Well today my shell turned up and so did my Jupiter electronocs light kits.

As my shell did not turn up till about 4.00 today i diid not have time to do a lot but this is what i have done so far.

1: Fit the [booster tube](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-tube) to my shell and screw it in place.

2: Drilled the holes in the [N-Filter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/n-filter), And then added four screws to hold it to the shell.

3: Inserted a big long screw to the top of both [injectors](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/injectors).

4: Then made a big hole in the bottom of the injectors to house the red and blue hose and the corrugated pipe.

5: cleaned up a few resin parts

Tomorrow will try and find a item to use insted of the hollow tube that comes with sevv`s shell. And fit a few more items to the shell.

Still unsure on how i will fix my [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm) to my pack yet.

Here is a photo of both injectors ane as no corrugated pipe fitted to it yet

And here is my pack with the booster and n-filter fitted.

I had a resin [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm) off nick which is hollow so has a hole at the bottom. What I did was get an piece of mdf about 25mm thick and cut it to the size of the hole at the bottom of the ion arm. I then drilled 4 holes one in each side of the ion arm. Countersink the holes ( fairly deep). I then glued the wood inside the ion arm and screwed it as well so it’s nice and strong creating a bottom face for the ion arm. I then filled the holes in and cleaned the filler up so the heads of the screws could not be seen. I then drilled 2 holes through my shell and screwed the ion arm to the shell from inside the shell. The metal part of the ion arm at the top was screwed in place. I drilled and tapped the holes and used the m4 bolts that were supplied with the ion arm. I glued the resistors in place onto the ion arm but drilled some holes were the screws are and glued the screws in place. I think I have pics in my pack build thread of the wood in the ion arm. Also to help out with the weld I got a tube of poly fillet from homebase or b and g. The type that you use the gun to squeeze the fillet out. I then went up the sides squeezing a small amount out to create the weld. Takes about 24 hours to go off fully maybe a little longer with the cold weather.

Looks pretty sweet!

Just some friendly critiquing here, but I think your [Booster Tube](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-tube) might be a tad off center. If you were facing the pack, it looks like its a little too far to the right. I could be wrong though.

Well here here is my almost complete pack. I have to fit a red and blue perspex lense as the glue went everywhere. .

Fitted the light kit to the pack and made holders for the leds, i thought it was a tad bright so added some red felt i think now it looks great. Even made a alloy plate to hold the board in place.

The part that took me a long time was the Spectra cable. it just looked ■■■■ so i had a great idea. cut a small length of garden hose and wraped the cable round it. the now fits nice and snug in the clamp on the booster and into the hole in the pack.

here are a few photos of the pack now.
