Re: Proton Pack..Peperkura

why not? with many parts having 90 angles it would lend it self to be a good method to make a quick lightweight pack

I'd have to agree that the proton pack is one prop that should not be pepped. I'm not an expert at pepping, but I have had some experience in building proton packs. While I agree that being lightweight is a bonus, strength is also important. How would you reinforce the pepped parts? The main parts attach to a motherboard, onto which is mounted an ALICE pack frame. Below is a proton pack I made for Halloween 2010. It's made out of MDF, PVC, wood, and two cake pans for the cyclotron, and the synchronius generator. Electrical conduit boxes were used for the power cell. I built it in two weeks. Now if you want to try and do a pepped proton pack that's your choice. I won't stop you. I think it's much more fun building the pack from stuff you've got around the house. With the exception of the MDF, the cake pans, and the electrical conduit boxes, everything else I had on hand.

Well, if a lightweight pack is what you need, I'd be cheaper and much easier to buy a vac-formed shell off Studio Creations or ebay. I made one of these out of wood and PVC, with metal and resin parts and the pack can get heavy, around 30 pounds. A vac-shell would probably cut down the weight and look a lot better than having all those paper glue joints.
 
could I get the gun file too please, also is it posible to get the pass for the files?

I agree that a vacuformed shell and resin parts would make the pack lighter, but at the time I made the pack that I posted the photo of I was working on a shoestring budget. I had the wood, wiring, tubing, and PVC already on hand, I just needed to buy two sheets of 1/2inch MDF and two cake pans. I used wood glue on the inside of the pack and nails from a nailgun reinforced the joints The partical thrower is from another pack I built.
 
hi unheard, I'm a new user, I'm italian and I don't speak the english very good, i need te file of the proton gun for a work and i don't find it on web, can you send me the pdo file of the gun on my e-mail
 
I downloaded the pep files for the proton pack that unheard posted but they require a password to open any idea what the password is of who I can contact to get it thx.
 
I'm not sure if they are ProtonCharger's as unheard did not mention him as the creator, he did mention moveman but i believe that was the wand files creator, and the files name does not include the creator. If they are ProtonCharger's I understand why he locked them down but if not I would very much like to open the files to complete a proton pack giving credit to the creator of the files of course.
 
the proton was made by my m8 movieman he aloud me to post them on the 405th so all thanks goes to movieman.
you can just make the pep boxes then use pipes.

so in movieman's own word " I did this Ghostbuster proton pack model for some friends who wanted to be Ghostbusters last Halloween.

Please note: I made a mistake and the 3D model came out the wrong way round (mirrored) I did not notice this fact until I had completed all the unfolding, so to put this right I have inverted the 2D page so the model will be constructed the right way round.

Have fun Ghostbusting."

the proton gun scale is 1:1
