How do you plan on attaching the [n-filter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/n-filter)? ---

Nick, look forward to this. Love you build threads. Quick question though, I notice that you appear to have a fake weld on the [booster tube](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-tube) which looks like it attachs to the [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm). Is this correct? And should I be adding it to mine?? ๐Ÿ™‚ ---

Thanks for the kind words fellas! ๐Ÿ™‚ Ill be attaching the [N-filter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/n-filter) via a hidden small L-bracket. The weld between the tube and arm was present on all hero and semi-hero packs (although the semi hero weld was cast in and not a real weld). ---

I cut off my [n-filter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/n-filter) a couple of weeks ago and was thinking of ways to attach a metal one. Iโ€™ll be curious to see how you go about attaching it and how well it works out for you. Good luck! ---

Look at you! Looks like another great pack. The fact you have a bigi shell as a base is a big plus. [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/my-gb1-pack-build-bigi-shell/27546.md?page=2)
