hello friends whilst i was in america i made a raw arena for my cousin who is really into wrestling atm, for some reason i didnt take any photos though. this lead me to make one for myself, the whole thing is made from foamboard and mitb scaffolding. i made the cage, ringskirts and floormats and painted the steps. the ropes are some bungee cord from a craft shop and the posts are jsut wrapped in duct tape. it isnt done yet i still need to get some lights, barricades and a crowd anyway here are the pics xxx and my painted/leathered belts Update! Made barricades out of leftover wood lying around the house, painted black. Also added spotlights to ramp and stage, ones on stage are from some weird post thing i had laying around and the ones on the ramp are just dowel painted silver! I also had a go at casting belts, I've made the WHC and ECW title, both are pretty eh but if I practice some more hopefully they get better, unfortunately I havent taken any photos but I shall update soon! hope you enjoy guys, constructive criticism is very welcome and if anybody would like any more pics or anything just ask xx

If you don't mind me asking, how did you attach the cage posts together? I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to attach those wooden dowels together! Great job on you setup!

Great job on you setup! the actual frame of the cage is hot glued together and the mesh is ziptied onto the poles, i ziptied all 4 of the sides together at the top and then just around the post, ist pretty annoying to have to cut the ties every time you take it off but theyre like 200 for $1 so 4 each time isnt too bad i suppose

For holding the cage up, you could just use twist ties to hold all four sides if the cage together too. They are easy to put on and remove. Does the hot glue hold the frame together well?

Does the hit glue hold the frame together well? thank you! yeah i had twist ties originally but they didnt hold up as well and there was 1 side that kept sliding down so i just used zipties. yes the hot glue does the job perfectly, once its glued and the cage is tied to the frame its pretty sturdy

Very impressive, keep up the good work. Love how everything has turned out, wish I had the space to display my figures and RSR that way, but hopefully someday. But I give you credit for a job well done!!

Awesome, a recommendation, expand the base of the stage so it looks perfect.

Yeah, thats exactly what I think whenever I look at it, but I didnt have any plans whilst making it and i started with the stage so had no idea how big it was gonna be. not sure how im gonna change it now because its all stuck together but hopefully!
