  1. Ok...to begin with this is the “kit” from Crook Knight of Pack #3. Let’s open her up and see what’s what [emoji1] Quick inventory... PVC pipe and joints for frame; abs strips for the braces... Backpack straps... Seed trays; very strong and look to be vaccu-formed... Brexton box and lid... Exhaust port: nice 3D print... Shires siphon: I must say that this is quite impressive, it looks to be cast, but the quality of this piece is awesome. The “mushroom” cap appears also to be vaccu-formed of good quality plastic... Top, center bottle and cap... Mortar tube end-caps and radar dish; looks to be a nice 3D print. Thermal detonator and “lab” pipe... Canteen; again a very good quality 3D print. Also comes with the “Stinger”... Radio: resin cast front also comes with all the switch greebles and stickers, although looking at the cast, I might try and fill in the casted letters. Also if anyone has information on functional slide switches, please let me know. I am really wanting to make this a “working” radio. I’ll need to go out and pick up some 2” pipe for the mortar tube as well as some zip ties to go around the siphon. I also plan on fabricating the red lumbar supports as well. I am more than likely going to “over-build” this thing like I did my ATA kit (read mil-spec) since I troop...a lot...and any and all advice will be much appreciated!

  2. So...another Big Brown Box has arrived and brought up to my barracks room!
  3. Thank you for the quick reply! Is it only on the “lower” part of the pack frame, and not the “upper” part? Dan TD-15169
  4. Hello, Question that is driving me crazy, and if I missed it on the forum my apologies. On the “Move along” or #3 pack, is the red canvas fabric present for the back and lower lumber support? I’m about to put together one of Crook Knights field packs and was curious. Dan TD-15169
  5. Patrol #29 06Apr19 Make-a-Wish Foundation Got to participate in making a wish come true for Dominic, a five year old who just recently became blind due to a brain tumor, who, today became a full fledged Jedi, with help from Rey, and other fellow Jedi! He even was able to “Force-influence” some hapless Sandtrooper that “these aren’t the Jedi we’re looking for: Move along, move along...” [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] His laughter was moving and I’m glad I’m behind a mask... On a brighter note: I’ve heard the ladies can’t resist us sandies [emoji848] Kylo better watch out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  23. Ok...it was driving me crazy since you all graciously pointed out the barrel end! Fixed and added the internal “cooling fins” (Provided by Inland Empire Armory[emoji6]) and while I was at it, I made a butt-plate and engraved my TD ID on it too! Again, thanks for pointing that out!
