I always use it and everything seems normal post apocalyptic wasteland to me.
I hated the end of New Vegas when I couldn't continue to free roam after I looted all those awesome weapons from the Legion fellas.

It's a "Raise of the Glass" to the older Fallout games, it allows for "random encounters" Such as the Freesides Roaming Gang of Grandmas.
and the Infamous "Holy Hand Grenades" That was in Fallout 2.
There are 14? Random Encounters that you don't see in the original game. The only Reason I don't play Wild Wasteland perk all the time is for the YCS Gauss Rifle... If I make a unarmed or Explosives character i Take that Trait.

Beat the shit out of Deathclaws

Thats one thing I'm very happy they did in New Vegas is make Melee/unarmed MUCH stronger in this game.
I almost Feel like Frank Horrigan, Using paralyzing palm, then Smashing them with "Oh, Baby!" is just amazing feeling.

I like the Fallout games, I just wish they were more difficult. Even with the "hardcore" mode in New Vegas, it still doesn't feel like you are scratching out an existence in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Ammo and food are everywhere, and combat becomes easy once you have gained a few levels.
I too think this way, but remember "the Great War" Wiped out Nearly 90% of the population... and if the Human growth rate stayed the same until 2077, then we'd have enormous population before the nukes fell, also if "pre-fallout America" Stayed the same Retro-1950's, then there would not be NEARLY the "Weapons Control" we see now days, they would of been plentiful EVERY where.. Same with Food, though I wonder how the food doesn't become "unconsumable" but remember that Nuka-Cola Quantum has Isotopes so if during the prelude to the "Resource War" maybe there FDA allowed Nuclear Consumption, making bacteria in the food sterile to grow.
What makes me go "Really?" are all the "Very Easy" Computers, and lock that are still "locked" when there are signs of Human interaction in that area for decades.. Someone would have eventually figured it out.... but when I start thinking to Hard I remember... It's just a game, not reality.

What do you mean physically damaged? And would I sent the tank in?
if you hit it with a hammer, dragged it behind the car, threw it at a tree, etc...
Posted 03 June 2011 - 12:31 PM
Example: Plasma Spaz + Melt Down = fun times
Travel light + Toughness = Fast moving with leather skin.
Slayer + Super Slam(and sometimes paralyzing palm) = Unstoppable Melee attacker
To help with your Characters, you need to "synergize" your perks together for optimal use..
After I complete my "Laser Turtle" I'm going to be Creating a Grenadier. Shotguns and Explosives

haha hasanyone ever made a complete melee guy before? Its awesome haha. Like no gun skills just run around with sledgehammers and pipes lol and kill everyone with 1 or 2 hits haha
I do that after I max a character out. Find the weapons opposed to their skills and have some fun.
Posted 08 June 2011 - 02:45 PM
Funnest Class I've made so far was my "infiltrator" planting C-4 Deep in Camp Golf/The Fort. It's difficult, your Sneak has to be WAYYY up there and you have to be wearing "light Versions" of the Factions armor, usually you can sneak past the front guards pretty easy, just have to worry about turrets and Dogs really... Plant your C4/mines near Busy pathways/Tents/Barracks Sneak away to a safe location and "BOOM!" and if you do this at night you after the Dust Settles you can sneak back into the Factions Tents/Barracks and Start Assassinating everyone with the Mister Sandman Perk... and if you are Caught just sneak away till your [HIDDEN] Again, Set up at a decent "look" point and Either grab a Rocket Laucher or a Grenade Machine Gun and just mortar the town into Splattered piles of meat and bone.

