The green lever is what made the tube ‘pop’ in the 'Make ‘em hard’ scene.

is it just made of steel, with a piece of tubing attached? at first I thought it was a bent screwdriver!

Just a length of wire running from the small silver dial by the heatsink, along the width of the gunbox and bent 90 degrees where it protrudes behind the [trigger box](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/trigger-box). The [green tubing](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/14-tubing-green) is the same tubing used on the thrower.

cool. Thanks!

I’m thinking about maybe tricking that part out when I build my thrower, just for a little personal flair…I might get a little eightball valve cap, and epoxy it on.
