bscheff[501st] Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 That's a gorgeous pack. Mind sharing where you sourced all the parts? Especially the toilet cistern thingy. Link to comment
Darth Emphatic[CMD-DWM] Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 A nice parts list could probably help a lot of people out. Do you have pics of the individual pieces. Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Yeah, I wouldn't mind a parts list and purchase place. The cistern as been eluding me, and I need to rebuild mine pretty bad. -iz Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Guess what came in the mail today Already got to work for the lid debut this sunday at Diseyland Link to comment
defiance7x13[TX] Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 dang man, at this rate do you think you will be done by legoland SW weekend? It would be really bad ass to have more Spec Ops there... Especially since they are allowing EU guys to come out and play this time aroundl... Link to comment

The suit will be 100% ready to go for it but..... I got a graduation to go to in Las Vegas on monday with the party the Saturday prior. so I won't be able to make it. believe me I would like nothing more than to be at Legaoland sporting me Nova Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 All rght, I will be debuting my Nova at Legoland after all. Here's some pics of the finished helmet. I'll have more pics of the full suit up by tomorrow when everything should be finished for approval. I'll also be posting more pics of the leg trimming and such once everything is complete and I have a moment to take a breath Link to comment
Darth Agnon[501st] Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Wow, that helmet looks killer. Nice work to you and Baron. Link to comment
defiance7x13[TX] Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I like the padding inside, that looks nice! Link to comment
Darth Emphatic[CMD-DWM] Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 That one pic reminds me of mine, lol Link to comment
bscheff[501st] Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 So Ac, you gonna share your backpack parts list with us, or is that on double secret lock down? Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 So Ac, you gonna share your backpack parts list with us, or is that on double secret lock down? Don't worry brother soon as I have a spare minute I'll compile a list of where some of the parts can be found. I got the pack kit from Dirty Boy on MEPD but I'm sure buying the parts individually would be way cheaper so I'll see if I can get a list for everyone here in SpecOps Link to comment
bscheff[501st] Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 You're the man Ac. Well, west of the Mississippi anyway. Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 New PIcs up from Legoland. Decided I need to trim/shorten the chest and backplate. Also need to reinforce the right stirrup as it popped just an hour into the troop as well as tighten the thigh straps just a picnch. They started riding low later in the day. And I promise once I get a minute to start cataloguing the pack parts Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 All right here's the list of the parts I've figured out. (2) hammond 1591 ABS plastic boxes just google "hammond 1591" and a bunch of boxes will come up (2) wet ones wet wipes bottles top center and under Cistern (1) "faucet guard" from Home Depot/Lowes Bottom piece housing "stinger" (1) shaped wood bock with pvc pipe "stinger" (2) tupperware tops? over the wet wipe bottles (4) perma nest trays from www.grower-supply.com I still couldn't find the exact cistern used but this might be a really good alternative http://www.toiletspares.co.uk/macdee_derwent_25.html# or this if it's round, can't tell by the picture http://www.ukhps.co.uk/products/Opella-9-1%7B47%7D2-Inch-Cistern-Siphon.html Best I can do guys, pretty sure the other parts ie: radar dish and radio face are direct ordered from someone on MEPD Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Here's a decent "radar dish" too http://compare.ebay.com/like/300542432112?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&_lwgsi=y Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Here's the link for the cistern http://www.501st.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=59878 Link to comment

ELP[501st] Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 ACJay - Loved looking at your build in progress and that parts list is Great - Thanks! And the Polish Helmet looks Fantastic! Great to see another quality maker for us who prefer the Black Plastics. And Iz don't worry about the "West of the Mississipi" comment as I'm pretty sure you and the Ego have got everything else locked up ... And as Liam would say "Hey, that's good sharing." .

bscheff[501st] Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Actually, I have the east side all locked up Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 It's okay, I'm pretty generous and let others live inside my universe sized ego-sphere! -iz Link to comment
