Im going to be building a setup for this summer and I was just wondering how much all of your guy's setups cost and how long it took you to build. For the cost how much did the Drop-in and the Rail cost you? Thanks a bunch

20 bucks but most of that was for the turf, and i may be upgrading my drop in from crap-your-pants-sketchy to just plain sketchy, so the price'll probably go up

I'd say about thirty for each box, i have two 12' box's (i got the top sheet for free so that will raise the price tremendously) then about thirty more to make 2 10' PVC rails w/ supports. As for my drop in, which is a stand up tower cemented into the ground, at least $100.

Drop in = $0

Extra nails to build summer setup = $4

Rails = $11

Hitting my backyard setup all year long for $15 because i have a ton of extra wood at my house = Priceless

I'm actually going to get some snow fence and turf today so thats gonna be like $40 but until then...$15

I paid zero dollars. All of the wood and stuff was either given to me by a neighbor or found around my house.

A guy my dad works with had a bunch of extra snow fence lying around so he gave it to us.

I found some really old astro turf in my barn, so that was obviously free.

A couple of friends and I just drove around town looking for PVC and or anything else that could be used as rails and we ended up find a shit ton, so that was dope.

I guess the only thing that I will have to buy is some soap and wax for the metal rails.
