trooper96[501st] Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) I bought a really nice set, but didn't want to mess them up and waste them on this project. I made a backup copy with silicone and resin. I just decided to make enough for this blaster since they will be packed with clay. I'll use the originals if I make an all metal blaster in the future.

trooper96[501st] Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Posted March 18, 2017 The trigger guard is a thin part. Perfect in steel but not so much in resin. I am attempting to beef it up by bonding a scrap piece of white armor to it. If that fails, I will form my own guard from 1/8" x 1/2" aluminum. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 1 Quote
trooper96[501st] Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) With the bonding, thickness is a little over 1/8". I like that it retains the shape of the original. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Edited March 18, 2017 by trooper96 1 Quote
