Thanks buddy!

Thought I'd post here, Chris (tubachris85x) is considering casting the thermostat disc again. If you need two of these for the Hoth scanner, please reach out to him and get on the list.

I still haven't heard anything from Prophunter or shaggy13 since my initial invoice info messages for the laser cut metal parts went out on March 15. This is concerning as I ordered and paid for parts for you both so if you bail now I will be out money, which is obviously a drag. Please respond to my messages in the next 48 hours so I can get your info and finalize your invoices.

I did not receive an actual invoice...did I miss something?

Was waiting for it along with the costs for the hardware I signed up for

You haven't missed anything! I haven't sent out the actual invoices just yet, I'm still getting that organized and need to hear from the last few people on the run list. The hardware is going to be $10 USD per set as mentioned in the my run thread, so it'll be $20 USD for your 2 sets.

I've been working on this prop for some time now. I lost interest but after seeing this thread I think i'm jazzd to see if I can finish it. I am sure some of my dimensions are off. I only ha some photos to get my measurements from but did the best I could.

 

[Dagobah Don]

Wow. Nice. Have some of these greeblie been identified? I’m especially interested in the pieces that look like they have small hose connectors. Never heard what they might be.

 

[PropWeasel]

Looks like if you read the thread they have finally identified quite a few of the pieces. I couldn't find anything but photos of the actual prop when I started with mine. I just modeled them best I could and 3d printed.

I did go back but didn’t see anything conclusive on this piece?

 

[PropWeasel]

That one I don't think they have identified or at least I didn't see any info on it.

 

[thd9791]

Nope, I think I helped trace out the stamping on the part but that didn't help

 

[Max Replica]

Has anyone who has the genuine soap dispensers started putting theirs together yet, or is everyone waiting until more of the pieces become available?
I'm just curious since I think I'm going to start piecing together what I've got so far and I thought I'd see what others were doing to connect to two soap dispensers together (and even the disassembly and removal of the original parts that are not needed).

 

[bobasfett]

I posted a thread in the Junkyard about some Schrader greeblies I have for trade. Overall, they are exact to the ones on the prop but the grooves are square cut instead of rounded. Accuracy nut here, so trying to see if anyone would like to trade (with $$$ from me of course) for the 100% correct ones.

i could use a model of the housing part i think it sold out
