Congratulations and welcome to the PO ranks. You did a great job and hope there is a celebration in Europe so I can troop with you there. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

I hear ya. They are heavy! .. but sound and look awesome . Found interesting ways to carry mine too. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Nice new filter! Looks great. But What happened to the old Tupperware container you had? The shape was spot on, ..just needed to lose the nubs in its corners. Lol.. A nice touch would be to paint the silver screws you have holding the trays together. If someone would take a picture of you with a flash, they will really shine. Your doing awesome work!

Everything looks really good. Nice work on the filter pack 5! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

That’s a great pics Greg! I have a couple more of us I’ll send you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

That looks great! Super dirty and such a cool fieldpack.. you’ve set the bar!.. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

No problem, we are all here to help our fellow troopers. The new realignment looks really good! As far as the oil filter goes, I’d suggest, yes, replace it. I know bigwam has a good looking 3D print on his pack and pandatrooper has a tutorial out there on how to make one. I made mine, and would be more than happy to help you out. In fact, I’m rebuilding my pack so I can share the details on how to make the filter in a few days. I’m still on vacation in Hawaii...lol.. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Great to see you going for the filter pack. I know PO is not SWAT, but it’s always nice to see people going for accuracy.. that toilet syphon you have.. great stuff. But there are a few things that really stick out. Here is a screen pic. And as you can see, there is only very small gaps between the filter, bottle, and Tupperware, and the filter used is also quite different. there is also no tape on the Tupperware or wire on the radio. Just double check..is that radio vac formed ? There is some sharp details but the edges are really round.. just curious. As I said the syphon is great, but don’t forget to cut off the the nub on the dome.. The radar dish needs to have a black, not white disk on the back of it. And the seed trays.. They seem to be missing the needed ribs.. Wouldn’t hurt to slide the radio up so it’s hanging over the top of the bottom seed tray. Hope this didn’t come across as too critical. Your armour is looking great and I’m sure you want the same for your pack. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

That is a cool idea for painting the butt stock. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

Wire placement looks good. Good luck! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking good mirador. And yes, even if you plan on emulating a trooper with a different configuration. We all start the same.. lol.. My SWAT armor doesn't have a fieldpack , but I'm glad I needed it for PO bcz it's great to troop with every once in a while. Specially when there is no weapons allowed. And more props and gear is awesome!.. Good luck with your approval. So far so good. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

That is a one of the best paint jobs I’ve ever seen! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looks great so far! The handmade props are my favorite. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

I picked this guy up at celebration Orlando and always thought he would look cool sitting on a mountain peak. Loder peak, east of canmore in the Canadian Rockies. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

That is awesome! It looks great and helps with the cost. Those real frames are getting harder and harder to find and more expensive. I've been working on up grading my pack and have gone through a few aluminum pipes trying to do the same with hot sand. Hasn't worked that well for me. I'll definitely give this technique a try. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

That is such a cool idea! Really nice work on the build. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I made mine... It's a 3" pvc pipe 6.25" long, with .6cm / 15/64" wood dowels. Then covered with black felt. I drilled the dowels then cut them at 45 to size. I couldn't find any good pics of the original filter, so the caps are inset and I added a cover of a firefighter voice amp as a detail. Using hot glue it was easy, done in a day, and nice n cheap! Hope it helps. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
