TD257 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 This was built from the tutorial at Studio Creations with a few modifications. http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/710/weatheredpack.jpg The pvc tube I initially used was proving to be too heavy, then TK412 recommended the "Alvin Ice" tubes. They are a fraction of the weight of pvc, however not cheap...about 15 bones. They can be found at drafting supply stores and art supply stores.

TD257 Posted May 31, 2004 Author Share Posted May 31, 2004 Here's the link: http://www.studiocreations.com/howto/st ... index.html I did a few things different like substituting the recipe card boxes with project boxes from Radio Shack, adding a flashing red LED, and figuring out a different way to mount the tube.

abntroop Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 yeah, I found the recip boxes to be a little too flimsy. I think it ends up being a toss up versus light and flimsy, and heavy enough to withstand the rigors of trooping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
