Awesome build. I too am moding a Rubies. So on the spring, was the pvc pipe you wrapped it around approximately the same diameter as the blaster? Also the thinner wire makes it easier to snake into the slot?
New recruit here. Just now seen this thread. I'm in the process of moding a rubies E11 blaster. I'm just going to make my own power cylinders and and add some curly wires to them and I think they will look kick @*$. Since not all E-11s from ANH had them
I got myself a cheap Rubies E-11 blaster on the way that I will be modifying to look realistic. Also my buddy found one at Goodwill for a buck that he gave me. Now I can be a two gun gunslinging Stormtrooper!! Ha ha ...just kidding
So I've been gathering all the tools I have to start my build and not having to buy extras that I don't need. Most of my "credits" will be spent on fasteners and such.
I guess I meant by fasteners is all the snaps and rivets and screws. I'm going with the strap method to fasten my armor together. Do you still sell all of the hardware?
Do the straps have to be nylon? What about heavy cotton, as long as they are black. I have some old heavy cotton belts I thot about using but I will have to dye them black.
AAwesome. Thank you for the good advice. I will look into it. I can't wait for my BBB day =') where is the best place to get all of the snaps and fasteners at. I've seen some places to get all of them from one source.
Has anyone used Stormtrooper voice changers from Hytech Toyz?
If so what is your opinion of them? And are the low budget voice changers good for a beginner TK build. My armor is on the way.
Thanks in advance.
