Oh, yeah?!?!

Well, I for one will NOT be satisfied until I see a picture of the real Carl Gleba, sporting the whole Juicer get-up in his skivvies.

Oh, wait........

16 Blessed art Thou above all others, O COALITION STATES, beloved of Kevin;

17 For Thou art allowed to do Evil without Limit, nor do thy Enemies retaliate.

18 Thy Military be run by Fools and Dotards.

19 Yet thy Nation suffers not. Praise be unto Him that protects thee from all harm!!

nice work sir :mrgreen: particularly impressive harness/mini computer. does the mini computer have any actual functions or is it just buttons and lights? the harness screams to have a pump/res in it (pc watercooling parts?) that actually pumps fluid through the tubes, activated by the mini pc...also, are the guns hand made? they kinda look like wood or something in the pics but its hard to tell.

beautiful work :ok:

Thank you :ok: It won me first place in the rifts/sci-fi category :D

I pretty much built it on a shoe string budget. The mini computer consists of one of those electronic name tags, the buttons are from a calculator all built into a cardboard box and painted black. The wire is just a salvage cell phone charger cut and glued in place.

I thought about some kind of pump or even filling the tubes with some kind of colored water, but I went the easy router. The bio-comp unit is one of those touch closet lights. The harness is two tool belts and I bolted an old CD holder to the closet light to hold the whole thing together. The tubes were one of those oxygen tubes that paramedics use, I got lucky to get that.

A couple of friends built the pistol and rifle for me. The pistol is made all out of plastic. I don't know the name of the plastic or the stuff they used for the grip. I know they had to carve a lot of the pieces and glue them together.

The rifle is wood and PVC.

The armor is just cardboard, Elmer's glue, primer, paint, and clear matting. It was fun to build and has me thinking about what I could do for next year. Right now it depends on what parts I have lying around the house.

i wonder if all the dope in that harness helps him write faster? is it a fair trade off in lifespan to book output?
