WIP-Proton Pack/wand tutorials/tips! Lights added Upd 8-24

Update!

I managed to get some stuff done… not much, but I got to drill some stuff, fill, sand, sand some more…

I drilled the end piece of the gun, and also cut the acrylic tip

Glued the whole thing together

I’ve always felt I was running short on space on the right side of the graph bar and since I’ll be getting Exoray’s wand light kit, I had to get rid of the frame around the graph bar anyway.

I used some epoxy putty to fill in the hole.

After sanding the epoxy. Looks rough but it’s very smooth. I’ll then apply primer, re-apply some more epoxy, sand again, and re-apply primer. Once I have the bar, or the exact measure, I’ll proceed and drill a new hole.

Applying primer to some parts that were ready to go.

Now onto the pack! This is the pack as it came outside the box. I didn’t do any drilling today. I sanded the whole thing with a 220 grit, washed it with some water to get rid of the fiberglass dust, and wet sanded the shell.

ALICE Frame. This one I got around 8 years ago. It has weird mustard yellow straps. I’d like to see if they can be replaced for the green ones. I don’t know much about this frame. I got it from ebay and I think this one will have to do. Do you know if those straps can be replaced?

That’s it for now! :slight_smile:
