This is how I made my PKE meter using a clothes brush, scraps of Sintra and foamboard. The only real cost was the £1 for the brush and my time.
There were no plans I could find that gave sizes so it’s all built by eyeballing the actual PKE.

I’m making a male v-hook for a friend to use to attach their Matty Thrower to their pack.
I understand it is slightly narrower than the movie accurate v-hook, unfortunately I don’t have access to the thrower to check I’ve shaved enough off.
If you have either bought a compatible one or made one fr…

Here is my scratchbuilt trap.
Aside from the handle it is made from foamboard/foamcore.
I made it to hang from my belt with materials left over from my pack as a last minute addition to my uniform.

Hi, apologies if this has been posted before. I had a look and couldn’t see anything that uses the materials I have used.
For this I started off with a sports cap from a water bottle.
The first step is to cut the bottle just before the thread and then trim the top of the cap.

It took about three weeks to put together but weeks of planning.
