What cons do you typically take this to, anyway? I run it at our local conventions: Gamicon in Iowa City and XenoCon in the Quad Cities (Davenport Iowa, to be specific). You just missed Gamicon this last weekend, and the next XenoCon is October 3-5, 2014. And if I ever manage to make it back to Gen Con, I'm unleashing the Grindhouse upon the gaming world.

Davenport is definitely more doable than Iowa City. Will have to clear out some room in October I think.

Ye gods, I haven't learned any lessons at all. - Since I have full use of a wood shop, the Grindhouse is therefore constructed of wood. - Some gamer friends have recently introduced me to their machine shop, including the laser cutter. - Serious plans have begun for the soon-to-begin construction of the Grindhouse 2.0. - Wood is apparently just not cool enough for this incarnation. We're gonna build it out of clear acrylic sheeting. And programmed LED lighting. - Three words: motorized ring rotation. This is gonna rock.

Three circles, with sprocket shaped outer rings, so the middle circle turns the outer rings of the other two...
You should pipe in disturbed calliope music too.

Bloody fantastic! You have something you can pull out at cons or games days forever.

Soon as it warms up I'm gonna hop on the bike and scoot over 80 to visit C-crew. Wes keeps pestering me to come out anyways.

There has been a sighting in Atlanta of a new, but familiar arena. A good friend moved to Florida last year, and when he walked into his new FLGS they had a familiar-looking arena set up. "You guys have a Grindhouse!" "...What's a Grindhouse?" *shows pictures* "Hey, we can make that!" The owner of the Florida FLGS contacted me and asked if they could use my design, (Hell yeah you can use my design!!) and it was first unleashed last month at JordanCon in Atlanta. I hear it went really well. I'm gonna have to up my game!
