Hi all, my name is a mark, I’m 32 from Lancashire UK. Like many of you here, I have always been fascinated with the whole Ghostbusters concept, I had all the toys as a child, but like my missus says, men get old but never grow up lol. I have just started considering building a proton pack of my own, since this Halloween just gone, I decided to build my own version of one. It’s not fantastic, accurate or anything, but it is mine, and I know the work I put into it. I work full time as Loss Prevention Officer, and although it pays ok, I still can’t justify the cost of my own pack, hence the reason for attempting to build one. I think I am going the right way about it, by buying small the parts in small quantities, able to fit my budget. I know I am probably going to struggle to buy a shell at the price they are going, so I will have to build one, which due to my amazingly limited skill of carpentry, metalwork etc, is going to be no mean feat for me. That is where all you guys come in, any help and advice you could all throw my way, would be a god send for me. Thats enough from me, but I would just like to say, what a great site this is, and hopefully I will make a lot of new friends. Thanks for listening guys, and please keep up the good work 
Welcome!
Welcome to the boards, Mark!
