  1. HWT Pack Build - SheaJeff

    in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance

    Posted

    This is an old problem that oddly has not been revised. There are screen captures of the HWT from Battlefront 2 here in the FISD. My HWT Pack build was based off of "Ukswrath" with some slight mod/changes here and there. Otherwise yes, the posted picture for HWT is incorrect as that pack is for TD (Sandtrooper).

    Apparently there was some differing opinions on the antenna in our Garrison during another's approval so I'm going to leave it off for now.

    It's not up to the Garrison to decide whether the antenna belongs there or not. It's in the CRL of the 501st; that supersedes what the Garrison says. And a combat radio with no antenna doesn't make sense

    Another update here.

     

    Hit up the dollar store to get some more supplies and did some more work on the boxes.

     

    The put some bondo in the seams on the radio box, sanded and primed it.

    Created the "vents" for the vent box.

    Did some more bondo work on the lower right angled box. Much happier with it now.

    Got some cups at the dollar store for the "cone" under the bottom right box.

    Also got a clorox wipes container for the middle cylinder. Here is the cylinder, bottom part of cone, and vents drying from the silver fox paint.

    Finished up the "button" box.

    Also picked up some measuring cups for the circles on the radio box. What do you think of the size? Do they stick out too much?

    I used Gatorade/Powerade caps for my radio knobs. Still deciding to look for actual dials from old/junk radios

  16. Icomm battery dying?

    in Electronics for Helmets / Blasters

    Posted

    I had a similar issue with the Icomm battery as well. I ordered the battery from the website which was inexpensive and easily replaced it. If it is affordable I would suggest to order more than one battery. I was having issues with the Icomm and the speaker; it was always clicking and not picking up any sound. But replacing the battery fixed that issue.

    Everything looks good and coming along! My Pauldron and both my ammo pouches came from Trooperbay. Ultimately you get what makes your character; what makes you look good! If you read my build thread of my HWT Pack, was based from Ukswrath. My box containers came from Dollar Tree and Walmart. With the radio box, I started off with a black Photobox from Pat Catans/Michaels. I upgraded that to an actual speaker box I found in my garage; which I stick an ihome mini speaker with an iPod that has trooper radio chat on continuous loop. Let me know if you need any pictures of my pack
