Recently I bought a second hand chest and backplate... Upon receiving them, I see that the straps are incorrect now with the CRL and there is some minor cracking in places. Can a front/back plate be repaired? can rivot holes be filled enough to repair previous builds? Or did I learn a valuable lesson??? Just curious... thanks guys! Matt

Hey gang... Just a couple of questions.... I am in the process of putting together my Snow Scout rig and have been picking up pieces as I go... yesterday, I spent some time with local TB brother, TB7024 working on some armor and getting some ideas. Looking thru Zach's gear, I noticed that he only uses a small amp speaker for helmet transmission... I did some searching on the internet and found a few references to different gear etc.... in particular the ROMFX... But being in the States, I was just curious if anyone had attempted to do something similar with and arduino???? I know I have used them quite a bit in my R2 build for various things from lights to pre-recorded sound effects to opening doors... just wondered if anyone had tried. thanks for the info!

Not bad at all! Curious about what type of machine this was printed on...and what layer height he was using.... I am using a Solidoodle 3 with a layer height of .10 and relly have gotten away from alot of layer lines unless I am printing really huge parts.... Keep up the good work! Cujo

Thanks guys! Going to be a long print... about 8-10 seperate pieces... But it is coming along.. hopefully will have more pics tomorrow! Cujo

Hello gang! New to the forums and the group, but I wanted to post and show you my current project. Recently at an event at the Discovery Center in Milwaukee, WI, I was approached by TB-7024 Zack W. who was interested in my 3D printing rig that I was displaying and demoing. After some good chatter, he asked me if I had ever printed any prop weapons... I showed him my version of the "Samaritan," Hellboy's pistol. He liked it pretty well and asked me to try something for him. So I fired up my solidoodle 3 and started to printing.... working on his inquiry.... the DC-15a. Here is a image of my printer: And here is my attempt at the DC-15 up to this point.... This main barrel section was printed in 3 pieces and had been bonded together with Acetone. It is strong and sturdy and LIGHT! It is also reinforced with 1 1/2 piece of PVC pipe. More images to come as I complete more! Observations? Critiques? Input? Matt in Cheeseheadland
