Detonator Help

[Tall_Trooper[TK]]

Hello There!
I would like to customize my detonator (level 2/3). In my opinion the plate is clearly too high. But I'm not so sure what to do. I'll probably have to shorten the clips. But then I would have to drill new holes. Does it make sense to build a new TD?

 

This is roughly what it looks like when I wear it

thanks in advance

Hi Torben,

 

What comes to my mind as a solution for your TD to actually get  the Basic  (L2 and  L3 accuracy) would be a 3 steps fix.

 

CRL Basic Level : The white control panel raised ribbed pad faces the rear, with the controls/round washer style detail closest to the right end cap.

 

1-  Remove the Buttons plate 

2- Trim the Clips (Drill new holes on metal)  and rotate the pvc pipe downwards so you don't need to drill new holes on it.

3- Place the Buttons panel on the correct position

 

 

 

Some references on how the TD would look when wearing it.

You could also just re-bend the clips (if the material allows) or even make new clips and use the existing holes, this will also save removing the control plate. 

 

The height and length of the clips dictates where the control panel will sit on the wearer.

I had the same problem. I ended up cutting the tips off and drilling two new holes. It didn't take as long as I expected and now the "donut" faces outward instead of upward

This is what the detonator looks like now.
All that's missing are the screws
