If you find one, we would all love to see it! Most people just guess.

So I started working on my JP with my friend Ian. Ian is a super talented artist and programmer who built a working holochess table, and helped develop the app to play it. https://www.facebook.com/dejarikcreations/?fref=ts.
I helped him build an accurate Falcon Bench for last years Emerald City Comic Con. We helped raise 20k for Children's Hospital.
He also built a fantastic Boushh for his wife from scratch.
I'm really excited to see how this comes out. Thoughts?

Coming along nicely!! Not sure if you are going for uber accuracy but there are some things you may want to consider updating on your holster.
The areas in red need to be cut out...
The sidearm should sit much deeper in the holster, allowing the muzzle to be shown completely. You can see that the vertical part of the holster that covers the Pulce trigger guard has been cut out to show that section of the sidearm. The knife sheath has been cut out as well.
Hope that helps

Ok, valuable lesson learned. First lesson, never drink and eBay. Never. Second lesson, research, and read this forum. Third lesson, never drink and eBay.
One evening after a couple whiskeys I came upon a completed set of ESB gauntlets for $300. To be honest they didn't look horrible. A little work and I thought I could bring them up to snuff. This is what the auction photo looked like.
This is what I got.
They looked nothing like the auction photo. I immediately boxed them up and sent them back. Luckily, the seller had a 14 day return policy and I was able to get all of my money refunded. I took that money and bought a MOW gauntlet kit. A little more work on my end, but, it going to be worth it. DON'T DRINK AND EBAY!!!

It looked like they were part of the mold. Not separate pieces. They looked nothing like the auction photo.

Yikes! Yeah that's not cool, a lot of eBay vendors suck!

More progress on the JP today. Installed the aluminum parts from Machinecraft replicas. Solid parts, by the way. I also got the light installed in the beacon, although it's not on in the pic. 3D printed dental file also installed. Did some more work on the damaged parts. I think it's coming along nicely.
Need to tone down the yellow, and dirty it up a bit more. But I'm really happy with it.
My MOW Gauntlet kit also showed up. I was able to get the bits and pieces sanded and a coat of primer on them. Progress is being made.
