hello folks, its been a while but i finally finished off my pack, its a semi scratch build in that most of the [motherboard](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/motherboard) and shell are made from kingspan foam, hardboard and plywood, along with some resin cast parts from benofkentprops and also the wand is the hasbro spengler wand… electrics are courtesy of a rechargeable powerbank and a light kit which i can’t remember where i got it from, and some deconstructed halogen bulbs for the reflectors, and the sound is taken from the speaker in the wand and fed through a real cheap ebay amplifier board in the pack and some speakers from an old pioneer portable bluetooth speaker. and its pretty loud and can go louder too..

its mainly worked from stefans plans and it was a big learning curve for me, and there are definite innacuracies, and some details that are a mix of GB1/2 and [afterlife](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/ghostbusters-afterlife) and also the alice frame and straps are repro not original…

the one major thing is its heeeaaavvy!!

plenty more build photos can be found on my insta page [https://www.instagram.com/laveryadam/](https://www.instagram.com/laveryadam/) and also a video of the sound which i couldn’t figure out how to upload here

Looks great, Adam. What reproduction Alice frame did you go with? I couldn’t tell from your insta if it has the elevated cross bar of the LC-2 or what was causing the inward bend. Thank you!

Nice, Way to Build a scratch pack shell That is no small feat 🆒 . Is the semi because of the Spengler wand?
