Hi all, it’s been a long time since I joined this forum but I never really commented or introduced myself!

My names Mark, 34 from Northen England. I’m a big ghostbusters fan. I joined this forum back in 2010!

So my first attempt was kinda weak. I’d bought a [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) from ebay and made a good first try at putting together a full outfit! The final product in that case was.. ok, but always knew I wanted to build my own! And have it exactly as I would prefer.

So these last 2 years I’ve painstakingly sourcing parts and putting together my pack and kit! These forums have been a fountain of knowledge for me and helped when i lost my cool with the pack on several occasions. But as with all great pieces of art, it’s important to know when to stop tinkering… I think I’m almost there now. I hope to get some progress photos up soon.

Thank you all for your collective knowledge and letting me into the hobby! 😋
