I've decided to build my first pack.
Like most newbies in my situation I'm trying to decide the best way to go while trying to not break the bank. I've been talking to a few other ghost heads like myself who share their input and advice which i greatly appreciate.
But I'm trying to decide on the best shell to buy because I don't have the time or space to build one from scratch. With the shop down for the month I'm wondering if there are any equally as good options for a proton pack shell.
GB of Salem NH suggested this one by studio creations: http://www.studiocreations.com/HOWTO/gb ... index.html
It looks good and keeps me on a low budget track. But what is a good thickness of shell I should be looking for when considering all he parts I have to attach.
Of all the parts on the pack I'm quite fond of the bumper and booster. Most of the boosters I'm finding on eBay are the tube but I can't seem to locate the cap. Am I missing something?
Overall I believe my first pack will be a lightweight shell with a combo of resin parts and real resistors and such.
Sorry if this post is scattered thoughts and questions.
Looking forward to this build.
