Proton Packs • Re: H00lig4n's Spirit Full Size Pack Build

Full on cycltoron upgrage. I got the cycltron from Tacobelli's Etsy shop. The bumper stock from A2threeD Etsy.

Taking the plunge and cutting into the cyclotron. Much more difficult that the HGA. Looking back, I wish I had a flush cut saw or a diamond cutter wheel for my rotary tool.



Once I fought my way around, I had a pretty gnarly lip to sand down and smooth. I suggest leaving just a bit around the top or bottom to help wit gasket alignment.



Once I was happy, I used JB Plastic Weld to mount the gasket in place. I'm getting better with this stuff and try to make it look like actual welds.



Installing the lenses that i got from here.



Test fitting.



And the final product!



The installation was no joke. It wasn't crazy hard, but it was def not super easy either. Again I think having those tools would've helped a ton. Also, for the M3 screws to mount it to the shell, make sure you don't use the capheads. I tried those and they were a HUGE pain. I switched out to some actual countersunk machine screws and they make a nice easy turn and tighten up well.
