Combining two expensive hobbies of mine and having a little Halloween fun.

Lol I think that's fairly obvious. No it's not going to be 100% accurate... There is a scooter underneath . It will look like a speeder in the end but not like the movies. Here are a couple more pictures just building up the seat for support as well as support for the body when I sit on it.

Started building a frame under the body of the bike to support my weight. In then going to attack it to a black plastic bin which in turn will attach to the seat post. Will update soon

No sure if they are still available but ill message you contact info

Yes of course the body will be levelled this is just balanced on there with a lick and a promise. Be kinda silly to be riding around an angled speeder. As far as the height I think you are right it has to be a bit taller but not going to go much more. Really want to try to keep the scooter hidden underneath. The body is actually positioned right over the seat and I think it will balance out in the end (fingers crossed)

Okay going to try to use a three wheeled grandma scooter to build a soeeder bike on for parades. This is a basic idea of placement. Question I have is do you think it's too low? My reasoning is that I can cover most the scooter with the build if its this low but, in kinda worried about curbs. For the controls I'm just going to use the ones provided by the scooter for now and mount them in the nose section. The air tank in the picture (without the reg) is basically the same size as the controller body without handles so I think it will fit nice. May create screen like arms for looks and possibly attach to the controller in the future. Any thoughts would be appreciated. This is going to be a very long building process as my two sithlings (ages 1, and 2) take up most my free time. My goal is to be finished by spring Also like to thank SC and Pandatrooper for helping me get this far.

Sc is an older version now.

Oh and remember this is the first generation of SC helmet not the new one!

Thanks griff!

One more question is this similar in size to the original? If so this may help a bit with people wondering about the size http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=9028&view=&hl=&fromsearch=1

I have to say these look amazing. I assembled two of the original buckets (which i still have) and I have to say I'm looking forward to assembling one of these. One question will the visor section come cut out in the kit? I hate cutting them out

Well I can't see it why it will be boosting membership maybe lowering the number of new people registering if anything as the cost and difficulty is going up... or, were you speaking of boosting lancer numbers? If you want the costumes to be so close to Lancer why not just make the Lancer requirements the CRL?

Nice! Can't wait to see your progress

That's a classy looking display room. Very nice

Nice! Can't wait to see it

Here is a helmet comparison I did. KS is on the left , SC on the right/middle, partially modded rubies on the right (also my zombie helmet) here is the link to the album

Hey guys I hope some of you may find this useful if you are trying to decide between armors. I decided to do a side by side comparison of my KS and SC armors before I ship my KS to its new owner. I hope you find it useful. I also did a helmet comparison as well in the helmet section of the forum. KS is on the left of the photos, SC on the Right i'm too lazy to post all the pictures right now so here is a link to the album

Hmm I have a DLT-19 collecting dust in the crawl space I sence a little mod.

if you are replacing the strapping on your drop boxes just make it one piece though the box with one end coming out each side looking around the clip then back in. if you do it that way you don't have to worry about securing it.

I used a football helmet sunshades for one of my helmets. It works great and it's naturally flexible...

I love my KS helmet it's super light and looks good. I also like my SC helmet it's just too bad they don't make them anymore. My rubies conversion is very heavy and it's now been designated as my zombie trooper helmet

Welcome to the forum. This is a great place to start and I'll send you a pm regarding the helmet

Nice!! When are you making mine

I agree slots look like a good size. I also used rivets to connect the pieces, one at the top one at the bottom
