Find gEkX's list. That's what I used. I'll see if I can find the link.

This is what I used as a list.

Wow, how'd I miss that one? Thanks, Jay!

I second that! Thanks jay!! Phil we are so lucky to have this guy!!

Looks good to me. I'd pick up some extras of each just incase. Those screws have a tendency to go missing randomly during builds.

Word! I can never find the size I'm looking for so I buy more. Then when I clean up it's like, where did all these extra bolts come from?

HA! I have a feeling that I will have lots of those moments... =P

I know right? And then he modestly goes and says stuff like this...

No, buddy, you deserve it! Giving credit where credit is due! =D

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I had that moment earlier today looking for some 1/4" ID washers. Or some 8-32 long hex heads to mount my v hook.

Was about to ask what screw was needed to mount the ALICE frame to the Motherboard, but I figured I'd dig through Julz's stuff one more time... and then found this! Hooray for diligence and perseverance!!!

I used Julz' specs to make my spacers. My half moon is 3/4" MDF and the blocks are 1/2" plywood I laminated together to make 1" thick blocks.

I just used 5/16 bolts

1/4 phillips screws...

Hello there, Julz, welcome back, hoping all is well with you!

Hey Phil, any movement on the build? Been looking forward to this

LOL! You and me both! Well, Nickatron shipped out my Bumper, Booster Frame, Grips and Mobo Spacers yesterday, so I should be getting those soon... And then I'll have my shell and aluminum hero parts from Vincenzo and my Aluminum wand from RJ... They're backed up from the Halloween rush, so it may be a while... Hopefully by December... Only issue I will have really is painting in the Winter, so I'm most worried about that... Anybody have tips for Winter painting? I unfortunately don't have a garage to work in...

Yeah...don't lol. Anyway, if you really want it done in the winter, try to make friends with auto body painters. They have the equipment for clean and smooth finishing (less the trash in the air). The only other option is to warm up an enclosure and have an exhaust fan.
Fingers crossed though,we COULD have a heat wave hit at some point during the winter. Personally, I don't paint unless the temps are at a minimum of 65° F.

I'm in the same boat now. My thrower is back, but it's going to be cold and snow (yes, actual snow not freak storm snow) soon. You could always take the winter to dry fit and clean up chips in the shell and then paint in the spring.

Or, find friends with a heated garage.

My garage is uninsulated, but I keep a space heater in it. If you need a spot to come over one weekend, Phil, you';re more than welcome.

Hooray!!!

HEHE! Friends

Ah the good old GB wait hey buddy. It'll be well worth it. I can't wait to see it take shape. As for winter painting, I can be of no use, I'll have a heated outhouse/workshop to paint in

DRUMROLL!!!!



...and so it begins...

Mother.... of .....God.

Yeeeeesssss! I cannot wait for this. Good luck Phil

FINALLY! "IT HAS BEGUN!"

I'm glad to see that you are finally ready to get the build rolling; your patience and dedication to accuracy will be well rewarded. We are all here to help and cheer you on as the Hasanon pack takes form!

Looks awesome! I'm so bummed I'm not going to be able to see this in person on 3/14

Man oh man! Pretty sweet!

Will you not be able to make it to the parade? (and it's on the 15th, by the way)

...and I will need all the help I can get! Thanks everybody!

...aaaaand mounted to ALICE Frame! I swear, drilling a hole into my precious vintage LC-1 ALICE Frame was nerve-wracking! Turned out good, though, and the metal of the frame seems sturdier than I thought... maybe I'll get lucky and this one won't ever snap on me... *fingers crossed*

If anything, I have two brand new (literally still in box, never been used) LC-2 ALICE frames on standby... I should have bought more than one of these LC-1 babies when I found them for $25 each... Really kicking myself for that...

Sadly no Phil even though I live just seconds from Boston. I'll be in NC on vacation.

I know what you mean, Phil... but what a rush when everything works out, eh?

Your mounted pack looks great. Congratulations on this milestone!
