suggested I nail up sheets to trees. I found it odd also, but they work so ridiculously good. If it was not for how corny they look, having your mom's old pink sheets, I would have a 100% sheet field. I nailed about 10 sheets up to trees, all corners nailed, about 3 years ago and up until yesterday when I ripped them down to plan for the building, they held up excellent.
4. Wooden privacy fencing. Now you may not be fortunate to come acroos a chance like this, but I currently have 5 Bunkers made of 8x6 Wooden Privacy Fencing with the spikes on top. It works great and the only reason I even have it is because when we moved we no longer needed it so I drug it out there.
5. Plywood. Pretty self explanitory but it can be found at any local lumber place. Just say you want anything they are not using or are going to throw away.
I saved up and have 23 sheets of plywood, 4 doors, 5 pieces of wooden privacy fencing, 10 tires, and 25 Steel drums. After building the "Fort/Building" or whatever you want to call it, I will have 7 Sheets of plywood and all other material left still.
This field shall kick ***. I WILL HAVE PICS. POSTED LIKE CRAZY ALL OVER!
WISH ME LUCK! COMING JUNE 2005! (kinda corny, but hey, well, no, just corny..lol)
