MOW Preproduction Gauntlets

Hey Guys,

Wanted to start a new thread on the Preproduction gauntlets progress.

The upper and lower sections are made of gel coated epoxy resin reinforced with 3 layers of fiberglass strand clothe. The epoxy is very strong and far less brittle than traditional polyester resin. The dry time is hell but the end product is worth it!

Lots of metal fabrication here!

The metal work is laborious, time consuming and expensive but the overall assembly is fairly easy.

A limited run of these may come available soon but I gottah warn you guys, "It's gonna hit the wallet"!

More to come..

Christian

Darn nice, a thing of beauty , Ive never seen the 2 hose attachments on any b4 , that really finish's them of some,
When you say "hit the wallet" Im guessing it must be there,, any loose indication on what we are expecting

Very cool!

Nice work Christian!

Hey Guys,

Added the coil this morning but it got damaged a bit fishing it back out :doh I'll sort it out later..Just wanted to get the shot!

Looks real nice! Can you give a ballpark range. Thanks!

That looks amazing........ can't wait to see these..... might just have to do them......

]Hey Guys,

Here's the current version. Some new brass detailing has been added for a more authentic look :thumbsup

Wow! Great Work. Looks awsome!

MOW=WOW!!! Sick!

Really amazing work, those looks amazing man.

Nice work, Brother! :thumbsup

I can't wait to see these out there and painted up!

I want a set of these too

Hey Guys,

I'll be auctioning off a fully assembled set of these on eBay in the next day or so to get a general sense of interest in this version?

Due to overall cost and fabrication time a kit version seems unlikely...I'll wait to make a final decision after the auction?

Thanks for the thumbs up guys...

Best,
Christian

That gauntlet is so sick! Excellent work!

We're gonna have a talk... :lol

Man I need them ,,

How bout you make just the body and a resin rocket, seeing youve put the work in to the body as well why not justt offer those we can make the atachments our selfs
Ive been hanging out for these for months

Hey Guys,

Do to lack of interest I'm officially putting this project on the shelf.

I must have read it all wrong I thought you said you only had one set ,, sorry I just look at the pics:wacko

Holy C**P, that's beautiful! :suprise

Seriously hoping theres enough interest to get this going again... :cheering I'm definitely in on any possible runs in the future.

Wow AEWESOME Christian!!!!!!!! Congratulations Bro!!!!!!!!!

Woah, absolutely amazing work on these!!! WANT!!

Gorgeous.

That is beautiful! You need to bring these back! :(

They look great!

Yo Christian, how man people do you need to get the wheels back on this project? There's clearly a good amount of people interested in these. If you have even one set laying around, I'd happily take it off your hands in a FLASH, no joke.

I'm sourcing components for a friend's PP2 Boba project, and your gaunts are the best I've seen so far, hands down. He'd totally be a "interested pending cost", but I'm planning to strongly urge him to take the plunge.
