cheers guys! yep its all weathered now... I'll have to hunt down a pic someone took of me at the last event

I did a little step by step on making my lastest backpack using vacformed parts that I have made. http://www.fettgear.com/webprops/sandybpack/index.htm heres a side shot of the finished pack...

Buddy they are awsome! the nearest thing to the real thing!!!

nice work buddy!

Cleared for action in the UK!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOOOL !!!

Thank you so much guys! I only made then really for me and a couple of the UKG boys but it was very nice to have so many people ask if they could have one. I know they are not totally accurate by far! but they are ok and I think do look good on the back pack. I havent made loads of money from it ...to be honest I have covered costs and I am happy. The plastic in this country is more than you guys pay in the states and once you take in to conisderation the RTV and resin to make the knob moulds and then the knobs ... then the 4 hrs it takes to make and construct each one they have not been a profit making venture at all! LOL I never opporate like that anyway.. ask anyone in the UK Garrison and they will tell you, I am always to nice!! and out of pocket by never charging for things as I should.. I just like to help out where I can! We are all 501st and where ever you are in the world we are all part of the same amazing group! 501st Rocks! heres mine on my pack.

Hi mate no I dont understand the pauldron bit... could you pm me a pic?

I really like the lid off pic. Sandys do look soooooooooo Cool!

Nice work mate! I saw the pics on the garrison boards yesterday (well someone elses pics) I did a costume for my little boy last year he is 7yrs old but didnt get as far as a lid or making it screen acc

Well I put in for clearance yesterday.. fingers crossed. The backpack does go on straight but the wife wasn't very helpful!

Cheers guys! I like it more weathered than that but I think for clearance here in the Uk we have to keep it lean! LOL cheers!

Hi all I have finally got around to weathering my sandy, I have also finished the backpack but I havent photographed it yet. It needs a few changes but it seemed ok. What do you recon??

Happy Birthday boss! Jawa Juice??

Great! cheers for all that everyone! I am nearly ready to do my final fit and weather then put in for clearance with our UKG GML.... Simon Morrison... top fella!

Hi whats the prefered way to mount the lid on the TD? The lid has a neck with a flat at the end of it where it attaches to the TD. Do you remove the flat and mount it so the neck juts the disk out? or Do you remove the falt and the neck so the disk shape touches the TD shaft? thanks
