Any shot of you including (or selling) “rainbow tube” nixies, for a more accurate gb2 look? ---

I love this kit. Any updates on the tutorial for the main board electronics? [![image](http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm2/nosllit/13177CF6-F5AB-43A0-8CD2-BE53026F7F83_zpseycr3ugh.jpg)](http://s292.photobucket.com/user/nosllit/media/13177CF6-F5AB-43A0-8CD2-BE53026F7F83_zpseycr3ugh.jpg.html) ---

I think I have that same panavise… I finished building another set and have lots of photos. Just putting it all together, so hopefully tomorrow evening?

Thanks Doug! Great news about the tutorial. I was on a roll last night. I put what I could on the main board and can’t wait to finish it up. Yeah the panavise is a handy dandy tool. Really great when you wish you had another set of hands. ---

More progress, Just put on the obvious.

Are you sure you need any instructions?!? Looks fantastic! Here is a link to the PDF file containing the instructions. It has been a long late night getting these written up, so go easy on me, but feel free to ask questions if something is incoherent!

Don’t mean to make this a build thread really but I love this kit. Spent a few hours on it and this is where I am with it.

These kits are fantastic but in the present condition, the daughterboard is not a right size to be worn on a belt if you are using an accurate GB2 style belt. The belts on the GB2 were 3 inch wide as opposed to 2 inch. I managed to make mine work by crafting a loop tag to the daughterboard using Velcro. This isn’t to knock Doug’s product, it’s just for people who have a GB2 style belt to know what to expect. ---

The size of the daughterboard is based on these reference photos of the actual props: [http://www.gbfans.com/equipment/uniform/calculator-circuit-board/](http://www.gbfans.com/equipment/uniform/calculator-circuit-board/) ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/store/694_4271212919.jpg) ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/equipment/reference/26/4.jpg) Here is a photo of the Gizmo2 daughterboard on my belt: ![image](http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n2/spongeface/Gizmo2/Gizmo2_DB_zps522fb554.jpg) and you could position it like in this photo by clipping it upside down to the bottom of the wider belt: ![image](http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n2/spongeface/Gizmo2/gizmo2_zps4d8c1a87.jpg) ---

First time I’ve seen it upside down like that as it appears on Ray’s belt, interesting. I’ve seen some ref shots of the GB2 boards on black belts that almost makes me wonder where there different size gizmos produced for the two belts. Your daughterboard looks perfect on the khaki belt though. ---

I just want to say I spent the weekend building my kit and it is amazing. And it was quite fun to build too. I feel much more proud of it since I did it with my own hands too. This is only the second big soldering project I’ve done. So thank you very much. ---

Great kit Spongeface, finally got some time and broke out the soldering iron for the first time since high school (almost half a lifetime ago!) and got to work on my Gizmo. [![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/0/7/0749076f549eaa630865a30e5a7525927922cfaf.jpeg)](http://smg.photobucket.com/user/starburst_x01/media/Costumes/Ghostbusters/gizmo-daughterboard_zpsixyfuv2u.jpg.html) Not the best soldering in the world but some good practice, got this together rather quickly but when it comes to the motherboard Im going to go slower let the solder heat up longer get a proper weld and build it up over a couple nights. Need to go pick up some primer and Halfords matt black paint to spray the nixie shelf tomorrow. Looking forward to getting this finished, just hope I can do a good enough job on the working parts.
