That's funny!

So today was BBB Day for the dlt-19 printed kit I order off of Etsy.and from the experience I had with building my E-11, I can tell you right now I've got a lot of work to do! I see filling and sanding (a lot) in my future. Also, I've got my work cut out for me because the trigger is fixed and the main body is solid. Going to have to sleep on this until my grevious blaster gets here by the end of the week to figure out placement of the electronics. Looks like I'll be getting some more Millput as well. Overall with a little work it'll be a good kit. I'll have to get some hardware from the local hardware store for this build. Which shouldn't be a big deal. Can't wait to get started. Don't mention to my wife that I was suppose to refinish the kitchen table before I started another project. Actually, I'm trained better and know in the back of my head that she realizes that already. I'm playing oblivious.

Welcome!

Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but I tried to use the two raised strips in the abdomen ( red arrows ) to line up my thigh cover strips. Hope this helps.

So I went with this. For $32 USD can't wait to tear this up up! https://youtu.be/4Pa8zgbE1Mo?feature=shared

Yeah at this point I don't necessarily care if it's an accurate sound. It's hard to find any toy blasters that have lights and sound. Nerf guns are mostly silent.

So I'm searching for Blaster electronics from old toys to install in my DLT-19 after reading about @gmrhodes13 using toy electronics and was wondering if anybody had luck with gutting an old 1996 Lucas Films E11 blaster like the one pictured? I have some experience with electronics and soldering because of my profession as an electrician, but I've never done any coding or worked with Adrino or Rasberry I'd hate to tear it up if it's not going to work. And if it's not a good choice can anyone suggest a better blaster or a seller of blaster electronics?

Order a 3D kit from Etsy. BBB day for that is coming up soon. I can't wait to get this started. HWT in my future!

And that's some good help. He's got an awesome kit Kody.

I could be wrong but It looks like your chest plate needs to come down and overlap the ab plate slightly. Heres a picture of mine.

Nice find

Thanks Glen

I apologize if this has been brought up else where but does building a HWT require you to enlist it with the legion for a new TK ID? I'm sure some of you have it listed on your profiles and banners. Maybe I should look before asking Do their (HWT) IDs start with HWT or TK?

Has anybody tried these in a TK helmet yet? not to expensive. mounting them I guess would be the real issue.

How did you get your fur baby to sit still for that?

Thanks Glen, I remember seeing this and as usual not paying attention to details, I need to try this.

Uh oh, I just bought a Dlt-19 kit @justjoseph63

The illustrious screw that I didn't realize I covered up.

Same here!

I'd love to see a picture of this.

CA glue BUT!, test fit first. Trust me on that.

Now that I've been approved, I'm not sure where to put this topic but I've already had a lens on my helmet pop off. Just saying. It's an easy fix. I used the sugru to attach my lenses. There is an outline on the lens to help me drill holes and screw it to the hardened sugru. I ( my wife and I) are still struggling with getting me snapped together on the left shoulder and the abdomen. Also, after suiting up a few times I can see where foam padding would help reduce the clanking of ABS. Stealth would be impossible for me at this point.
