So April we had 21 days of rain.. May looks to be starting off the same.. it’s very difficult to paint I primed the pack, but had to wait until it stopped raining to spray the supposed to be aluminum parts, rustoluem aluminum I did this around 10pm with the flood lamps on Those aren’t runs your seeing, but liquid latex. Once I’m done painting it black, some light rubbing with your fingers and the latex comes off revealing the silver underneath ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/3/43d242d22a03765ff36038fa9165013a79a348c8.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/c/9/c9c2367f6055b52198452463428f4bcde0f421d0.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/0/1035e99d75996d64f413f6d8eb146bbaafe50e48.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/c/1/c1a4626e6aad2c66c7922903fe26222ae4211643.jpeg) Hard to tell the difference between the primer and the silver in this pics..

I wanted to make the volume control external and up high. So when I’m walking with her I can control it with out having to bend all the way over The [crank knob](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/crank-knob) would be awesome.. but the same the crank box is part of the pack it wasn’t possible.. that’s when I though of this ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/6/0/60ede6fd33133cc74dd020d9f91b769293d87f7b.jpeg) I just drilled a center hole in the resistor and am going to use that as the volume control! ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/a/3/a37dcf6f9c62c9c128df4a11759cc797651e354a.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/7/17c03099a95e68e5cae583bb3e7c1c37bd165e93.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/9/8/98ac9cc488e43f828e847390b2a80c856763568b.jpeg) I’m really happy with how it came out Next I decided to throw Doug’s magnet hook on. I over tightened it and snapped it I don’t think this will hinder its performance. I stuck the wand on multiple times and even stuck the pack to my table a few times to make sure the pieces didn’t come out Maybe I’ll try and find a replacement, but I think I’ll be fine ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/a/c/ac708f6090ae0c3e4c8910d036b2963294baabc0.jpeg) She’s starting to come together.. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/8/b/8b43552cb0ada3e5555b7e3a6aed8f70a44bdb5e.jpeg) I just need the weather… ---

nice! You put your volume pot in almost the same spot where I put mine. It just seems to make sense right there. ---

I used the same magnet hook on the 2nd spirit pack I started a few months ago and it cracked the same as yours on install. I play ghostbusters with my girlfriends 7 year old son most days for 30-45 min without any issues so far (KNOCK ON WOOD!) I love how the rail for the wand has predrilled holes for the screws so you can still take the wand apart after install! ---

Guys I am a little stumped.. So I got a order from GBfans shop, which was super fast btw! I ordered a TON of clipped hose, 1/4red, 1/4 blue, 1/4 green, 1/8 yellow and 1/8 red I bought plenty extra for my own pack. I’m trying to figure out where the 1/8” [red tubing](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/14-tubing-red) goes?! It all looks like it’s 1/4” red tubing on the pack and the [Legris](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/legris) ends on the thrower? I’m also stumped that it looks like it should be 1/4 yellow for the [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm), instead of 1/8”? Am I correct? ---

the only 1/4 tubing on either of my spirit packs is the bit between the clippard elbows on the pack that gets covered with split loom everything else I used 1/8 tubing which is a direct replacement for what comes on the pack. ---

Sorry I should have been more clear. I’m kinda upgrading everything on the spirit to the real pack specs. I was curious where the 1/8” hose goes on the real pack I didnt think the [yellow hose](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/yellow-uniform-hose) on the real pack was 1/8, it looked the same as all the rest which is 1/4? Thanks for your reply though! Much appreciated! ---

Now seeing this the yellow sure does look like 1/8!! ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/c/7/c7f99d50559d1656936d228d7dc8a3478d1418e6.jpeg) Now I need to figure out where the 1/8 red goes.. ---

> [@Tommorris22](#): > > Did you account for the red 1/8th that’s on the thrower tip? Yes, so I’ve been going over the reference photos Can you guys correct me if I’m wrong Thrower banjos get 1/8” red Thrower Clippard barbs gets 1/4” green [Legris](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/legris) straights and elbows gets 1/8” red The Clippard elbows get 1/4” red with wire loam covering it [Injector](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/injectors) tunes both get 1/4 “ red and blue Large resistor to PPD gets 1/4” blue Small resistor gets 1/8” yellow I think that covers it all ---

I thought the loom covered 1/4 tube between the clippard elbows was supposed to be blue but I guess it doesn’t really matter as you cant really see it, I used blue loom covered on my first spirit pack and left the stock green on my second as im making it look more like TVG MkI packs. I swapped out all the stock tubing on my first pack for 1/8 real stuff with real fittings, I was going to use 1/4 green on the thrower but I had a roll of green wire pretty close to 1/8 so I just used that ---

Haven’t done much in the last few days, I did print a cap for the [booster tube](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-tube) Cut out the factory one and installed this 3d print with more sound holes for the speaker Blue brick should be dropped off tonight so I’ll wire that up, see if this booster cap makes a difference ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/0/40157f6cf3326c8faca65122a3dcfeb8cd2028db.jpeg) I also printed a plate for the thrower, to help hold the handle better Don’t have any 3mm cap screws.. so I may just go with painted brass… ---

I really haven’t had much time to work of my nieces pack. I’ve been busy finishing up a few other projects for friends. While I was waiting for paint to dry I did alittle here and there on pack I managed to grab some strapping, I want to run the strapping from inside the thrower to the mother board.. I got 4ft but should have gotten 5 or 6… with 1 foot of it making its way out the thrower (bolted to ghostlabs magnet hook) the strapping is too short.. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/3/5/354b64ceff0e8b41d2a30b6e7171ca629b7af2d5.jpeg) I figured I could throw some tubing on. All the tubing was purchased in the GB fans shop. The resistors are all from heavyprops This brings me down memory lane. In the old days all I had was resin parts, so I would drill and install a rivet, then glue the tubing to the rivet ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/a/4/a4146bc340284cc4f5b04e8ea91a14b01083eade.jpeg) A little e6000, this stuff is amazing ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/4/0/4034232bc7c89e8c50857440043c514eee4585ff.jpeg) I then installed some dry wall patch in the N filter… now thinking this will probably bite me in the end.. I still am waiting on the fletcher ecig setup.. bet the screen mash gets in my way of the install.. fingers crossed!! ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/0/2/02a153b8883beb42a0a9719fb1d29cd82e3f26ac.jpeg) I got some 5mm elbows. They came black so I sprayed them grey, it’s good enough for her. I just filled the end of the elbow with e6000 and shoved the yellow tubing in it, works extremely well Elbows before paint ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/0/5/0561cdd65db51ba1c6c76905f8f403d1d757ed50.jpeg) Then installed ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/3/4/34f02542fd924acc24ff37843a2dbdf5a8d93ff3.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/e/b/ebd3f95c02f78ffd6b81acd8cf9b944e7605149c.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/c/7c674bb222693717597e0bfc041519b7ddedc88c.jpeg) Also did my rivet trick on the thrower tube. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/1/71d58ef143355817518990b2bc73c93137cf635d.jpeg) I got brass Clippard elbows and barbs on the way.
