Yes the dog would probably lay a few around so it can escape better next time.

Barbed wire. ... but no that wire wrapped around wire that some companies try to pass of as barbed wire.

Heh.

Watch towers!!!

Moats with alligators. Mines. Concertina wire. Electric fencing. Automated sentry guns.

1:1 scale Ageis Defence Line.... That should work

LOL, I'm going to show you fencing both in 1:1 AND 28mm

I don't think the 28 mm fencing is going to stop the dog Dave hobby madness has finely set in get the rivet gun

best solution to keep beany at home... and cuddle her...





or shoot all those small squirrels and cats

I used all of my extra 1/4" chicken wire patching holes in the 1:1 fence! I'm not using my wireform stuff out there though
She is a sighthound, that means she sees every bird, squirrel, and especially rabbits from a long way away
We took a really long walk today, the first nice day of the year, and that seemed to calm her curiosity about the other yards.

ohoh...you will be on your toes for quite some time then^^...

will you go to school with her? might be useful...

beside... man... i am watching CNN atm... boston sure hit the midden... i hope this deathtoll doesn´t get higher any more...

terrorists are just weak freaks...i hope their so called promised land is filled with boobytraps... they deserve a taste of their own medicine!

The joke is on them when there is only dirt and blackness and their hateful hearts. Yeah I'm listening to the Boston emergency services radio online thanks to Galorn for the link.

Have to agree, she might be small, but I don't think she's 28mm scale. Can you give us a scale shot....perhaps on a 25mm base, preferably round.

well they probably have tow to three years... end up hidden in a whole somehwhere on the other side of the planet...and then some marines put a bullet in their sorry excuses for a skull... just like they did with all the other chaps they caught in the last couple of years...and rightly so... courts shouldn´t be sullied with sorting stuff like that out...

The courts are for the closure of the families. Wher I feel a bullet solves a lot, some of the families need that time. Especially because there's not enough of them for each victim to have a turn pulling the trigger.

Seeing as how it's being discussed here, I just want to say how sad and sorry I am for the States after the Boston bombs, I really hate waking up and seeing that dominate the news with footage and images of normal everyday people trying to enjoy their day and do something fun when financially the globe is getting harder to survive on, and then these small minded hate mongers feel it's their right to dominate a populations minds with fear and self righteousness by killing and maiming those they feel aren't holy enough to be following their own god and belief systems.

my heart goes out to all affected!

and to lighten the mood a bit, you have some good ideas to stop rivet from bounding away from you :-) I'm guessing your yard is fully fenced? you can get the electronic boundary collars (I don't really like them but they do seem to work) or you can just teach her 'Calm' and then she can chill with her dad in the his Nerd kennel? :-) treats are the key mate, just not too many...... then again if she has too many and get a bit fat!..... she won't fit through the fence! omg I am brilliant eh!

Dave check this out http://fullscalefalcon.com/

Electric collars work good on the larger breeds, but the smaller ones tend to be smarter in my experience. I had a friend who's tiny dog would lay down near the border of the fence and creep up to it till the warning buzzer would go. She'd sit there until the battery in the collar died and then go meet her boyfriend down the street.

I know, I'm so sick of killing in God's name, if there is a God, master of creation and life and all that, he/she certainly wouldn't condone this.
Ladygeek and I have been discussing the electric fencing options, yes the back yard is surrounded by fence and bushes, but on the bush side, it's a small embedded fence, which needs to be upgraded in parts.

(waaay too) Early this morning we had heavy thunderstorms, and we found out the thunder scares her, but once she was into our bed and finished kissing us frantically, she calmed down Oh the joys of puppy raising
@LDD, that's an insane project!!
I immediately shared the link with a guy I know who had built several 1:1 R/C R-D2s

Thanks for the plug Dave.

Have you seen the kickstarter for secret weapons tablescapes? They just previewed the urban streets boards. Between that and the scrapyard bases I think they just made a modular necromunda table. That and the small set is currently a 4x4 table.

I don't know how your house is laid out, but my mother in law had run the electric dog fence around the yard and then also throughout the basement rafters. It kept the dogs from getting on the carpeted areas of the house. Might be worth thinking about if you could run the wire around the yard and protect the manufactorum as well. Keep the important things safe....yes I meant the dog too.

i dunno... i feel that the electric fence idea is like heading into the wrong direction... sounds cruel to me...

and... gotta ask you insiders on this... in our media they talk about only two bombs... what happened to the stuff that happened at the airport?

and took the hint about the link...subbed^^

Yeah, I'm not sure about the shock collar, it does seem cruel to me too. A regular fence will work just fine

We only have one room of carpet, and our puppy is welcome to use it - she is part of the family after all

Airport Vik?

i´ve heard that there was a big fire/explosion on the boston JFK airport yesterday too...or did i get things wrong here?

and yeah... refular fences should suffice... you wouldn´t want to see that lil muzzle in agony...

and...she can use the carpet? that induces a certain kind of image in me...

Oh no, JFK Airport is in NYC. It was the JFK Presidential Library (East from the Marathon site, near Logan Intl. Airport) that had a fire. Ex-Presidents always get a Presidential Library/Museum in their hometown (or thereabouts) apparently it was unrelated.
I think Google Maps SimCity view is awesome, so I had to share

apparently it was unrelated.

apparently...yeah... we´ll wait how tis all runs out...

whenever i see bird views of american cities it always marvels me how checkboard like they are... (i know why...but it is still surprising...)

I believe it was just coincidental from what I read yesterday. Some sort of electrical fire.

The collars do t hurt, tried the on myself before our dogs. It gives a slight buzz and low pulse letting them know they're getting close to a bad spot. If they continue the. Then They get the shock.

My mother in law had dogs that had bad potty problems, it was easy to clean off the other floors, but was ruining her carpet. I thought it might be a good way to keep her from eating some of the small gaming stuff.

oh no, she's been really good about only playing with her toys. She's pottying outside, not in the house, they are easiest to train when you teach them the expectations from the first day home .... Well I caught her drinking Ladygeek's leftover coffee from this morning. Ladygeek won't leave her cup within snout range anymore


Automatically Appended Next Post:
@Vik- Boston's streets were laid out for horses and Buggies a LONG time ago, it's one of the worst traffic cities in the whole country!

really? i thought NYC would be that city...or roma?...or mexico city?

oh and coffey for dogs... ouch... i bet you had her running around even more then^^...i think what your lil beany will teach you is a new perspective... (even if you had pets before...)

OMG, she was unbearable yesterday! NO MORE COFFEE for her!
She had a much better day today though, so did I, I got the soft top on the jeep, and finished the 1:1 puppy fence


It's not ZOmbie proof, but it should give her plenty of room for her much-needed excersize
@Vik- remember, Chicago burned, and Manhattan has been torn down and Biggerized over and over again, a lot o those buildings in Boston are Historical sites now. Mexico City is in..well Mexico