Fallout: New Vegas Legion Unarmed/Praetorian.
Perks: Heavy Handed, Good Natured
*I took Good Natured over the Rest due to I'm only relying on 1 form of Combat, which is unarmed, I will "explore" some Explosions later on I gain much more from good natured then loose anything.
· Strength: 8
· Perception: 5
· Endurance: 6
· Charisma: 1
· Intelligence: 7
· Agility: 7
· Luck: 6
Level 1: Tag! X3 (Unarmed, Barter, Medicine)*I Tag these 3 for the Fact, that you need to get the most out of Stim Packs Early on, Barter to Help Sell your Gear better, and the price of Stims are lower.
Level 2: Intense Training (Strength +1): There are really no good perks for a level 2 Unarmed Character, but adding 1 to Strength will (*Skill Points): Medicine, Unarmed, Barter. Add to your needs. If your Character is getting beat up to Fast, add more to medicine, if you are having trouble Taking down larger "game" add all of them to Unarmed.)
Level 4: Educated: This is a No Brainer. It gives you +2 To your Skill points every time you level. This should be taken before level 10. Due to the fact your losing Skill points, there are really no good perks at level 4 for Melee. (*Skill Points): Unarmed, Lockpick, Science. Unless your going to max out your Unarmed right away, you really need to start dumping more points into "passive" Skills, being just a few points away from unlocking a terminal or lock is just sheer annoying.. especially when your 3 or fewer away from unlocking it.)
Level 6: Bloody mess/Toughness: This is a tough Decision. If you already have Love/Hate spiked Knuckles, Take Toughness This will help when you encounter VERY large "game" such as Cazadors, toughness personally I would Take both "ranks" of Toughness before bloodymess, I would save bloodymess when the +5% Damage will really be noticed(ie: Ballistic Fist) (*Skill Points): Repair, repair, REPRAIR. It's time to start putting some points into this Skill now, your beginning to Actually have a "set up" at this point instead of just wearing something till it breaks. Unless your suicidal.. in which consult a psychologist, or Councilor)
Level 8: Stonewall: Damn do I love Bugs sometimes Stonewall won't give you just +5 DT against Melee/unarmed. Due to a bug in the programming, it will give you +5 DT FOR ALL ATTACKS! Adding this to toughness, even wearing Light Armor your DT will be starting to come close to that of Combat Armor!<you have to be using melee/unarmed to gain this bug> (*Skill points): Unarmed! Make sure you're at 70 before level 12!
Level 10: Nerd Rage!: This perk is a little under rated. For Melee/Unarmed you sometimes get "rushed" and your Health Drops faster then you notice and your Dead before you even know it. This will help you giving you that "3 second buffer" before you die, to apply stims or Eat food/Drink. For me, I will actually purposely wander around at 25% Health for the Fact that this perk will kick in VERY Fast and as long as you have stims hot keyed you can Be a walking Tank. This perk is deffinetly one of the "under rated" perks in the game. ALL Melee/Unarmed should Heavily consider this, especially if your working on a Light Armor Assassin. (*Skill points): Make sure your hovering around 70 before level 12, and Make sure your Repair is around 60ish as well, Jury Rigging is coming Fast.
Level 12: Piercing Strike: High Majority of ALL Enemies in the game have a lower base value of DT 15. This will allow you to basically give you the power of a deathclaw and just smash fools into dust. This is a must for ANY Melee Attacker unless your upsets with Chainsaws or the Thermic Lance. (*Skill points): At this point, you know where your hurting, and where you might be.. "over the top" I would Stop putting Skill points into Unarmed if you're at 75. There is no need to "jack it up" any more. I would suggest Repair, Jury rigging is coming Faster than you think and you need your Repair at 90!
Level 14: Jury Rigging: FINALLY! This is one of my personal favorite perks. It allows you to repair items from Basic garbadge items, you don't know how much money/caps you save from this perk, EVERY character unless your fighting with your bare hands should have this perk. (*Skill points): Right now, you don't need to focus on any "upcoming" perks Slayer will be the next one, and if your already at 75, you can just simply pour all your skill points at level 24 into this perk I'd focus all your points into Speech, Barter, Lockpick, Science at this point.. unless your looking to hybrid your character, in which I wouldn't worry about till much later. Focus on getting the points you need now.
Level 16: Action Boy/Girl, Tag!, Better Criticals: this is where you make Sacrifices.. Do you use VATS a lot? Do you really want to raise a Certain Skill up like Lockpick or Science? Or instead of taking Nerd Rage! Did you take finesse? This is the level to where you really start to show how your playing style.. if your wanting to Score ungodly Criticals then take Better Criticals, a Critical Hit with a Ballistic Fist with a Unarmed Skill of 100, and a strength of 10.. you can damn near Take down Death Claws with one Critical hit with Better Criticals. If you have been neglecting certain Skills such as Barter or Speech or even Sneak(if you choose to be more Stealthy) Tag! will pretty much give you an "extra level" worth of Skill points without leveling. I would only Take Tag! if a VERY important Mission Deals with a certain Skill such as speech and you "really need it". With Action Boy/Girl This is where it gets a little iffy for me. When I use Guns/Energy or Explosives I use VATS a lot of the time, and with Melee/unarmed I barely use it I'd rather just fist fight my Enemy then go into VATS and waste my time, Unless I'm taking on a big enemy in which VATS will actually change the location of where you're fighting and enemies will sometimes completely miss you. It happens more often with Death Claws or enemies that "leap" at you.(*Skill points): Wherever your under 50 that helps your Character. You know what you need. That "Very Hard" Lock annoying you? Getting only 5 Caps for a Anti-Material Rifle? You know where your Character is weak now is the best time to Fix these "problems" and I will no longer advise your skill points.
Level 18: Paralyzing Palm: This is a VATS Attack, Remember that. While Parlyzing Palm is VERY useful you get a 30% chance of paralyzing a target this is EXTREMLY useful when dealing with Death Claws, Cazadors. A 30sec. Knock out is basically signing any ones Death Warrant. ****CAUTION! Remember a paralyzed enemy is not a dead enemy! keep track if its dead or "asleep"****
Level 20: Players Choice: At level 20, there are some new "enticing" perks, but be focused. DO NOT! Waste your precious perk. Explorer is absolute Crap, That should be "an option" at level 8. Not level 20 when majority of the map is already "revealed". Grim Reapers Sprit is extremely water downed from Fallout 3. It only gives back 20 AP. Where 1 Strike from a Ballistic Fist alone is 28 AP This can "prolong" VATS attacks but eventually you'll run out. Unless your Strictly a VATS Character I would advise not getting Grim Reapers Spirit. Solar powered is also another perk that's "enticing" but when it boils down to it, the extra Strength is not needed, and you only get 13HP for waiting 1hr. With Ninja remember the "multiplier" got jacked. Instead of giving you 15% extra it gives you 1.15 which killed this perk If your stacking the Critical % up, Ninja will give you a little "extra" but not worth pouring all the Skill points it requires.. Unless your die hard for this perk, Don't take it. Focus your time on skills that have been over looked, such as Finesse, 2nd Rank for Toughness, Bloody Mess, Tag!, Purifier, Better Criticals, Long Haul, Life Giver, or if your Hybriding your Character look into other perks, such as Explosives Expert etc..
Level 22: Players Choice: Again, There is no level 22 perks that will Help you in combat. As like level 20, just gain a perk you have over looked. Now is a good time to get that 2nd level of toughness, Bloody mess, or Finesse if your concentrating on Critical Hit player.(*Skill points): Remember when I said just keep your Unarmed at 75? Well now Is the time to up your skill points in unarmed to 90! And stop at 90. You will find books, and such to raise your unarmed to 100, don't worry
Level 24: Slayer!: Fucking SLAYER!!! Finally! After much waiting my favorite skill for Melee/Unarmed Characters. This will cause all your attacks to swing 30% Faster, you will notice it right away, if your attacking a Group of enemies, Starting off with a running Legion Assault will most likely kill the first enemy, and your fallow through will be faster, so you can go chuck Norris on there ass and cut them down in no time. *NOTE: This will not lower your AP cost. If it did, you might as well be called "Wasteland God" at this point.
Level 26: Players Choice: Yes Nerves of Steel is Available, but again unless your making almost a "pure" VATS Unarmed Combatant, I would Really look into other skills that you have missed. Nerves of Steel isn't bad, but for my "fighting" style, I rarely use VATS when it comes to close combat.. This is another good time to "rank up" other skills like toughness, Explosives expert. Etc..
Level 28: Players Choice, again: Rad Absorption is again nerfed from Fallout 3. You only "absorb" 6 Rads every 1hr of waiting, this is highly water downed. Making this skill confusing of why it is given at level 28 instead of Boosting Rad Childs effects and offering it at 28 instead. *Note: You should pretty set on what you're doing most Quests are most likely done, your probably already Factioned up, and now it's just time to wander around and Crushing anything in your path.. I won't beat a Dead horse and say "rank up toughness! Durka dur!" Mercy(Grenade Machine Gun) sounds Very enticing right now doesn't it!
Level 30: Pick a perk, any perk! Just remember its your last one!!!!: This is your Last perk you will recive go over your character with a fine tooth comb.. make sure you can take Blows from Death claws and just sit there laughing, Maybe add a perk that you wouldn't normally take like Travel Light or Splash Damage.
You have just completed a Unarmed Character! This is my personal character I use in Vegas(Phelix). I barely use VATS and I think I only use it on Death Claws, and super mutants.
Remember, NOT TO ENGAGE ANY LEGION Until you are given Legion assault.. and be at least "mixed" with the NCR for Ranger Take down, and play nice with the Khans so that you can gain "Khan Trick" using a Ballistic Fist with Khan Trick is just pure awesome ness, its like Throwing a shotgun round at full speed!
Recommended implants right away:
Strength Implant. Your Strength will now be at 10! If you fallow my SPECIAL (Hells yeah!)
NEMEAN Sub-Dermal Armor: ads +4 to DT. With Stonewall, Both toughness ranks, your character will rock a +15DT WITH NO ARMOR!
Wearing a Vault 34 Security Armor, your Character will have a Base DT of 31! That's equivilant to Wearing a Full Suit of Remnants power armor! But you will fly around much faster in light Armor then Heavy making any and ALL +DT additives a "must goal" for any melee/unarmed attacker. Wearing a Full Suit of Remnants Armor will cause you to have a +51 DT! That is absolutely insane. You can literally laugh as bullets just bounce right off you!! **REMEMBER KIDDIES!** Death Claws Ignore ALL DT! So don't get all suited up in power armor when your Facing these fucking Chameleons! That's Why I enjoy Wearing Legion Centurion(18 DT) giving me 30+DT. When Wearing something outside 1st recon Beret.
Phelix Level 30(perks are already shown, and "telling" my Skills is redundant, I'm only Shy of a few "maxed" out Skills.)
Helmet/Hat: 1st Recon Beret
Glasses: Lucky Shades
Armor: Factionless: Vault 34 Security Armor (Soon will be Assassin Suit)
Faction: Legion Centurion
OH SHIT! Moment!: Remnants Power Armor
Weapon(s): Ballistic Fist
Paladin Toaster
Hold out Weapon: Love & Hate
Followers: Rex & Lilly
I will Add many more Characters later! Any questions PM me!
Posted 12 June 2011 - 11:22 AM
Fallout New Vegas: Mercenary/Assassin
Faction: Mr. House/Wild Card
Traits: Fast Shot, Small Frame.__________________________________________
Unlike my last Build Im going to Dive right into this one, This Character works either alone or with Boone(keep him passive) and ED-E or if youre looking to use stealth boys Lilly(+200% Stealth Boy duration). This Character also works best at night where there is smaller chance of detection.
A: 8(Small frame +1, Agility implant to make 10)
Luck: 6Level 1(Tag! x3): Guns, Sneak, Repair
Level 2: Rapid Reload
Level 4: Educated or Comprehension
Level 6: Hand Loader or Travel Light(if you hate walking)
Level 8: Quick Draw or commando(if your VATS player, Id Take quick Draw first, due to it will Help you Sneak around the map a lot easier, have your Weapon holstered and sneaking around and when you spot someone, you can get the Drop on them much easier)
Level 10: Finesse or Math Wrath
Level 12: Silent Running (if you are open Sight sniper) or Sniper(for VATS style Sniper) Though for This sort of build Silent Running has much more effectiveness then Sniper does.
Level 14: Jury Rigging
Level 16: Better Criticals
Level 18: Tag!(if you want to boost a skill) or Action Boy/Girl(*Remember*): Action boy only gives 10, not 15, so only take this perk if youre a few points shy of taking that next shot with the Sniper rifle, or Anti-Material Rifle.)
Level 20: Grim Reapers Spirit(if youre a VATS Style player) or Weapon Handling if your using the Anti-Material Rifle(plus remember to get the Strength implant to raise your Strength to 8)
Level 22: Sniper, Finesse, Math Wrath, Silent Running, Grim Reapers Spirit, Weapons Handling, Action Boy, Tag!, Toughness, Light Step, Commando, Quick Draw, Shotgun Surgeon(**Riot Shotgun/Dinner Bell should be available, This will tremendously Help you if someone sneaks up on you or you are getting over ran**)
Level 24: Sniper, Finesse, Math Wrath, Silent Running, Grim Reapers Spirit, Weapons Handling, Action Boy, Tag!, Toughness, Light Step, Commando, Quick Draw, Shotgun Surgeon*, Travel Light
Level 26: Nerves of Steel(it will help you Regain AP much faster for when you need to take down multiple targets down in a short Time frame, or you can start your sniping with VATS, and then when your AP is drained, you can switch to open Sight and wait for your AP to Replenish and Start another Series of Sniping) This combo works Really Well with Grim Reapers Spirit and the Sniper rifle(suppressed) since it only Costs 27 AP, and if you can get 1 hit kills you can silence many Targets before they even know where to look. With the Gobi only using 24, using This Rifle from Far away, you can VATS attack much larger targets, and when its drained continue to put down fire till your AP is Replenished and keep Cycling through these motions till Targets are Eliminated.
Level 28: Sniper, Finesse, Math Wrath, Silent Running, Grim Reapers Spirit, Weapons Handling, Action Boy, Tag!, Toughness, Light Step, Commando, Quick Draw, Shotgun Surgeon*, Travel Light
Level 30: Sniper, Finesse, Math Wrath, Silent Running, Grim Reapers Spirit, Weapons Handling, Action Boy, Tag!, Toughness, Light Step, Commando, Quick Draw, Shotgun Surgeon*, Travel Light
This Character is highly effective if you have patience and do volleys of Shots, and Sneak away and Hide, then return to put down more Firepower. Also, keep in mind that youre going to want to stay as light as possible, you will move much faster if your under 100lbs(with 10 points in Agility, and Travel Light you can run around Really fast). Only keep your Primary Sniper Rifle on you and 1 other Close Quarters firearm such as the Riot Shotgun, Light Machine Gun, All-American, This Machine, 12.7mm Submachine gun.
*: if you dont plan on carrying a shotgun, then do not take shotgun surgeon thats a no brainer.
What to wear!
Armor: Assassin Suit (if available) or Chinese Stealth Suit. Remember that Recon Armor is a Medium Armor, and it will slow you down a bit.
Glasses: Lucky Shades
Hat/Helmet: 1st Recon Beret(you can wear this with the Chinese Stealth Suit)
Weapons: Anti-Material Rifle(Death Claw/Super Mutant hunting, have your followers Carry this until you need it to save weight), fully upgraded Sniper rifle(This is always an awesome Choice), Gobi Sniper rifle(this is a toss-up, if you want more damage but less stealth use this weapon) Riot Shotgun, Light Machine gun(This is best used for lightly Armored enemies, good for Urban combat, not so great for open Assaulting , This Machine(Uses .308 so for hardcore mode this teams up well with Sniper rifle) 12.7mm Submachine gun(much better choice then the light machine gun, for obvious reasons, you can put a silencer on it!) All-American.
What my Character uses Desert Fox is just the Silenced 12.7mm Submachine gun, and a fully upgraded Sniper Rifle, and I have Boone Carry My Anti-Material Rifle(He carries one for me and him, but I set his attacking to passive so he is not shooting at the first thing he sees)
Ending notes.
This Character is a lot of fun to roam around with, if you want to take a break from slashing and smashing style of play. It is difficult at the start, and you may want to quit with this character soon, but just be patient. It gets extremely fun to harass NCR/Legion/Fiend troops with. Once get around Level 18+ you really start to see this Character shine when you got a High powered sniper rifle, and a really good urban weapon. You can go anywhere and do anything without a peep.

