The spring is here and its time for upgrades, Got lots of events coming up this year so need to get back on the Fett and hone it in some more as we all know you are never truly finished with your outfit!
to start off with I have a 5 touch button sound board with about 50 recorded lines of dialogue taken from Star Wars battle front... some of them are familiar lines and others are purely from the game and Temuera Morrison lends his voice for this so its cannon in my mind
Video below.

I have run it through my Aker system but man its loud, so loud that the volume wheel is almost in the off position so when I talk through the Aker you cant hear me as the volume is so low. .... I may end up stripping down one of them little portable speakers with built in amp and run that as a separate system.. I haven't found a practical place to put the switches yet, I could rig it up to a strap on my palm under the glove and touch with my fingers for the line I want.. not sure yet, I am trying to get a clean audio of Jason Wingreens voice but every time the man talks as Fett there is music playing or Vader is breathing all over him so its hard to get a clean audio of him. I will keep trying on that one but for now Morrison will be just fine.
I am also working on my EE3 I was never really happy with the handle and stock, I built it for comfort and lightness but to hell with that now I need it to be more accurate so I am working on that at the same time...up dates to follow.
Also I got me a 3D printer, in the past I have said this will kill off all creativity when its so easy to simply print stuff off, and yes you can easily just find an object and print it! and so I did
I ts a replacement flash hider for My home brew Dl44, I wont say this will totally take over my build ethic of 'recycle and reuse' but it does have its place for them awkward little greeblies...
took me about a week to get a decent print by the way, much respect to people who use this method full time!!!...
