Airborne Trooper[501st] Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Has anyone considered doing a run of fan brackets now that Echo has been extremely busy with work? I don't think it'll be a big deal since several people sell various fan setups already. I really just want a bracket so I can mount fans, switches, and hide my wires behind. I attempted to make my own out of acrylic but I lack all the tools to make a really nice one. If someone is willing to do a run of these or even one offs that would be awesome!

ukswrath[Staff] Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Yes. The type of material and having someone laser cut it is a bit pricey, but the most important fact is I don't want to steel that unique idea from him and profit from it. I've had a few convos with him regarding the topic and at the moment it is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne Trooper[501st] Posted June 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 I feel like if someone used a different material it wouldn't be a big deal. It doesn't matter to me as long as it's functional. There's nothing wrong with competition. If that was the case, Evil Boy would be the only guy here allowed to sell fan kits. Your current fan kit is basically identical with the exception that you offer several varieties on how to power it. I don't see anything wrong. Shoot, you offer a SHA after someone else had already been providing them too. People buy both, I chose yours because I liked the setup more. if there's a void in the market someone should step in. I don't think it's fair to the community to let someone corner the market especially when they have let everyone know that they have to put that on the back burner for now. It's been since February and we all understand life and other commitments come first. No one is mad at Echo. I just think there should be more options. If someone wants to PM me and avoid any drama that can offer a mount, that's fine too. It's getting hot and I lack all the tools and time to create my own at the moment.

I looked into making something similar and still may. My decision not to make them is as stated above, not to mention the material Echo is using is only available in clear, just like his. If I could get it in any other color this story may have a different ending. I'm still looking into other materials. A bracket would make my ability to finally build and sell a harness system to power all my electronics a dream come true. I haven't given up hope, I'm just being patient. As for my current fan systems the ONLY reason I'm making them is because Evil Boy owes me $$$ for the failed FOTK blaster disaster sales. I stated earlier this year in another thread I would continue to sell the fan kits until he steps up and pays people back. This is my way of getting my money back and serving the community . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuumantroop[TK] Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 What i do is just use a scrap piece of ABS left over from my build. I actually have been wanting to find some sort of clear material to replace my current prototype with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukswrath[Staff] Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 I ordered the exact same material Echo uses but I found it in black. Enough to make 20 brackets. Echo's were laser cut, mine will be done by hand, I'll let everyone on my sales thread know how it goes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher2-2 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Add me to the list please, definitely looking forward to a bracket for these fans to clean up the inside of the helmet. I hit up Echo, but then did a jaunt in Africa and had little connectivity to the internet and missed my opportunity, got back and now they've been discontinued.

ukswrath[Staff] Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Just an FYI I'm not going to start a list until I've been able to successfully make them. If peeps want to stay on top of the progress just follow my SHA sales thread. Cheers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
