Is there any interest in this? If so, I will get some pictures made and try to post diagrams similar to the Dollar Store [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) located here: [My Dollar Store Proton Pack! - Repaint Page 3! - Proton Packs - GBFans.com](http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1588) and the Dollar Store/Walgreens [Slime Blower](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/slime-blower) located here: [My Dollar Store / Walgreens Slime Blower! - Slime Blowers - GBFans.com](http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3314) Brady ---

> [@Ray Stanz GB](#): > > hell yeah, you always need an alternative to the expensive stuff. I agree! Plus I think it’s more fun to build things yourself than to buy a kit. Here are the parts Im starting with. Aside from the striped tape, a few Radio Shack knobs and the spray paint; everything else is from the local dollar shops. Wish me luck! I hope to have this done by the weekend to do some filming. I also have Proton Grenades to build, but I will save those for another thread 😛 The parts: ![image](http://home.teleport.com/~bgage2/trapparts.jpg) -Brady ---

And here is what I’ve made so far in under an hour while Dancing With The Stars was on. I didnt want to watch it, so what else was I to do? Keep in mind this is unpainted, missing the handle, the doors and the side panels with the knobs and such. ![image](http://home.teleport.com/~bgage2/trapparts2.jpg) -Brady ---

It looks a little wide, but im still excited to see the finished product. If it looks as good as your [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) then i will be very impressed. ---

True the proportions will not be perfect and it’s a little girthy, but my other items have the same issues and I think they still look ok 🙂 -Brady ---

Definetly looking forward to seeing the innovations here and cheap alternatives! Hopefully people will continue to see this thread and your [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) as Halloween ever so slowly creeps up on us. :boogieman: Looking good! It seems some people just show up sometimes unwilling to ever do anything themselves unless it involves buying a finished product. Where’s the fun in that? 😊 ---

Im hoping to get the black painted tonight and the handle on at least. Possible the side panels as well, depending on how fast the paint dries. -Brady ---

> [@bradboss12](#): > > You’ll have your place in GB Fans history! Keep us posted! I think it’s starting to look pretty good. Here it is after a few coats of a mix between flat and semi-gloss blacks. I think I can have it finished tomorrow night. It would just be nice if the weather would warm up so the paint could dry as fast as it’s supposed to.

All I have to do is add the doors and the wheels, and the trap is done! I think (at least I hope) you guys will be quite surprised at the outcome. Pics this weekend, if not by late tonight. ---

ok, the trap is great!!! The protons grenades are cool, but I would clean up the goo around the edges to make them look “clean” The trap turned out really well considering that it was dollar store stuff! ---

Looks great, very innovative and gets the job done. Job well done! Any plans for a pedal?! 😃 :crunch: No offense to the guy but better than one guy on here put yellow tape in a few stripes on an old black computer mouse… :sigh: looking at the picture of him was a bit depressing as he went out for halloween with his girlfriend, as a GB with a less than accurate outfit only to have I guess 3 or 4 guys with the full shebang with lights and all and his gf was like “sorry” 😃 [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/my-dollar-store-ghost-trap-amp-proton-grenades-parts-list-p2/16047.md?page=2)
