Field Obstacle Hardware Source\Specs?

FIRST General Forum
1

Team 3711 and I assume a few others would like to know where we can get the exact or equivalent field element\obstacle hardware parts:

Team Drawbridge Springs

This is P/N HW-00099 & HW00100 on the field diagram. A search of Andy mark or general google does not come up with anything with the part numbers listed.

Failing that, does anyone know what the spring specs are i.e length, #weight etc. Would be nice to have close to the the same springs to test with.

Sally Port Pnuematic Door Opener

Again no hits on Andy Mark for this but found this link on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Wright-Products-V1020-STANDARD-PNEUMATIC/dp/B0009YDHHK/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1452465748&sr=8-9&keywords=wright+storm+door+closer

This is silver instead of black.

The Door Opener is carried in-store at Home Depot.

HD has a screen door spring that looks to be usable.

Does anyone know what part is “GE-16179” for the the Cheval De Frise. It is the pipe clamp but what size and where can we get them?

7

I would assume that the pipe clamp is the size of the pipe on the Cheval De Frise, which if I recall correctly is listed (1.5’'?). Since this clamp is on the underside of the piece, I don’t think it matters too much what size it is as long as it fits on that pipe and attaches to wood.

The pipe clamps are also available at HD in the plumbing department. In our store they are near the pipe cutting machine

Pro tip: when you’re making the cradle for the pipe, make them in pairs and drill the hole before cutting them in half.

Actually- when I bought the clamps for the 1.25" black pipe from my local lumberjack store, they were entirely too tight for the boards to be able teeter totter. The boards must be able to turn freely on the pipe.

What did you buy? Because we’re having a hard time finding the right piece.
