Nice work man.

The only thing I noticed is a socket is needed for the Large Flat Green lens.

In my opinion; The “Lower Batter Box” appears to be some sort of Loaf Pan… but what kind? and would modification (chopping it down to size) explain why its painted.

Also,

Here’s what info I’ve collect on the Parker Fittings:

Brass Fittings:

Quanity-5 or 6\*\* of BST-6 , Female quick connect, female threads. Three on the pack. Two or One on gun.\*\*

Quanity-1 or 0\*\* of BST-6M ,Female quick connect, male threads, One on back of gun.\*\*

Quanity-3 of ST-N6 ,Male quick connect, female threads, used on hoses.\*\*\*

Quanity-1 of 1/4DD44B Elbow used on ball

Quanity-1 of 1/4X3/8FF33B reducer used on elbow and ball.

\*\*One of the Blower guns appears to have one BST-6 and one BST-6M on the end.

\*\*\*Another possible variation, The use of these brass Male portions of the quick connect.

I could be wrong but the pics in the Reference appear to have these screwed into the Steel Fitting below.

The other variation being, just use the Steel Fittings.

STEEL FITTINGS:

Quanity-3 of ST-N6 ,Male quick connect, female threads, used on hoses.

I was under the impression it was some kind of plastic tray. When looking at the reference pics, the gauge of the material looks pretty thick. My guess is it might be some kind of slide out tray.

This is a great list. Thanks for getting it started.

Depending on how precise you want to be, I’d change “Shoulder strap with mounting rings and 1/4” [p-clamps](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/p-clamp) x1" to

“5-panel 2” black seatbelt webbing or suitable substitute shoulder strap with mounting rings and 1/4" p-clamps x1"

Been doing a little research/discussing the Fittings used on the hoses and it would seem you only need the ST-N6 Male w/ Female threads Steel Fittings.

Any objections to this?

Another little detail for the super accurate.

LC-1 shoulders are needed.

The kidney appears to be a modified LC-2 with the Newer Clip.

Similar to this one:

I want to say the Nylon webbing on it is more Tan that Olive but I may be wrong.

I had a question on the tanks. The main tank on the [Slime Blower](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/slime-blower) Plans v1.0 here on GBFans states it’s 11 inch diameter by 43 25/32 inches tall. Then the two side tanks are 5 23/32 inches by 20 2/10 inches tall and 4 13/64 inches by 23 2/10 inches tall. In the main tank measurements of yours Colin that is a very large difference. Which should a person really rely on? If the plans are that far off shouldn’t they be fixed on the main website?

</div>

Quick question on the Parker quick connects. The list says 2 BST-6 and 1 BST-6M on the gun and 3 BST-6 on the gun. I am wondering if they shouldn’t all be BST-6 from the build threads I have seen. I just can’t really tell from the screen grabs where the single BST-6M would go. I would assume that it is the one behind the angular bent aluminum strip in the bottom left of the alice frame. I want to make sure that this build is as accurate as possible. Also how do the hoses connect to the pack with only quick connects on the gun side. Sorry if this was a confusing post.

Thank you,

Adam

</div>

The BST6M goes on the Alice frame behind the aluminum bracket, where the two hoses connect to the pump box you dont really need fittings since the hose covers completely so not much point in spending the money for fittings, you can use some grey male/female pvc conduit connectors to attach to the box and hoses attach to them.

Hope that helps.

The BST-6M goes on the back of the Gun.

![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/store/235_5639519580.jpg)

See that short one on the right.

For the pump boxes I used two 3/4" PVC Male Adapters.

Like this:

![image](http://www.fleetfarm.com/products/images/medium/0000000065179.jpg)

Painted and attached:

How I went about attaching my hoses was I placed them on the fitting and used a little bit of tape to hold them in place.

Then, I used a hose clamp to really secure it and then wrapped that all in tape:

I then used a couple 3/4" conduit lock-nuts and some hot glue to secure them.
