Hey folks. I've currently got some standard white SMC elbows on my pack which I'd like to modify to look more accurate to the (impossible to find) Legris elbows from the original movie packs. Obviously, I can paint them grey easily enough, but in particular I would like to modify the push-fit end to remove the retainer/release tab, and put in a brass tube.
I see that some people have done this in other threads, though most of the threads are old and sadly the images aren't available.
I was wondering if someone had/would be able to write a short guide on the steps (what to remove, etc) along with parts needed (diameter of brass tubes etc)?
Seems like something that should be fairly easy to accomplish but I don't want to just start pulling them to bits and potentially damage them in a way that can't be repaired.
