I just registered as bauer00 and I have always been a fan of Ghostbusters, since I was young and saw the first movie. I didn’t think anything other than when I was young, about how cool it would have been to have a [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) prop and play with it. So, 2 years ago I attended my first con, called Archon, which is teh best con here in the Midwest. It is entirely fan-run and while there I met a new friend from the St. Louis area, who is a super fan. He has been working with me on a build of a GB1 pack in the style of Venkman’s pack.

I hope to get this done within the next 3-4 months. BYT, I have no idea what I am doing.

Welcome aboard, bauer! 🙂

I’m sure if there’s anything you’re not entirely sure how to proceed with, there’ll be folks here who’ll be happy to steer you in the right direction. 🙂
