DVC's Ghostbusters 2 Belt - New Photos

The downloadable template is 1:1 as a 4x6 image.

For the nixie shelf, I used a combination of 0.5" foam core and the corner of a DVD case. However, it seems that the screen-used boards didn’t even have shelves - the tubes pretty much sat right on the surface. Of course, the shelf helps add a little more dimension to what is pretty much a fake-looking facsimile of a circuit board.

Ok, thanks!

Great work. This thread is awesome!

Yeah!

And I just finished fobs for my belt. I just couldn’t find the correct “key chains” so I used whatever ACE had.

Your stuff looks great!

Over the past two years, I’ve gotten a lot of questions about my GB2 belt, so I decided to take a few new photos of it. After several modifications and futzing over the exact configuration, I’ve finally found a set-up that I feel is both aesthetically pleasing and distributes the weight of all the gear I feel obligated to carry about my person.

I’d love to add a trap holster to the belt someday, but would have to sacrifice a few fobs in order to fit it on the belt. It’s not like I have the waist to actually WEAR a trap, though… :roll:

I recently acquired some screen-accurate snap hooks in order to make a GB2-style leather fob. These fobs, similar to those used in GB1 and fitted for a smaller belt, did not fit the black belts terribly well and scrunched them up pretty badly. I decided to make mine a bit longer in order to accommodate the wider belt.

As for the GB1 belts that my wife and I use, I dyed some new belts grey and built a new set of key fobs (lower belt).

That is a very nice belt DVC, top quality love the gizmo template, I’m wanting to print mine of but haven’t had much luck in finding a printer or somebody who has one?

I just finished a new belt for a friend of mine.

Hey demon, since I met and bought a belt off u ive been in awe with the craftsmanship. Unfortunately due to my own stupidity I broke the buckle. Can u lead me to where I can purchase another one?

Eh? I’m afraid I don’t quite follow; I’ve never sold any of these belts before…

Just get it printed at any photo print shop as a 4x6. Afterwards, just glue it to a piece of styrene and hit it with some clear spray sealant.

Crap ur right.got ur name mixed with another member lol. Just had a baby and wife and I havent slept much ha. Well.do.u have any suggestions on where to.purchase the front buckle?

Thanks for the advice DVC

Looks fantastic man!!

As for the buckle, Strapworks.com has a pretty close match that I used on the most recent belt I made.

The buckle on my personal belt that I wear is an exact match to the screen-used ones, but I can’t remember the the maker; I picked it up at a surplus store, and there’s no marking on the buckle itself. :expressionless:

I appreciate the heads up! Your belts.look amazing. Going to try and make a gizmo holder like u did. Well done

He buddy sorry for the continued questions what size front buckle did u use?

I believe the front buckle should be for 2 inch webbing.

That’s it. :wink:

When looking for buckles, you want to avoid the ones that have the rounded corners - you want a nice flat, rectangular single-side adjustable quick release buckle.

Thanks again for the info guys!!!

Hi DVC,

Absolutely love your GB2 Gizmo, thank you for making the print out available to the community. I’m currently in the process of making 2 GB2 uniforms and wondered what ID and OD the plastic tubing is that you used for the stunt nixies please? Also is it PVC hose that you used for them?
