  1. I am sorry I didn't know that it wasn't appropriate to post it here. If advised I will remove my comments.
     
    Also, I never stated mine was perfect, the other one sold for 1800 had a piece broken off the band selector, missing port on the side, unusable battery pack, faded logo and usemarks all around. You can still see under sold on ebay.
    Not a huge deal.
    There is a sales area in the forum under " supply depot ". Great place to showcase items for sale. You can introduce yourself, show off pictures, do a sales pitch..
    I think there is a tread about your radio there already. It is at the top of the list.
    Best of luck.

  2. 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!

  3. 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..

  4. 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.

  5. 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.
