I'm a recent convert to the art of replica making (and woodcraft in general). Projects have included several full and partial proton pack, wand and trap builds, as well as a full-blown, scratch built arcade machine (MAME for those of you who are arcade fans).

Thought it would be fun to try my hand at something a little different. The prop is made from cardboard, EVA foam, paper and fake fur bought at Walmart. The inside pages were reference images from the web. Overall I’m pretty pleased.

Hey all- I’ve been wanting to do another scratch build pack for awhile and decided to pull the trigger this past weekend. The pack is made from EVA and foamcore and weighs in at a nice light 15 lbs. Obviously, there were a few shortcuts I took to get the pack completed in less than 12 hours, but o…
