"DR SMITH" - GHOSTBUSTER PROJECT 2008 - PROTON PACK

Here is my Proton Pack build - never again!  Bear in mind this was back in 2008 so any suppliers mentioned may not be trading today.  Head over to https://www.gbfans.com/shop/pack-parts/, they also have a forum where you can get lots of help and advice.  They also sell the Clippard R-701s for the pack and gun.

17th January 08 - My Proton Pack arrived from the States, but received a few knocks in transit :( It was also inspected by Customs and the bag of aluminium knobs for the gun are missing since they opened it :@

No Cyclotron lenses and the bumper needs repainting

This was fixed on very shoddily and naturally, fell off...

This was glued in tattily too.

And this crack appeared probably cos of the mail handlers chucking it around. The whole thing was a piece of crap at this stage.

This was the state of the inside. Yuk.

The top part was very thin and needed strengthening. POS!

11-4-08 - I made these Cyclotron LED holders from 3mm red tinted perspex - the holders will glue to the inner of the pack to cover the Cyclotron holes, and the LEDs cradle in the smaller section.

18-4-08 - Here they are fitted in place with No More Nails (ignore the crappy long bolt!)

The inside of the pack was so uneven it made fitting mounting brackets a nightmare

As you can see it's not gonna sit straight...

....but a bit of Milliput soon solved that.

The gun hatch was barely held on, the bolts went down into nearly nothing so I've had to No More Nails & Milliput the nuts into place then will alter the hatch holes a little to fit.

Who says a girl's kitchen is only for cooking? ;o)

All done with gun mount FINALLY done.

Light up baby! The blue light kit I got on eBay, cannot remember where from. Try gbfans.com.

All the add ons, stickers, bits & bobs and valves etc came from GBfans.com or eBay.
