 Hiya Everyone. I know this is the New Player Forum and all, but Im a 2˝ year player. Thing is, my and my friends have a field up near woods..so we play woods / field ball. Its sweet. All we have are palletes (I think thats how you spell it) ...a few here and there. Any good ideas on what we can use for bunkers?

You can cut some logs and use those.  We use old broken down peices of machinery.  We also use wagons and stuff like that.  There's a huge pile of old dog houses and some metal scraps where we usually play.  Just use your imagination.

Agreed, but it doesn't have to be big.  You could use some small bunkers if you wanted.  It will make the game more exciting, and will show your skill if you don't get hit when behind one.

Since you play field ball, there are probably bales of something or other readily available to use as bunkers. I use old furniture, logs, and pallets.

I build bunkers and sell them to my friends but anyways they're not hard to build, I think there's a guide if you google it.

I know it sounds weird but find some doors. If u ever see an old door in the garbage grab it ive learned from experiance they are very versatile.

You can go to some local stores and find out what they do with their old wood palates. Those are perfect.

Search in here for a post. Try searching bunkers. I read about a year ago from Psycho about building bunkers.

You can gt materials from a junkyard or garage sale if you cant find anything. You could also put foxholes in

bathtubs work great, i personally like getting covers of washers, the door on it can come in handy. My local shop went to some place that makes platic tubes (like you would use to go under your driveway for water to drain through) and bolted them together. Other items that work well are the tops of semi's, old stack of tires, old truck beds, old tables, fridges, or you can just go out and buy a big roll of plastic and wrap it around 2 trees. Just about any funiture will work; beds, couches, tables, chairs, dressers, old t.v.'s (i would take the screen out first)

All we really did was get some shovels and dug a few rectangular holes about 3ft deep and 6ft across. Then we put a mound of dirt in front of it to give us a lil cover.

If I can find the body of a car I could probably get it towed onto the field with my friends dads help. I could knock out the windows for safety.

Speaking of pallets I beleive  84 Lumber has pallets that they toss out. Also your local grocer. They are usually free. If not...kick the owner  («« Just Kidding there folks.) Sometimes ®adioShack has some pallets..very rarely though.
