Hi, I have had the components for some time, well most of them. I finally found a T10 calculator panel ( had to buy the whole flash generator!!) and the Hama viewer two weeks ago.
So here we go....will not bore you with the build as its covered well enough at the Hyperdynelabs.com site which is pretty much the guru build site...very usefull. Many Thanks to those people for the build assistance through the photographs and text.
The pump widget is a resin unit, I guess cast from the original pump.
I have removed the overly thick base plate and replaced it with a more practical ( to my idea of how they would have added this plate to the original pump) and thinner styrene sheet which can be curved at the edges to meet the curve of the Kango body where it is to be mounted.
One thing I did want to do was replicate the trigger as the one my Kango had was very small and incorrect so I started to build it up with styrene, but in a way that it could still be depressed ( not emotionally :lol )
Paint is Krylon Flat Olive Drab, which I have used on my Pulse Rifle ( that thread is on here somewhere but PR to be finished within a month )
I have added weight ( approx 600g ) so that the finished prop has a good feel to it.
Three tictac packs filled with lead shot and resin.
More to follow, .tune in soon
Hope you like it so far
