Western WinterBlast 2027 · Manufacturing

Build it here. Watch it fly.

Members build their own product on site and see it fly. Run your own primary site with your crew, or help at one, working to our safety protocols with experienced members around you.

How It Works

Opens with registration.

  • Two ways in:run a primary site, or help at one
  • Everyone applies:each person fills in their own form and signs
  • Reviewed:the Manufacturing Chair approves every application
  • About 10 minutes,and it saves as you go

One process for everyone

How it works

Safety and know-how come first. Read the rules, apply, and let your creations light up the Western WinterBlast 2027 sky.

  1. Be a member, and registerManufacturing is for WPA members registered for Western WinterBlast 2027, with a membership that runs through the last day.
  2. Running a site? Apply firstName your site and tell us what you'll make, your days, your chemicals and storage, and your safety setup.
  3. Invite your helpersFrom your application page, paste your helpers' emails. Each gets a personal link, already linked to your site, and you see where everyone is.
  4. Helping? Join your siteUse your primary's invite, or apply and choose their site from the list; they confirm you're with them.
  5. Everyone signs, then it's reviewedEach person reads and signs the manufacturing policies. The Manufacturing Chair approves by email, or tells you what to change.

Choose your role

Primary site or helper?

Everyone who manufactures has their own approved application, whichever role they take.

  • Primary site

    You're responsible for a site: its setup, chemicals, storage and fire extinguisher, and your crew. You invite your helpers and see each one's progress.

  • Helper

    You work at someone else's site. You still complete your own application and sign the policies; your primary confirms you're on their team.

  • The J-Line

    A shared manufacturing line run by the WPA, where you build alongside others without a site of your own. Choose it on the form.
