Hey guys,

One of the radiologists at the hospital I work at asked me to bring my suit in cause he’s a big fan. So after a little encounter with the cops (they thought I was an exterminator) I rocked up at work today with the kit on and pack blaring loudly. He then told me we should x-ray it, which I obliged to.

I also did a round of the kids ward, but they weren’t very enthused. I think they were expecting He-man.

Whew, looks like you may of just bruised it, as according to these x-ray scans your [Ion Arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm) isn’t broke after all!

This just means they have bad parents.

Cool X-ray though. Looks like all your bolts went in straight.

Ah man. Back in, shit, 2009, my buddies and I were exploring buildings downtown and we entered the Supreme Court library building. The place had an x-ray machine, but it was practically deserted. I’d always wanted to take a pack to get x-rayed somewhere but I could never find a place that had a machine and was also so empty that I could take the time to convince the operator to do me a favor.

But this is way, way WAY better than the machine I wanted to put mine through. This is ■■■■■■■ awesome, great job, GREAT job!

What is the resolution of the image? It would make a really cool wallpaper.

Haha cheers guys. Yeah it was fun, FYI, it was done on a Phillips Brilliance 64 Slice CT scanner. The pack is way too big to fit on a standard xray plate, but that would have had nicer contrast, and no distortion. I do have the DICOM (xray format) images, but they are quite large, considering the length of the scan was 1.2 meters 😛 Not too sure what the full resolution is, these are low res copies, I’d have to goto work and check on the scanner.

This was actually done for a department art competition, so if we do end up getting it printed, I’ll look into getting a bunch done if others want them. No promises on that though.

what are the D ring and circle thing next to the palm rest on your thrower? if i had to take a guess i would say it looks like you have a ■■■■■■■■ your walkie holster, and the D ring is to adjust the length and the circle is a snap fastener..

am i right?

Not only is this really cool, but it is going to help me during my pack build. Being able to see the screw and bolt placements really helps.

Thank you!

😃 Glad to be of help Lannyjack. Though there are some things I’d probably do different, if I could have gotten a long bolt I’d have run that down the centre of the [bumper](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bumper) for one. None of the bolt shops would sell me an accurate bolt long enough to do it.