Posted 20 June 2011 - 09:07 AM
But wearing the Assassin Suit with the Ranger Combat Helmet carrying either the 12.7mm Submachine gun, or the Assault Carbine makes you look like one of the "Commandos" from the first Resident Evil.
Posted 20 June 2011 - 02:35 PM
Posted 22 June 2011 - 01:32 PM
And with honest Hearts, you get one of the best perks "Grunt" which for whenever I make a "gun" class player my primary weapon for everything is the All-American. Also, Tribal wisdom isn't too bad either and if you have 100% completed "Aba daba honymoon" quest fully you should already have the 70 Survival skill needed.
Edit: The "high tech Assassin suit" in old world blue will be much like the Medic Power Armor in Fallout 3, but instead of Med-X it will distribute Stim packs.

Obsidian needs to gtfo with fallout games. They really destroyed nv.
They were under a very very strict time deadline.
There was suppose to be a Legion town you could visit, to kind of show the player what Vegas would really look at if The Legion took the Dam. It wasn't built into a giant army with slaves but it had real people doing normal shit.

Posted 31 January 2013 - 10:58 AM
I know the Khans were suppose to have a bigger role, the Powder Gangers were pieced together, Legion had much more back story and interaction, The Brotherhood of Steel was suppose to have more of an impact at the end of the game.
plus they designed and located all the NCR first is why their presence looks so fast while The Legion looked so tiny, when in Fact when the battle at the Dam broke out Lanius had I think 6 Cohorts under his Command, that would of been a sizable force. I think the Canon version had 2200 NCE and 2050 or 2250 Legion can't remember. Thats like a small city all of a sudden breaking out into chaos over a tiny strip of land. Things would of been much more chaotic then the game lead on to.

