Just finished my (hopefully) last big project, my six-sided scale ring. Took a while but I think it turned out pretty well, the only issue I'm noticing is I made the mat a little high off the ground which is easy enough to fix. I made it an 18" ring to try something different, with the Jakks figs it does seem a little small but that's how it is with bigger guys in a smaller ring compared to a 20 foot ring and im pretty sure TNA used an 18 footer. The only thing it needs is aprons and pads, I'm working on some Japanese-style turnbuckle pads and using some old black t-shirts for the aprons. Heres a shot of underneath the ring, im kind of proud of this part the chains will actually tighten up after the ropes are put on and keep the ring from caving in. I bought material for a cage but I'm considering making a 20" ring next so I may hold off on that, I'm sure 20" will be in better scale with my collection but i'm glad I managed to finally get this done. If I do I may consider selling this one, it may look a little better with Mattel figures.

Like the asylum years, pre-hogan era. I bet it would look 'sick' with say HOF sting and E56 aj just because they were in tna. I know the attire would be a bit off but still, I think it would be really cool.

plus thats how most rings are assembled, comealongs and whatnot, one of the most annoying parts of setting up a ring lol

I always wanted a scale TNA ring when i was younger, as cool as this one looks, i think the 20" one would suit Jakks a bit better.
