Wow, last post was 2018. Is this pack ever going to get completed?? Nah. Once this thing got signed it became frozen in time. I don't want to change anything, even if it doesn't have a gun or if the synchrotron is pretty far from the screen used ones. Maybe one day I'll make another one though. Now...

Hey [mention]KoCo [/mention], what is the plate that the castle nut, bolt and (what I assume is a) washer sit on in the nozzle? Hey Kevin, That plate is just that -- a plate! It's just a disc of aluminum that I cut the appropriate notches/holes into. Also, I know I keep saying exciting things are a...

The last modification to make before Salt Lake FanX was to install some LEDs in the blower's gun. I've been putting this off for a long time. There's not a lot to say here, other than it really makes the blower gun look neat! https://i.imgur.com/Mh8ekro.jpg And here's a couple pics from the con afte...

Boy, it's been a while. I have some updates for the gun coming at some point. Until then though: I wanted to wear the blower to a local con, but wanted to fix a couple things on it first. The biggest thing were the heat sinks for it. When I made my blower years ago, I didn't have many tools. As such...

This is too damn awesome! Just wanted to ask everyone here if they know who's making commissioned slime blowers? Aside from Karnivorous Creations I know of no one else building one for sale. Thanks! I don't believe anyone else is doing full commissions right now. Karnivorous Creations is doing grea...

I replaced the awful U-handle base plate I had made a couple years ago. I bought a 3/16" wall pipe with an inner diameter matching the outer diameter of the blower gun. I had the shop I bought it from cut it down to a 3" length. https://i.imgur.com/7FgGRI4.jpg Unfortunately, my phone died ...

Demon Vice Commander is a member of these forums. I'm sure he'd be willing to talk with you if you sent him a PM.

I'm just working out of my garage. I was able to cut the body in half on my bandsaw. That was pretty fun. I had a roommate at the time help me feed it through and keep it aligned so we could make sure it didn't rotate during the cut. After that, I trued it up with a belt sander until each half sat f...

Where did you get your nose cone piece? And where did you get the metal for the body of the gun? First of all, I want to say We made it to the third page finally! The nose cone and rear end cap were made by Crix (aka Heavy Props). They were the prototypes of a run that he was planning on doing. No ...

We're so close! A week ago or so I drilled and tapped 44 holes on the blower! Yay! https://i.imgur.com/00Isver.jpg I then added the U-handle with the lock nut I sourced about a year ago. Lookin' nice. https://i.imgur.com/9HIYAIh.jpg The biggest thing I wanted to cover in this post was the strap. In ...

This past week I worked a lot on the blower's internals. I originally wanted to make them out of steel conduit/fittings, but that ended up not working due to the small space available within the blower. So I went with PVC. If a fitting ended up being too large to fit inside the body, I could just cu...

Before I forget, I have another small update. I've been trying to find either heat shrink tubing or gaffer tape that was a light brown to go on the end of the smaller Parker fitting on the back of the gun for quite a while. I finally was able to find some heat shrink tubing at a local electronic sto...

How is this gun not finished?! I aim to fix that soon. I'm nearing the end of fabrication, and will soon be able to assemble this beast. A couple years ago, I was able to get some good reference photos of the gun handle. Unfortunately, I'm not able to share those images with the community. I am able...

Back to work! I recently picked up a 3D printed reboot gun kit from Demon Vice Commander. It's beautiful. He did a great job modeling it. More on that later. I then was able to get together with Joe Luna, and in the hour or so that we were hanging out, we managed to ID the correct switches for the r...

I've been meaning to make this post for some time. Finally got a new laptop today, so I am able to access all my old files. Among them, I had backed up this label template that Goffcorp created. Once again, I did not create this file. I am just posting it here so that people have access to it again....

That was probably two or three years ago, but I think I used a Krylon something or another.
Honestly, I have no idea. I think your best bet is to go into a hardware store with reference photos. There's probably a ton of paints that would be almost exact to the blower main tank.

Hello James, Thanks for the kind words. The absolute correct paints have never been researched or ID'd (thirty years after the fact, this may be an impossibility), but what I did was opened an image on my phone much like this one, and went to the hardware store. Rustoleum fern green looks perfect, a...

Do you remember were you bought your bollards? I am starting to collect parts and that looks the best way to make the Tanks. The main tank was found on eBay. Sadly, they sold out shortly thereafter. I want to say the larger side tank bollard cover is readily available on Amazon. I want to say it wa...

Hey there,
I do have the file, however the laptop it is stored on is down for repairs right now. I'll post it up when it gets fixed later this week.

Time for an update! I've been preparing to build the internals for this project. It's gonna be a heavy beast, but it'll mostly be for display, so oh well. I went ahead and started on the nozzle. I ordered two small steel tubes, one slightly shorter and thinner than the other. I heated the large one,...

Well, finally some progress has been made! I'm gonna try to get this gun done as soon as possible so I can start refurbishing the slime blower, itself. First, I cut down the 4.5" pipe on the bandsaw. The two caps fit nicely after some grinding. http://i.imgur.com/JizFMAA.jpg Then I decided it w...

Hi, I know this is an old thread but hopefully someone can help. Does anybody have a manufacturer and part number for the 2 aluminium pump boxes? I haven't been able to find them anywhere but I have seen pictures of other builds where it appears people managed to actually find the same ones as used...

Wow, it's been a while since this thread got updated. Earlier in the year, I designed a set of reboot v-hooks for JoeLuna to sell along with his motherboards. A second run isn't planned, so he and I decided it was time to post these blueprints up for other people to use. I've been told that a member...

Updates coming soon (finally). In the meantime, here's this cool little image. These parts were made by Heavy Props (Crix here on the boards). Mash that "like" button on Facebook if you haven't already. https://www.facebook.com/HeavyProps/ http://i.imgur.com/3GDZiSj.jpg Next up, a ball val...

This is the link from which I bought it. Spongeface's Amazon link was out of stock when I bought.

Alright, here we go. The part you're referring to is an S-hook. Standard S-hooks can be bought at most hardware stores. They look like this: https://static.grainger.com/rp/s/is/image/Grainger/4RHX1_AS01?$mdmain$ To make it usable on a proton pack, simply take one end with a vice or some pliers, and ...

Oh man, this is what happens when I leave for a week. Hey, been lurking for a while. Loving this build and it's giving me great ideas and insight. Any idea on how thick your MOBO is? I'm on the hunt for aluminum as we speak...er...type. The motherboard is 1/8" aluminum. Mine was from JoeLuna's ...

Or maybe you could call your bank and close your account really quick!

Hope that helped!

Well, first you have to have a gold supporting membership. Without that, he won't get your messages. You could try going to his warehouse in Colorado, but he may not answer without the use of the secret GBFans knock. I would recommend a summoning ritual, which involves arranging money and vintage Le...