You'll want to take that word "bunny" off your detail image. You are not allowed to add anything to the thumbnail and that will cause you to get rejection... sometimes the rejections come slowly on the weekends, so it would be better to resubmit now before you lose a bunch of votes.
Nice job on the shirt though.
Re: DOWN WITH THE BUNNY
I love the idea, but I feel like the the tortoise sets a standard of detail that the bunny doesn't reach, if that makes sense. I think it would do much better if you re-subbed it with a more detailed bunny. That's my 2 cents anyway. Good job!

3+ years of too many turbunguins, not to mention past associations, can skew some folks to be more critical of the designs.
I'm seeing the change, and that also means putting the past behind. When the quality and details are there, the votes are warranted.

Ok last month before thanksgiving APEX ran a special. one of the items they had were surplus east german ziess DF 7 x40 binoculars. some call them border guard or checkpoint charlie binoculars. they are neither those descriptions are come ons. I have two sets, one set I bought in 1995 and this set.
I am going to review them here, first off the sets I have are marked NVA or national Volks armie, Stasi ones are marked Mdi
these are real zeiss binoculars, poor Ziess got caught behind the Wall, while the comapnyalso managed to operate in West Germany as Hensoldt
these Binoculars are covered in rubber with caps that are attached so you never loose them, they are well made and serial numbered
the set I received from Apex came complete with no broken or worn parts, even the filtered lenses where in the cover, like new. when they came they were dirty but again complete nothing a little soap and water with a paint brush could not cure. I used windex and lense cloth to clean the lenses, I already had the only other accessories that was the lighting unit for the reticile. For these low light binoculars, the reticile is illuminated by a special bulb and battery pack, I had a few these units from my orignal set ( see pic attached) these Bonoculars were used right up to the wall coming down. but Ziess updated this version 1980's called the EDF which had a tritium unit to light up the reticile, these have since burned out by now
so for $ 89 plus shipping I have a second set. these Ziess Binoculars are heavy, but fantastic for early dawn and late evening deer/hog hunting
I hope Apex has another sale on these cause they are no longer listed for sale period! because my only regrete was not getting more

Value Size—4-month supply of turmeric vitamins!
Features a high concentration of powerful antioxidant curcuminoids
Free radical protection for digestive system health
Tonic for the liver and gastrointestinal system
Help support your liver and digestive system with Swanson Turmeric vitamins! Traditionally used in cooking as a curry spice, herbalists use turmeric as a liver tonic and gastrointestinal system soother. The key to turmeric's benefits appear to be its high concentration of natural compounds known as curcuminoids, which possess powerful antioxidant capabilities.
Q: How much curcumin is present in this product?
A: With full-spectrum herbs, we do not specify a particular amount of curcumin or assay for it. Curcumin will be present as a component of turmeric, but concentration will vary in each batch with variations in growing conditions, time of harvest and other similar issues.
Q: I've heard that turmeric is not easily absorbed in the intestine. Is there any way I can improve absorption for greater benefit?
A: Absorption of turmeric can be improved by taking it with Bioperine, a black pepper complex, which enhances nutrient absorption.
Q: My digestive system is very sensitive. Is there any form of turmeric that would be more easily tolerated in the digestive system?
A: Try Kyoto Fermented Turmeric.

After months of research and pain, I think I found a cheap fg helmet thats in my price range . These helmets look amazing. I was wondering how accurate these really are. Does anybody have one? Im new to fett costuming so excuse my ignorance.
After months of research and pain, I think I found a cheap fg helmet thats in my price range . These helmets look amazing. I was wondering how accurate these really are. Does anybody have one? Im new to fett costuming so excuse my ignorance.
Well since noone has a Lucas film Boba Fett helmet accuracy is fleeting, but He does have the wavy brow and the uneven mandibles, I have seen noone else do this. As far as size goes, photo's can be enlarged and a reference to something for scale in the same picture that can be positivly I'D. and its size determinded -such as the cheek mole- can be measured to get an exact measurment of the helmet using a plotter.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think BM used something similiar to this technique.
I am also talking to MS about his helmets, they seem very nice. If you have any info on his it would be greatly appreciated. (you'll have to excuse my ignorance)
I would go with BobaMaker if you are doing an ESB helmet and Marrow Sun if you are going to do a RotJ helmet. The RotJ helmet doesn't have the wavy brow.
I'm purchasing one of Bobamakers helmets for my movie. Everything else I've had from him has been excellent and I highly recommend his products.
Is that the only difference between esb and rotj?
Last edited by loserkid; Mar 26, 2005 at 5:11 PM.
I believe the dents in the helmet are shaped differently, and the ESB helmet had a little more flare to it, too. But I think I've read some differing of opinions on that last statement.
From what I've read, both helmets (actually all the helmets back to pre-pro) are not as different as we have made them out to be.
Well, there are SO may options...I think what will happen is you'll get your First helmet,not like something about it, and then constantly upgrade to the next best thing...
Me Personally I have been through a DP 97, 3 MS Helmets (thanks Marrow), and JUST IN TODAY I GOT MY MS2 Helmet ...ALL Great Helmets
So point being it's never ending.
But if you've yet to paint any helmet before and this is your first time, then start with a DP Helmet and practice the painting. You would hate to purchase a nice /expensive helmet and then put a Less than stellur paint job on because you made first timer mistakes..
Good Luck. and take your time.
I was hoping i could ask someone here to paint it for me, but that will probably be expensive. All this stuff keeps adding up, and I have to learn all these new skills. I guess thats whats fun about it though. This is all so daunting. The one big thing im afraid about is the size of the helmet. I don't know if the $160 helmet that I'm going to buy will look right on me.
I would order one of BobaMakers helmets tommorow ( or should that be today as its 3:35 ) if I had a bigger head... the marrow Sun helmets look really good too.
.. Turns out that Boba Maker's fantastic helmet is not too big for me woo hoo !!

That is correct. I have shown pictures that show the ESB helmet looking more narrow than the ROTJ and vice-versa. There are many factors that alter the appearance of the helmet's shape, i.e. the crooked mandible on the ROT, but all the helmets came from the same place.Jango_Fett_Jr said:
Additionally, the dents on all the helmets are the same. Only the ROTJ helmet has a little extra damage dremmeled around one edge that creates a small gouge.But it is the same dent that is on the Empire and Prepro helmets.
I wonder why one helmet was crooked, and why they decided to use it? Was it because the paint job was so good you think? and they didnt have the time for him to paint another one?
OR was the guy making helmets crosseyed? casue the original vader helmet is really crooked to.
Keep in mind, only so much is visible on screen. All the minor asymmetries aren't even noticeable on screen. Also, it is pretty difficult to make them perfect (though I think all the asymmetrical details make it all the more unique). Heck, it wasn't until Episode III that ILM was able to make a perfectly symmetrical helmet using machinery.
Ya they just fliped the design for a mirror image. I agree that having a warped helmet adds to the greatness of it all, I just always wondered how it got that crooked, then on the 2 earlier Fett helmets there is no warp.
It's most likely due to the way the visor was installed. The real helmets are asymmetrical and just very nasty all around.
The Jedi helmet was painted at the same time as the Prepro 2 helmet and another Prepro 2 style helmet prior to the filming of ESB. So, time was not a factor. I think they just grabbed a helmet and went with it.
Besides, it's not until the excellent tour photos that we've even been able to tell that the mandible is crooked. As JFJ said, film hides TONS of imperfections!

