Re: Voice

I'm not aware of anything that modulates your voice, but I've not really looked for one either. I use an Aker voice amp from Jim Sauter, same guy who sells the iComm static burst machines. Jim's in my Garrison and a great guy. His products are awesome. I find the voice amp essential for communicatin...

my new Glaive wall mount

Just wanted to share my new Glaive wall mount that I received this week. This mount was designed and built by Kevin Ward of Halon Customs. He’s a Mando Merc and some may remember his booth at All-Con this year, where he had a wide variety of engraved wood and plexiglass items, including saber and ...

Re: Bdgr's Force Pike Build

Not sure how far along you are with the rasp....but I noticed the pvc fitting you are using as the base is not flat...rather it is almost arched. If you have trouble gluing the spikes to the unlevel surface, you might try cutting a groove into the pvc using a dremel. It'll be a little work to do it ...

Re: Bdgr's Force Pike Build

Very nice tutorial Eric. :trsuit: You've got some really good ideas there. I especially like the syringe as a pike tip. For some reason it's hard to find suitable parts that will work as a tip. I'm looking forward to seeing more photos as you approach completion.

Re: Under the Helmet

We use Jim's Aker voice amps....the smaller black ones. They're awesome. I like it because I cam communicate with people (handlers, etc) in a noisy crowd. They are also great for playing Droid Hunt. They are available here: http://www.501st.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26880 http://i889.photobucket.com...

Re: Glaive - Rough Tutorial

Thanks guys. I think the tutorial will be pretty useful to everyone once it's done. While some of the parts I used are either "found items" or no longer available (the grip material), the basic formula can be customized to anyone's needs. The blades can be made out of other materials....th...

Re: Glaive - Rough Tutorial

The glaive is finished. :trsuit: I've updated the link with a some more progress photos. In costume photos will have to wait until All-Con next weekend. Then I will start working on a step-by-step photo tutorial....using the images already available for everyone to see. http://farm6.static.flickr.co...
