Well done Charles, have fun on the death star

Maybe on your back then

Made a flap for the left front side

Very nice, still waiting on mine wink wink

Not that I have my armor yet but I did think of this problem, I purchased a travel document bag, has a large pouch and strap to hang around your neck, thought I could wear it under my chest plate

I cut the head off a small bolt, drilled a hole in the back of the switch and in to the body, threaded the bolt into the switch then glued the other end into body, the thread in the switch allows you to move the switch into either position.

Nice work, keep it up

Trimmed butt and body to take spacer ring

WOW will they make centurion ha ha ha ha

Congrats, well done Charles

Very cool, well done

Looking very nice, if only i could get access to a machine shop

Found some more accurate screws

Nice work there Charles, good luck with approval

Very cool thanks for sharing '

Not sure if you have seen this Alan but lots of detail pics here Thanks for the kind words Marcus

You are welcome Just thought I would add that I do scuff the pvc before glueing, so it gives the glue something to bite on to

The other side details

Trigger detailing

A few of the finer details on the grip cover plates Selector switch and mount screws

Thank you, I don't know who posted them as there is no names on the plans. I have found a couple of bits that need updating and when I have finished my build I could pass them on to you if you would like. Thanks for making the plans origanlly

First grab a piece of pvc pipe (thick walled), cut it to the right length of the parts you need and then cut a slot down one side Next heat the pipe for a few minutes, you know when it is heated enough as you can see the pipe distort. Open out, don't use fingers to do this as it is hot Then flatten between two pieces of wood and hold down until it's cooled The you have your flat plastic, draw your piece to shape, mine is for side grip cover plates for my DLT-19 Here they are Hope this is a help to some of you

Time to make the side grip plates, finding sheets of plastic is a bit hard so I came up with a trick to make some. First grab a piece of pvc pipe, cut it to the right length and then cut a slot down one side Next heat the pipe for a few minutes, you know when it is heated enough as you can see the pipe distort. Open out, don't use fingers to do this as it is hot Then flatten between two pieces of wood and hold down until it's cooled The you have your flat plastic, draw your piece to shape There you go, side cover grips cut, just have to make the grooves, going to try heating a small strip of metal ten pushing into the plastic to leav an impression. If this doesn't work I will just cut slots with the dremmel

What can I say but