I take it back, Cal was right!
I knew it I! Joe was crosseyed! and He is adding paint topicaly!!?? Hmmm never noticed that before, or is He sanding?
MY suspicions have been confirmed...and I am sure you have all heard about the infamous "10 foot rule..."
Great pic Graeme!!!
hahahaha looks very funny
My Bobamaker helmet arrived today and it's the best thing since sliced bread! Better even!!! My compliments to Bobamaker himself and a recommendation for everyone... BUY BOBAMAKER, for all your Bounty Hunting needs! 8)
I've gotten most of my stuff from BM, his work is amazing. I have all his FG armour, and a couple of soft parts too. I highly recommend his work!
Part-Time Legend, Full-Time Hero
This is an old thread but a good one...I'm in the process of getting a BM helmet (painted by BM himself). I can't wait...whew hoo!

the easiest way to post a pic on any website or forum.
step 1: photobucket.com and create a free account
step2: upload pictures onto photo bucket account
step 3: scroll your cursor (your pointer) over the picture and down comes a list of options, the very bottom is an IMG Code, copy and paste the IMG code into the thread or reply on duckchat
click enter on your reply or thread and there's the pics!
!!!! make sure you get the whole code, one letter or sign missed and it wont work!!!!!!!!
thanks and enjoy hope this helps. photobucket.com also lets you save tons of picture which gets them off your memory of your computer so your killing two birds with one stone.
hope this helps and pm me or reply with any questions regarding it.

Matthew Stafford and Mikel Leshoure are expected to play Sunday versus the Minnesota Vikings, but only one of them is a sure thing. That's Stafford, who entered the week with a hip injury but practiced on Thursday and Friday and didn't look to be hindered at all, according to beat writers.
Leshoure was on the practice field for each of the three sessions this week, but he was limited each day because of a sore groin muscle. He is officially questionable for the game.
Fantasy Analysis:
The only reason why Stafford concerns me is the fact that he hasn't thrown more than one touchdown pass in any game this year. However, the Vikings' pass defense is very average, and Stafford remains a rock-solid QB1. That's not to say he is a must-start. If you have someone such as Matt Ryan or RGIII, I would use either over Stafford.
Again, Leshoure is expected to give it a go, but you just knew he was going to get dinged up after getting a monster workload in his first football game in more than a year and a half. I think Leshoure is still an RB2 because he's probably going to get 16-20 touches, but I expect both Joique Bell and Kevin Smith to be involved this week.

Difficulty:: Very Easy
Mod Base:: AOSP
Mod Status:: Stable
Apply In:: CWM Recovery
Requires Root:: Yes
Here is a package I personally put together for myself, figured others may want this. I also wanted to get the attention of ROM Devs so maybe they will incorporate these versions into their build if bundled or recommend these to be flashed with their ROMs .
I noticed all of the existing GApps packages floating around all used the leaked 4.1 GApps and not the updated ones from the official 4.1.1 Image from Google. So I compiled a new zip that has the exact file structure as the 7-26 Goo.im (CM Promoted) gapps package but used all files from the official 4.1.2 JZO54K release.
Archived original OP on 8/31 to post #3 -If anyone wants to read more on original ranting that made me create these packages in further detail.
There are two GApps pacakges available, use one or the other, both include all needed gapps and services that are required to run Google software....only one small difference - Camera and Gallery app.
Both Include: Calendar Sync, Bookmarks Sync, Face Detection, News & Weather, Google Backup/Restore, Contacts Sync, Sound Search, GoogleTTS, Google Now w/English Installed, Play Store, Talk, Voice Search
Pick one only, use the explanations of each below to determine which version is best for you. These should be compatible with any JB based rom.
gapps-jb-20121012-JZO54K-Formula84 | This version is for users that want to keep the Roms custom camera options (Power Shutter, ISO changes, etc.) only issue is that this has a trade off, you wil not be able to use Google Picture Sync.
gapps-addon-JZO54K-Picasa-Sync | This is an addon for users that want to use Google Picture Sync and get the experience Google intended.
Note: Some Factory Shipped GApps have not been inlcuded due to newer versions being available on the Play Store for download. Also available via Addon zips -See this post for explanation of addon zips or Click on the name/links to take you to installs for each (GMail, Youtube, Maps / street view, Google +, Music, etc.)
Recent Changelog:
10/12: See this post
9/29: See this post
9/19: Updated stand-alone wallet zip to 9/5/12 Version.
8/31: Updated to JRO03O build, Reorganized OP for a simpler explanation.
Full Changelog: See Post #3 for Details
*** LiquidJB-GApps folder is for Liquid ROM only, (Liquid Users See this Post for more info)
Primary - New 10/12 Files Available!
Goo.im Link -Donate to Goo.im at least once if you can
Secondary - Only 8/31 Files for now below
MediaFire Link to Folder
Google Drive Link to Folder
Box.net Link to Folder
Installation Tip:
I have only tested these with installing in the same recovery session as the Rom. Not sure if that matters or not, but I have been doing that since the Nexus S GApps Wallet issues back in the day. Thats how I would recommend this be installed.
Google Wallet Installation:
Only thing I can see people having issues with on Play Store may be Google Wallet. I know that when you search on PC not even signed in Wallet does not come up in results, its almost Like Google is Hiding it. So here is the link I used to install it properly, also had another Liquid user test in IRC successfully.
From you phone click this link, https://play.google....letnfcrel&hl=en, if asked which to open with use Play Store...You should be directed to the Wallet App and have the option to install.
Alternate Google Wallet Install:
I have made a flashable install for the latest 9/5/12 wallet since it seems to be a mixed bag of results using the link.
The link worked for me prior then after my phone got wiped and I setup from scratch I found the link did not work for me either.
So anyone that wants wallet check out the "Addon Pacakges" folder in the JZO54K Gapps folder from any of the links in the OP.
Edit: Oh and forgot to say if you found this useful don't forget to grow my internet-peter-meter by hitting "Like" - also some people respond to this topic so it doesn't get buried in the multitude of Rom threads

