    Now this is just a thought getting off the ground...

    So don't get excited just yet.

    But the guys over at docs machine shop guild forum (includeing me) have cooked up the idea of maybe an Airsmith build of like the biker build offs they have on discovery channel.

    They would start with a merlin extrusion raw body and let them go at it.

    What ever strikes there fancy can be made.

    A time line of course would be set.

    Of course they would have to have the same budget so that people arn't wowed by the amount of anodizing or little gizmos are put into it.


    The thread just started over at www.docsmachine.com go to the guild forum. We'd love to here input or just post over here and i'll relay it back to them.

    I think this is actually gonna happen but it'll be in the works for probably longer than it'll take to film.

    Then when its all done and times up the works of art would be show cased at a large event such as IAO or something along those lines

    But i do belive this is a danceing banana occasion

    Thanks,
    Fathom

          We've talked about doing something similar for years. But it's never happened yet.

          If it does. I'm in.

            I personally think it could work.. but do something really intense... Like this..

            Every guy gets a gun from a sponsor.. what ever for all I care it can be a Rebel blow back , The trick it out as much as they can withen a budget be it what ever and at the end of the contest we all get together at an event or on the web and put it to poll whos is the best..


            Personally , starting with something is better than starting from scratch it will also be less head aches and cost expenditure..

            Manike I know NPS was blowing rebels out stupid cheap a while ago.. it could be a hilarious start

            Im 100% for it but Im the Billy Lane or Indian Larry of the group.. almost all of my customs have something on it made from something that isnt paintball related.. My Pirate Nelson Pistol has alot of brass on it that I got from a 1940's era hydralic pump

            And another reason to go with the same gun.. you know some wise guy is going to get his hands on an Angel lcd for 200 bucks with a blown board and noid and rework that into the gun.. and the Agg kiddies will enjoy that more than a cludged togeather and polished merlin extrusion pnuematic assisted pump

                Ethan left. He wants to get out of pb and try something else. I'll miss shootin' the breeze with him when I go into the pro shop. Craig owns the shop now. I don't think Ethan would be the greatest in that contest anyway. I had to help him take the valve out of a tippmann 98c once lol.

                Sweet idea. This is something I've daydreamed about several times.

                  wow, awesome idea! id watch it. make sure you market it, cause id buy it (dont pull an AGD ) and im sure a lot of other paintballers and even non-paintballers would too. id love to see doc vs simon .

                  :edit:
                  oh yeah and as much as id like to be able to vote, i dont think that it should be a public voting system. maybe we should just have creditable people in the paintball industry like airsmiths or manufacturers as judges. hey, maybe we could get tom to be a judge

                    We could start from Lightenings or Superbolts...

                    I could probably get the guns for the real contestants...

                          it would be better than garage takeover on the discovery channel. I'd watch it
