So I just received the plans for the construction of this field yesterday. As opposed to shipping a loaner field for $5,000 the $1,000 for ownership sounds like a no-brainer. There is the fun of storing the field when not in use but that is another story.

How does this rectangular field play with over-drive and balls in the corners? I've got the lane divider and over-passes from the local kick-off which is the black-pipe covered in PVC.

Any thoughts on how to keep the trackballs in play along the sides especially with catapult robots tossing them around.

I ask because I am putting together a demonstration scrimmage for mid-October here in San Antonio on the floor of the AT&T center. It is a three hour education rally with an astronaut and the usual local pop culture celebs. I want to get high tech students creating some of the excitement with robots. We'll probably only get 20 - 30 minutes on the schedule.