Hey Everyone, I'm new here on the forum, actually have my order for a PBP hatch due to come in next week on the 4th. I'm taking all season tires along to be switched out before I leave the lot, so I'm looking to sell the stock Dunlop Sport SP-01s (235/45 R17).
I'm Asking $500 for the set, as it looks like a set of brand new is over $900 on Tirerack. The tires should have literally <5 miles on them, and of course I'll be glad to confirm with pictures and everything when I take delivery of the car. If anyone has interest at this price, let me know, otherwise I'll probably just take the dealer's lowball offer just to have them off my hands. Thanks.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida State topped the Tar Heels in two games on Sunday, taking the series 2-1 as UNC dropped to 22-12 (4-2) on the season. FSU won today's first game 9-1 and game two 5-4.
Kristen Brown led UNC with two hits and an RBI on Sunday, while Haleigh Dickey added a pair of hits, and Lori Spingola tossed her fifth game with 10 strikeouts this season.
After taking a close 5-4 game one of the series on Saturday, the Tar Heels fell by the run-rule in game two on Sunday, 9-1. The Seminoles had three homers and nine hits to top Carolina's single hit.
UNC struck first in the second, as Amber Parrish led off the game with a walk. Aquilla Mateen advanced to second on a wild pitch and to third on a passed ball while pinch running before scoring on Kristen Brown's fielder's choice.
The Noles answered with five in the bottom half of the second. Morgan Bullock led off with a single up the middle and advanced to second as Macey Cheatham reached on an error. Kaitlin Allen walked to load the bases, and Victoria East's fielder's choice kept the bases loaded as Cheatham was called out on the play. Courtney Senas smacked a triple to right, scoring all three FSU runners before Kelly Hensley homered out center for another two runs on the board.
Both teams were held scoreless in the third and fourth before Florida State added four final runs in the fifth. Erika Hoffner led off with a bunt single, advancing to second on a single to left by Cheatham. Both runners advanced a base on a wild pitch before Celeste Gomez hit FSU's second homer to center to add three runs. Senas hit the Noles third homer of the game, a solo shot to left, to end the game.
Ashley Bone took the loss, pitching 1.2 innings while giving up three hits, three walks and striking out one. Lauren Fuller pitched 2.2 innings, giving up six hits and two walks.
Scoreless through the first two innings, Florida State struck first in game three. Allen and Senas each drew a walk, and both runners advanced a base on a passed ball to get in scoring position. Hensley singled to left and advanced to second on the throw, driving both runners home and putting FSU up 2-0.
UNC had runners on second and third in the fourth and left one on in the fifth, but the Tar Heels weren't able to capitalize for a score. In the bottom of the fifth, East doubled to left and then advanced to third on a Tar Heel error. She scored on a single through the left side by Hensley to put the Noles up 3-0.
In the seventh, Kati Causey drew a walk, and Elena Covert advanced to second on a ground out by Elliott while pinch running for Causey. Brown singled to right to advance Covert to third, and Lauren Walker pinch hit a single to center to bring in Covert to close down the shutout. Satterfield was hit by a pitch, loading the bases for Carolina, but a final strike out brought the game to an end.
Despite the loss, Lori Spingola had a strong showing in the circle for Carolina as she tallied her fifth game this season with 10 or more strikeouts. She gave up four hits and six walks with just one earned run.
The Tar Heels will head to Campbell on Wednesday, March 27, before returning to Chapel Hill for another conference series with Virginia Tech next weekend. Carolina will face the Hokies at 6 p.m. on Friday, March 29, and hold a doubleheader on Saturday, March 30, at 1 and 3 p.m.

Important Safety Information
What is Avastin approved for?
Glioblastoma (GBM) Avastin is approved to treat glioblastoma (GBM) when taken alone in adult patients whose cancer has progressed after prior treatment (recurrent or rGBM). The effectiveness of Avastin in rGBM is based on tumor response. Currently, no data have shown whether or not Avastin improves disease-related symptoms or survival in people with rGBM.
Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) Avastin is approved to treat metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) for:
- First- or second-line treatment in combination with intravenous 5-fluorouracil–based chemotherapy
- Second-line treatment when used with fluoropyrimidine-based (combined with irinotecan or oxaliplatin) chemotherapy after cancer progresses following a first-line treatment that includes Avastin
Avastin is not approved for use after the primary treatment of colon cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Avastin, in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel, is approved to treat advanced nonsquamous non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in people who have not received chemotherapy for their advanced disease.
Metastatic Kidney Cancer (mRCC) Avastin, used with interferon alfa, is approved to treat metastatic kidney cancer (mRCC).
Advanced Cervical Cancer (CC) Avastin, in combination with paclitaxel and cisplatin or paclitaxel and topotecan, is approved to treat persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cancer of the cervix.
Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer (prOC) Avastin, in combination with paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or topotecan, is approved to treat platinum-resistant recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer in women who received no more than two prior chemotherapy treatments.
Possible serious side effects
Everyone reacts differently to Avastin therapy. So it's important to know what the side effects are. Although some people may have a life-threatening side effect, most do not. Your doctor will stop treatment if any serious side effects occur. Be sure to contact your health care team if there are any signs of these side effects.
Most serious side effects (not common, but sometimes fatal):
- GI perforation. A hole that develops in your stomach or intestine. Symptoms include pain in your abdomen, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or fever
- Wounds that don't heal. A cut made during surgery can be slow to heal or may not fully heal. Avastin should not be used for at least 28 days before or after surgery and until surgical wounds are fully healed
- Serious bleeding. This includes vomiting or coughing up blood; bleeding in the stomach, brain, or spinal cord; nosebleeds; and vaginal bleeding. If you recently coughed up blood or had serious bleeding, be sure to tell your doctor
Other possible serious side effects
- Abnormal passage in the body. This type of passage—known as a fistula—is an irregular connection from one part of the body to another and can sometimes be fatal
- Severe high blood pressure. Blood pressure that severely spikes or shows signs of affecting the brain. Blood pressure should be monitored every 2 to 3 weeks while on Avastin and after stopping treatment

- Infusion reactions. These were uncommon with the first dose (less than 3% of patients). 0.2% of patients had severe reactions. Infusion reactions include high blood pressure or severe high blood pressure that may lead to stroke, trouble breathing, decreased oxygen in red blood cells, a serious allergic reaction, chest pain, headache, tremors, and excessive sweating. Your doctor or nurse will monitor you for signs of infusion reactions

Westerman, who has made 77 appearances since joining the Black and Whites from Castleford in 2011, has signed a new deal which will keep him at the KC Stadium until the end of 2016.
Hull's new coach Lee Radford, who last week secured the long-term services of Richard Whiting, said: "Joe is a natural footballer with bags of talent, something which he probably still hasn't quite realised to its maximum potential yet.
"This team is in need of leaders and that is something we also want to nurture out of Joe over the next three years.
"We want him to set an example and have an influence on the youngers guys in the squad, as well as offering leadership out on the field."
Westerman, 23, said: "I am pleased to get my future tied down. It was an easy decision to make.
"I'm really looking forward to working with Lee. He's a good coach and has an exciting vision for the club which you can already see him starting to mould into shape."Reuse content

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > How MIT Partners with Companies and Governments to Establish New Universities: The Case of Amsterdam
MIT is partnering with two Dutch universities and companies such as IBM, Shell, and Cisco to set up a new institute of technology in Amsterdam. The City of Amsterdam recently held a competition for this $300M+ institute, which aims to develop technological solutions for the challenges of metropolitan areas. Cooperation between knowledge institutions, companies, and government is key. MIT is expanding its footprint, should Harvard follow its example? Why MIT and not Harvard?
Sjoerd Arlman is Head of Strategy at the economic affairs department in the City of Amsterdam and a former consultant for The Boston Consulting Group. He will provide insights into the partnership, the competition and the results, and draw lessons for other Public Private Partnerships (PPPs).

The Browning P35 was always made by FN. Calling it a "Browning" was always something of a stretch, since John Browning died while developing the pistol. The original Browning design was rather unlike what we now know as a P35/Hi-Power.
The P35 was mainly designed by Dieudonne Saive, the FN engineer who also designed the FAL battle rifle. FN produced the gun, along with various licensed and unlicensed copies. The company called "Browning" is a subsidiary of FN.
The CZ75 has double-action capability the P35 lacks, but is not quite as slim and compact as the P35. The CZ75 is more reliable and less expensive. P35 magazines are less expensive and easier to find, and P35 holsters are more common.

