This wound up being mostly a GB1 pack but it does have the GB2 ribbon & the elbows are closer to GB2 than GB1...
Fortunately, this is a project that we had parts for before money became pretty scarce so - once we had the time - we dug in on this one, (we'd purchased the shell & a bunch of parts quite a while ago but hadn't dug in on the project because it seemed fairly daunting at the time).
I think we had to spend about $25-35 on hardware, (bolts, washers, etc), but we were able to keep the costs from the actual starting point onward to a minimum.
We made the N-Filter, Ion Arm Cap & Rod, the Booster Tube, & ribbon mounts by hand & the rest of the stuff we got as seconds from a guy on GBFans a while back.
Anyway, here are some making of pix, (my son managed to photobomb one of them).
We're basically at the point where all we have left to do is:
01. Decals
02. Thrower
03. Lights/Sound
