Here we go again , Update , 03.09.10 DONE !!!!

Pets the puppy so cute :slight_smile:

Looks like you may need to use the new oscillating spindle sander to get the bumper looking really good :wink:

If that is the case… you will be the first person I call.

nice pack and trap so far!

awwwwwwww cute puppy

=^_^=

Some serious respect for your skills. It’s rare that I see a scratch built bumper and even rarer that I see one that turned out so GOOD.

i just want to make sure you’re making your own gun to go along with this too right? im doing my best to keep an eye on your updates because im attacking my next pack this way. the trigger box on the gun has me a little fuddled.

For the thrower, I’m using an Irri gun kit body with trigger box and slowblow box.

The handles are from Dimensional Fabrications, both back and front.

The reason for using a kit such as instead of building from scratch, like my previous thrower is simply , time, and functionality.

Since this project is on a dead line, In order to have a rotating handle and etc would take me longer to build, also my front handle has the ears welded on they ain’t going anywhere ! as this pack will be the show pack for palmcoast busters events it has ti be strong, plus it looks cooler ; )

Heres some blurry nighttime WIP pics, I’ll put up more this weekend as I have all weekend to finish this puppy, If all goes as planned this project might be done by the end of the weekend, well minus the ribbon cable… I’m working on that lol

booo. hiss.

lol yeah yeah yeah, I hear ya,

if you have any questions about thrower construction that might help you out, let me know, I hated building that trigger box as well, don’t sweat it. In my opinion, I think the thrower is harder than the pack, simply due to its size, I have big hands.

Have you researched any possible “negative side effects” from having a speaker pointed directly at your intestines?

…uh…<<… >>…no ?

                           ^         ^

You think I should be worried about operating an unliscensed nuclear accelerator so close to my innards ?

I thought we tested that years ago… ?

I mean, the monkeys lived didn’t they ?

I lol’d. Damn fine pack, Spider. Have you ever read “Anansi Boys”? Your name is no longer Mr. Spider, its just Spider. K?

but " Mr. " makes it sound so sophisticated : (

( btw, the man behind that mask is… me lol )

Lol, lies! But.. damn, I’ll have to give you that. You’re the man in the tux…

actually i shopped the tux into that pic, here is the real photo…

EVERYONE ! Prepare to be shocked, Women and children , and people with weak constitutions should look away !

This photo was taken a LOOOOOONG time ago like back in high school long. the convention was Jacon ( anime convention ) ( Dont’t judge ! I didnt know any better at the time ! )

Um… Nick…wow…

Listen, next weekend you and I need to have a long conversation about what to wear and what not to wear… cause.. um…

:wink:

boo. hiss.

Here’s some more WIP from today…

Here’s a shot of the cyclo before and after paint using CF metal cyclo rings…

Still WIP bumper

if that speaker does what I think it will, we’re gonna call this the diarrhea pack. :lol:

well, at least I wont have problems staying regular

I’ve always figured a pack would make you sterile and give you cancer eventually.

Pack looks great, especially the texture.