Navy to Hold Public Meeting Regarding Construction of Naval Academy's Center for Cyber Security Studies
POSTED ON: Friday, June 6, 2014 8:00 AM by USNA PAO
Press Release: #059-14
A public meeting will be held Wednesday, June 18, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Loews Annapolis Hotel, 126 West St. regarding the DRAFT Environmental Assessment (EA) for the construction and operation of the proposed Center for Cyber Security Studies and parking garage at the Naval Academy.
The DRAFT EA is available for review on the Naval Academy website. Printed copies are available at the Annapolis Area Library, 1410 West St. Annapolis, Md.
The DRAFT EA incorporates comments and concerns received from the public after the first public meeting held Feb. 5.
The meeting will include displays and materials for review. Navy staff will be present to answer questions.
Vice Admiral Michael H. Miller, superintendent of the academy, will speak about the project at 7:30 p.m.
Those who wish to comment on the project can provide a written statement at the meeting or have a stenographer record your comments there. Comments also can be submitted by mail, phone or email to: USNA Public Affairs Office, 121 Blake Road, Annapolis, Md. 21401; 410-293-1520; email@example.com. Comments must be received or postmarked by July 18.
The proposed building will house the academy's Center for Cyber Security Studies, a Secure Compartmentalized Information Facility and engineering classrooms.
The preferred location for the building is the current parking lot between Nimitz Library and Rickover Hall on the grounds of the academy. Due to the loss of parking from constructing the building, this project also includes the construction of a two-story parking garage at the Alumni Hall parking lot.

Last weekend I finally set out to make my own flightsuit after using an altered pair of Dickies for the last year and a half. The Dickies were fine for the beginning stages of my Jango suit, but the inaccuracy in color became more and more bothersome as my suit progressed and became more complete. As suggested by MiraX and others I used a Green Pepper Black Butte Jumpsuit pattern and altered as necessary to replicate the Jango flightsuit details.
The fabric is a medium weight 100% cottom brushed linen purchased within the labyrinth of the garmet district in downtown L.A. during my last trip to the FIDM exhibit in September.
The first pic was taken outside in the sun for a color comparison from left to right between my old Dickies navy coveralls, the fabric I bought, and a Red Kapp postal blue coveralls I still have in the box in the garage and can't return cause it's too late.
It took me the better part of two weekends to complete this project (including this 3 day weekend which my wife wasn't too thrilled about) and I still have to reinforce the leg armor areas with iron on patches on the inside of the suit, and sew the button holes for the armor elastic straps. I also need to add elastic strapping between the two sleeves for the gauntlet hose clips, and seal the exposed seams on the inside of the flightsuit to further prevent fraying.
I like the medium blue flightsuit color portrayed in the pictures in the Dressing the Galaxy book so I'm going to keep the color as it is for now.
Enjoy and know that if I had no tailoring skills or very minimal skills this project would be best left to the pro flightsuit makers like Bobamaker and Skygunbro. I have the utmost respect for their flightsuit making skills after venturing this project.:thumbsup
Oh, and the zipper running up the front is a parka zipper that unzips from both ends for those restroom emergencies (#1 only though) :lol.
Enjoy, Cruzer:jango

2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Mike Iupati, OG, Idaho
1 Comment | Add Yours
I'm surprised that this was updated just this past Thursday. No way is Iupati even close to the #45 ranking that you gave him. He is so big, quick & powerful that he won't make it out of the 1st rd.
His combination of size, athleticism, and ability to adjust lead me to believe he will be a great run blocker in the NFL. He hustles to block for WRs on screens and plays through the whistle on many runs. I am also impressed, in pass protection, by his ability to get into his stance quickly off the snap. I have not once seen his man beat him off the snap. Iupati generally plays with good leverage, which is important since he is quite tall for a guard. He also has good footwork and can slide with a stunting tackle easily. This ability to move his feet has lead to many NFL scouts suspecting that Iupati could play tackle in the NFL.
My hope is that the Dallas Cowboys pick him up with the 32nd pick. He can play any position on the line besides OC, and would be a welcome addition to an aging offensive line.

What are the difficulties in using synonyms to explain vocabulary when working with beginners?
Suppose your student told you his/her (correct) choice of a word was based on a decision that it just "sounded right". Would you confirm for the student that this is a valid reason to use the word, or would you ask for a more logical explanation?
Any suggestions


text: There's nothing like curling up and watching old movies and TV shows, especially when there's so much inspiration to be found in the hair and makeup looks of the leading ladies. Think Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface and Mary Stuart Masterson in Some Kind of Wonderful, both of which could be easily worked into a contemporary look. I've gathered up some of my favorites from days past, but I'd also love to hear some of your top picks, too.

The recipe was inspired by a goose/duck slider recipe i've seen on Hunter, Angler, Gardener, Cook.
I've made these goose burgers numerous times, and they come out delicous, juicy, and will make any non believer a fan of goose.
Ingredients -
Goose Breast (atleast 1lb)
Bacon (atleast 1/4lb)
Dried Onion (Flakes or Minced, both work the same)
Now first you must follow this simple rule, to make delicious goose burgers you must, MUST mix 1/4 lb (about 4 - 5) strips of bacon for every lb of goose. This ratio is crucial, not enough bacon will give you dry burgers, and too much bacon will over take the flavor.
Next cube up the bacon and goose, put em a bowl and toss em in the freezer for 20 - 30min, then take the bowl out of the freezer and proceed to process the cubed bacon and goose through a meat grinder.
*be sure that you're mixing the bacon and goose together good, don't just grind the goose, then bacon, the flavors will not meld as well
Now take your freshly ground meat mixture, form patties, and coat them in the dried onions ( don't go too crazy, but make sure there's a nice even coating on both sides of the patty. Then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Finally, Grill to Med - Med well (about 5-7mins on each side depending on your grill, Internal temp of 160 degrees) and enjoy! They taste great with cheese and ketchup like reg burgers, or plain with any of your favorite condiments, I personally enjoy them with honey mustard, or ketchup.

I have a pair of ROTJ style gauntlets and they seem to small for my forearms.
I have a pair of ROTJ style gauntlets and they seem to small for my forearms.
IMO the right one should cover 19 cm of your forearm, or, in inches, 7,5" (plus the rear piece wich is removable). I don't know about the left.
well, i'm not makeing them, i already bought a pair. they just look a tad small to me...
most stuff tends to be "movie sized"... so if you are exceptionally short/tall/wide/narrow/etc... stuff gets a bit wonky.
if you are looking for bigger gauntlets, hunting down some of the older 1st gen man o war ones would be good. i seem to remember they were on the larger side.
well i'll take pics of them on my wrists so you guys tell me how they look.
I think those are based on the toy costume kit made by Kenner in the mid 90's.
Mine seem a lot longer than that too. Not sure of the origin of mine though.
oh that looks too short for you man.
the right arm gauntlet with the sticky outy bit at end. its tip almost reaches my elbow
they gauntlets look abt 1.5 inches too short in my Newb eye. unless u got really long forearms?
I have a casio mq-1 calculator if anyone is in need of one?
???? Why pick this thread to post that in?
!!! wow, that was aggressive, i thought i was being nice and offering it to your community for the costume makers to put on their gauntlets before i just get rid of it on e-bay. thanks for your kind words! i am unable to pit it in the for sale section at the moment. im sorry i intruded on your gauntlet chat you are obviosly very protective!
It was not intended to be aggressive at all. I was simply wanting to know why you chose a thread that hasn't had activity for over a month to post that you are trying to sell something.
Edit: I would suggest posting an introduction in the introduction forum, get to know how TDH works, get involved with the community by making some other posts etc. Then wait the proper amount of time and post that you are selling your casio in the proper place; the cargo hold. You will have better luck selling it there as it will have more exposure.

Thanks for your response but I have no interest in this website and was merely trying to offer it to someone who might want it. I chose this thread as it was a discussion about gauntlets. Blimey what a hassle.

