Dude! Those gauntlets look sick! Out of curiosity, why leave the area where you have to put the calculator key pad hollow?

jakefox24 · Apr 18, 2012

Yeah there is a plate to go in there just on the hunt for an casio MQ1 calculator for keypad ect , got a few old school mates who had them ( if only they knew !

) on the look out . Just wanted to have one for snug fit , no other reason Achaster me ol mucker

A little more progress on right gaunt ........

jakefox24 · May 4, 2012

Right gaunt has come to a halt as can't seem to get hold of any Alco MPE106d switches . Am able to get them here in the UK in bulk of 100 but only want 2 so if there's any OB1s out there can you help me ' your my only hope'

jakefox24 · May 6, 2012

Wahey ! found some switches , they are Alco MPA106d switches but are exactly the same and $10 each so as soon as they arrive can complete right gaunt

jakefox24 · May 14, 2012

Still waiting for the right gaunt switches so have reverted back to finish the left . Have now got the MQ1 and am about to dismantle for the key board but here is what i've done and what i used for the flamethrower gribblies .
