stuntmanmike Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Ok guys I got some work done on my pack this week. Got the parts from Dirtyboy. Hoping I'm doing ok for my first pack build, already got a few dings here and there so still got a bit to do. Any good ideas on how the mortar tube attachs? It may not meet deployment but will still get the job done I think. I'm all about input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconoclasta_88 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 That pack is looking really good! I attached my mortar tube to the frame using long screws. Just drill a hole on top and bottom end, slide the screw from inside out of the tube, glue the screws to the tube, drill holes in the frame and add the nots. Not difficult at all. You could also use plastic fasteners... Saludos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyBoy Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Looks great man...don't forget to add the black tape to the lower box. I think your doing awesome. I usually use wire ties to attach the tube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually use wire ties to attach the tube Yeah I just have to figure out how to get the strips on there since everything is pretty much attached Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyBoy Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 with the ribs on the trays it should give you just enough room to slide the tape under what you have fastened down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm...pouches, canvas straps, orange pauldron, ANH E-11 stuff like that. I have a C3 9.0 Vader I just got on a trade, just waiting to make sure he got my rifle before I part with it.

Gordonator Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 u can just use zip ties for the rings on the syphon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyBoy Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 canvas straps? Use the white waistband elastic....its screen accurate, less expensive and much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iconoclasta_88 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 That helmet is starting to look really good bro. Just be careful to avoid the brushed textures. Keep us posted on your progress. Saludos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