If something is continually change to something else we called it as impermanent. It is like a stream of a river. Same person will not be able to stepping to the same river twice. A rock does appear to be permanent but it will turn to dust eventually. Empirical sense there is a rock but there is no rock in absolute sense. The reason for this is that a so called rock is made out of other elements. So it is conditioned reality.

Craftsman Diagnostic Analyzer manual
I have an old analyzer model # 161.2104500 but i dont have the manual for it. Does anyone have one or know where to get one?
google: craftsman diagnostic analyzer #161.2104500 manual
I really hate to be so blunt but don't spend any money on that thing! It is nothing more than a cheap analog multimeter and there are much better testers to be had for just a few dollars. If you open up the case you will find it is just a big box full of almost nothing, just that cheap analog multimeter stuck to the front of the otherwise empty box with a few wires going to the various switches. These things were sold in the early 80's under various names but unfortunately they are just a gimmick, a fancy box to make it look high tech so they could sell a $5 multimeter for almost a hundred bucks! You can go to Wal-Mart and buy an analog multimeter that will take up a heck of a lot less room in your tool box, open up the case and take a look and you will see what I am talking about.
I figured it is probably a piece of crap and just this side of useless. I was just curious what it was actually supposed to be good for and whether it even worked. I can't even remember where it came from. It has been sitting around on a shelf for probably at least 20 years.
I have one, the manual is pretty useless and I lost it years ago. The only thing you might need the manual for is for doing load testing with the shunt adapter which i have never used. I have only used it for setting point dwell since the large sweep face makes it easy to dial it in perfect. Of course no use for that function anymore with Electronic ignition the norm.
I will say the meter being large is handy but the case is largely empty as mentioned, lots of storage room for cables and accessories in the back storage cage though.
Its a collectors item if you ask me, my Fluke 88 is far more useful.
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.
Han Solo
Believe it or not I think those things were even sold by MAC tools back in the 80's, I may be wrong about MAC but it was one of the big tool names. If you open the case the multimeter even has a brand name on it, Sunpro I think (it is Sun-something or other) but it has been a long time since I have seen one. It is just an average size multimeter hooked to that big outside face and needle and it came with several handy accessories for automotive electrical testing. If it still works and you have all the extras it certainly can be used it is just that the same things can be done with a much more compact meter.
I have a similar model and it is very useful if used properly. An analog meter can actually be a better tool than a digital as it gives you a visual relationship of two or more readings rather than just numbers. If that meter is the same as mine you can do alternator amperage output diagnostics up to 100 amps, you will not be doing that with your hand held meter anytime soon.
My model number is slightly different. If you want I will try to get the manual copied and sent to you

T, the shunt that is one of the accessories allows that high AMP check not the meter itself. Honestly it is just an analog multimeter and nothing more any tricks it can do is a function of the accessories that come with it, if those are missing then the thing is just a multimeter housed in a big empty metal box. Did you ever look inside the case?
Those things were only available for a short time because word got around quickly about what they were and in no time at all Sears could not give the things away. They sold for a while for, IRC, at $79.95 but the last ones at our local Sears had gotten down to a "clearance" price of $9.95, I remember joking about them with one of the salesmen at the time. The reason I remember them so well is that one year I was given 3 of the darn things as gifts!

Dont get me wrong, I also have a good assortment of VOM meters, both analog and digital, a couple scopes etc.For certain items I still like the analog over the digital.

For sure an analog meter is a valuable item to have, DVOMs have too slow a reaction time for some things. For instance an analog meter could be used to extract codes from the early automotive computer systems by counting the number of hand sweeps, try that with a digital meter. Some sensors need an analog meter to check for a momentary signal voltage but of course checking some sensors with an analog meter could cause damage. The fact is there is a need for both and I keep both in my box but the analog (an older Simpson) is rarely used, still it sometimes comes in very handy.
Also I never intended it to sound like I thought those Craftsman outfits should just be thrown away just that they are really not worth spending much money on to get one operational considering what they are.
I maybe late on this but a friend gave me one of these a couple of years ago for fixing his car. I was Googling it and it lead me back to the hotrodders forum which I frequent.
Are you guys saying this tool is inaccurate or just a low tech analog meter?
I have yet to use it but got it out and was going to play around with it. Mainly because I'm trying to set the idle speed on a car and I don't trust my Sunpro tuneup tach. It reads 1200 rpms without even hooked up then I have to shake it to get it to read zero.
Since I have not used the Craftsmans yet, I can't comment on it's usefulness but if it's accurate then that is what matters most isn't it? Nothing like trying to tune a car with an innacurate instrument.
I have never seen an analog meter that reads as high as 600 amps. Which would be handy to test an alternator if the meter reads correctly. Otherwise you would have to take the alternator off and take it to Autozone and have them put it on their machine. Then all their machine will tell you is if it's good or bad. A lot of times I want to actually know how many amps and volts the alternator is producing.
Most meters only measure in milliamps and this one meter I have the maximum it will read is 10 amps. Which is good for checking circuits that are draining the battery.
If anyone needs a copy of the owner's manual, I can scan it.
As mentioned in an above post (from several years back, BTW) it's the shunt that carries that high amperage and if that accessory is missing or damaged (it's often damaged) then the meter will not handle any significant AMP checks, with the shunt a cheap Wally World meter could be used. Without that shunt to carry most of the load (almost all of it actually) that meter will instantly smoke it's innards if connected across a heavy load! The fact is that thing is simply a bad joke and was nothing more than a rip-off, it's just a big empty box with a large meter face with a cheap imported multi-meter attached, if it seems to work ok and you have all the accessories to go with it then it can be used but bear in mind you will be using a simple and cheaply constructed multi-meter that is probably over 35 years old. if you are really concerned about accuracy then invest a few dollars in some modern meters, even econo meters/testers will be better than that antiquated analog multi-meter that was nothing more than a gimmick when it was new.
Sorry to be so blunt about that thing but back "in the day" when they were sold they got to be quite a joke and somewhat of an embarrassment for Sears after everyone caught on to what they were buying, I doubt if they have gotten any better over the years.
I tested the tach function on this meter the other day using my Subaru as the test mule. Thinking the tach on this car was the most accurate, I compared the two readings. It was spot on! If anything, this meter is good for measuring engine speed. And it uses an inductive clamp that wraps around the plug wire rather than an alligater clip you have to connect to the - side of the coil so I like that. With newer cars (that have coil packs), the negative post on the coil is not always easy to get to unless you rig up a bunch of paperclips, wire or something since a lot of coil packs use a single gang connector.
The cheap Sunpro tuneup tach I had been using is off by about 300 rpms.
As far as testing amperage, you wrap the other inductive clamp included around the battery cable. I don't know if that would blow the meter up or not.
Keep in mind, this meter did not cost me anything. It was a gift for helping fix a friend's car.
I may be wrong but if my memory is correct that it is that very brand, a Sunpro meter linked to the rear of that big face. It's easy enough to remove the back and look at the meter inside and if it's the same as the ones I remember it is just a cheap Sunpro and that's one of the things that caused such a ruckus over them "back then".
I didn't mean to just toss this thing if it still works and I said as much in previous posts, sorry if it sounded that way. The only reason I even said anything about them is it seems that after all these years they keep popping back up from time to time and folks seem to have forgotten the poor reputation they had when they were new. There really was somewhat of a stink raised over them and they became somewhat of an embarrassment for Sears at a time when Sears took a bit more pride in the Craftsman brand name.
