The purpose of this thread is to highlight important or useful threads that have been posted in the Proton Pack section as well as examples of builds using a variety of materials.
The threads have been grouped based on the general parts used but are otherwise in no particular order or importance. This is by no means a complete list. If there is a thread that you think should be added to this list, post a link and a mod will add it if appropriate. We will clean up the thread as a whole when needed.
Some items in the listing may be repeated.
This is not a mistake - some items fall into two or more categories, and have been placed under multiple headings so they're easier to find.
If you find that a thread listed below has missing pictures or for any other reason is no longer valid please let us know.
Thanks to Some_Guy and ProtonCharger for helping to aggregate some of the initial list.
