Proton Pack

UPDATE! New images of this pack will be updated soo with kewl lighting effects. The lights were obtained as a running light assembly from the local auto parts store as well as the tire valve stem lights. Well it's a pack made from stuff you can find in a Radio Shack, Wal-Mart, Target, and home depot. Also Check out www.mcmaster.com for the hollow polycarbonite tubes (the tip of the gun) This took 57.5 hours. I used plans from Paranorman and like page 1 of the nice schematic. Yeah I changed things up a bit, but a good prop maker fools with the fools. I usually never make the same prop twice so i will not be remaking this. The parts are made from wood metal and plastic. Alas the bumper was the hardest thing to concieve, i might redo this part. Ok So the base board is a board and the boxes are a combination of radio shack project boxes and wood boxes I made. The SyncGen is a upside down Rubbermaid dish with wood all around. The big heat sink tube is a go snack bottle, i think is much more interesting to look at. For most of the tupe like items it is painted PVC tubing. For a chapo clippard replica, painted white-out bottle. The Neutrona wand has fairly normal parts, wood, pvc pipe, and hardware. The grips are Steering wheel cover, lot of grip for less money! Pretty cool tip #1: If you have access to old computers, take them apart (especially the pwer supplies) for some great hardware!)
