Small update on this, I have been in the middle of moving home so had no real time to continue this, but Ihave made a few small changes, first off I have a new tempory work station in one of the unused back rooms in the house
[ATTACH=full]140495[/ATTACH]

I couple of little items arrived in the mail, I have a better version of the gauntlet keypad and the vent for my jet pack that I left out
[ATTACH=full]140496[/ATTACH]

I was going to buy the light beacon on the pack but I thought I would make it, turns out the little bit at the top with the slits in it is hard to make, but I found the top off a tooth paste tube when trimmed down fits a treat,

I also turned down some wooden dowel to get the tapper in the beacon

made the little adjustment knob for the other side well I was at it, them cheep crafting knifes come in handy for this part!

its a bit raw at the moment and I know there is only 3 slits in it,as far as I know it should be 4 but that's all I could do without the whole thing becoming to brittle

I have made a few changes to the pack its self, it needed all the wires put in, power and a nice 8mm LED for the beacon, its a bit of a mess at the moment but I will get it all painted again and sealed up looking good as new in no time.

I will have the beacon fitted by tonight for the grand tun on, I hope it come out alright the LED I am using is very powerful that's for sure, I dont fancy walking round with a little light house on my back!

We shall see later..
