Ghostbusters Proton Proton Pack Wand Pop Mechanism

thingiverse

This is a proton pack wand pop mechanism that I've engineered to fit inside the wand gunbox. It works with two rubber bands and a trigger that is activated by the green handled lever that sticks outside of the gunbox. The locking "hooks" were taken from bottle opener gun that I thought was perfectly designed. This was modeled and created specifically for this gunbox: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:575218 The small end of it fits inside a 1" PVC pipe. This is a work in progress and has taken a lot of trial and error to figure out. The mechanism itself is based off these photos from GBFans: http://www.gbfans.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=14772 I'll post full instructions and directions when I'm done. Update 5/9/2020 I've included all of the parts as the design stands for now. I'm continuing to prototype and try to get a solid design. Always welcome suggestions. I've made 4 different connector pieces for wands of different sizes or for other uses if someone needs them. I've also included a pin for the clear tubing connector at the tip of the wand. Update 8/8/202 All parts have been retooled the main tube has be reconfigured to have a lower profile. Still working on the prototype.
