    Re: Project Panzerbox: A Tribute to Wolfenstein

    Ok, Nate was asking me, "Is the top carry handle attached yet?" and I finally did it this morning and it works great! we just need a complete system inside to carry in it! and I should have pics of the Mamba mouse's progress posted by tommorow. I'm heading over to the paint booth after posting this.

    Heres the Mamba mouse progress, Brad gave it the pose of "I WANT YOU" taken from the Uncle Sam recruiting poster used extensively during World War II. ' it needs to be cleared and buffed out today.

    Wow Indifferent

    As a long time Wolfenstein fan (grew up on Wolf 3D), I've got to say this is one of the coolest case mods I've seen.  I absolutely love the side of it. Keep up the good work!

    Thank you for comments!

    We are going to try swapping the gun location to the front, What do you think about that?

    Thank you!

    Hey gang, Yes, it's been awhile since the last update, we kept this project under wraps while we work on other commitments. I've been wanting to do more with the handle. I've decided to make the carry handle look just like the Mp40 gun from the game.

    Re: Project Panzerbox: A Tribute to Wolfenstein

    performance-pcs was out of stock on the red dot vandal switch, so I ordered from FrozenCPU.com They have option for 2ft wire connection (pre-wired too) so that will save some time for me..nice!

    I mounted a toggle switch in place of the Mp40's trigger

    A nice gift from John arrived. Thank you :D

    Diecast 1948 HD Panhead. I found a nice parking spot for it in the studio






    I'm routing wires from the bottom of the Mp40's clip into the chassis, made a 7/8" hole and capped it with a 22mm - 16mm reducer

    Re: Project Panzerbox: A Tribute to Wolfenstein

    Cool mod guys, very nice job using that MP40 airsoft gun for the mod!

    My friend actually owns an MP40 and says your mod is pretty realistic! He also said it was downright sick! Big Smile
