it weighs in at somewhere between 30-45 pounds... i havent got a scale to actually weigh it... its pretty heavy though!
thanks!
 
I just use this thread, that I dont have to open a new one...

Can anyone help out with sizes of the tanks and the boxes? I already checked gbfans, but it seems the plans there got incorrect sizes and the tanks are to small... Maybe somecan can tell me the sizes he use for the blower... thanks...
 
i managed to book mark some things because im trying my hand at a new set of ghostbusters props. im working on pack numbers 8-10, after i get my jetpack done.

these are a few slimeblower threads that are helpful to get some ideas off of when making your own slime blower. im not entirely sure about them having measurements, but because the slime blower is so rarely done, i think you can get away with eye balling alot of it. every one of these is helpful in its own way.

good luck
 
Thanks... Tere are lot of differences between the different blowers, but it looks that every blower got higher tanks than my (unfinished) blower...

So, what will be a good way to continue? make each of the tanks higher or just go on after the plans and see what happens?!?

probably just build up from what you already have. it shouldnt be too much off. are you talking side tanks or the middle one?
 
every tank... I checked last night GB Dans Plans and his main tank is a lot higher, and so the green tanks...

So everything is a little bit wrong now... I decide to build with the measurements of GB Dan, and the rest with slimer7's plans. The boxes and all the other stuff is not really too much different to the other versions.

So I hope everthing will fit. First I have to make the main tank higher, and tomorrow I get some new side tanks and a new motherboard, because the old is a little bit to small; of course I will use a new plan with a different form of the motherboard.
 
Yeah, I know too good. When I build my first proton pack it was a desaster, too...

I swear to myself I will never (NEVER!) buy or build or have a prop that is less 98% acurate.

So, I want to have a nice min. 98% acurate slime blower and keep it, and dont want to rebuild it 3 or 4 times...
 
lol i understand. its better for me to see how much ive improved each time i rebuild them. how is your slime blower coming along now?
