Here's my story; I will keep it short and sweet.
By day I am an angry federal law enforcement officer; by night I am a huge Ghosthead.
For years I have sat back and watched the community make some of the most beautiful things known to man in regards to the movie.
I am now in a financial spot where I can ACTUALLY join the fray.
Today I took the plunge and began the purchasing of major parts in order to build a pack.
The beautiful thing was that it was LITERALLY one stop shopping for the major portions to get started. Thank you for providing this site for reference, moral and technical support and items no less lol
So In a few months time, in between shifts, beers, and overtime, I will be posting updates on my SLOW progress.
I think I am shooting for a GB1 pack. Mostly because I wasn't a huge fan of GB2. That and this whore will be going into a special case with lighting in my mancave. That will be a sick conversation piece.
Bear with me on this journey. I will be hammering this thread with updates, pics, drunken ramblings, and questions as I am not what you call creative, artistic or have a simple building bone in my body.
As I go along, I will be requesting purchasing some parts (mostly aluminum bolt-ons) along the way.
In essence, I think I am out to prove that even a mental midget with no ability can do this.
Lets see if this can provide people sitting on the fence about whether they want or can do this the confidence to just dive in and attempt it. Learn...have fun.
My final note: Based on my career choice, and noting someone else's thread on this site. I am taking on this hobby as a way to bleed some stress after shifts off. I will be documenting my progress on both fronts along the way.
I thank you all in advance for the pokes, prods, encouragement, and help that will be coming in the months ahead.
Thanks!
