Proton Pack V-Mount & Where Have We Been?

Bill's Ghostbusters Proton Pack has gone through several upgrades over the years and today he decided to add a robust, aluminum v-mount to the pack and nutrona wand. Plus, Bill explains why we haven't been posting as many videos here on KZbin as we used to.

[@zenmaster76]

This has an Adam Savage One Day Build vibe and I am here for it. I love seeing the cool stuff you build in your major videos but we stick with you because you are good people so less production value and more personality is all right with me

[@punishedprops]

Good thing I've got a whole bucket full of personality! 😂

[@jenniferbonnette9187]

Came here to say this as well. Also glad you are taking care of yourself and your family. Too many people forget to make that a priority.

[@sciencegey]

As long as you keep making amazing stuff that you want to, I certainly don't mind how long it takes for videos to appear ;)

[@punishedprops]

Fabulous! =D

[@Justrex01]

2020 broke a lot of us in many ways. You guys stay strong and keep building stuff. We'll be here!

[@punishedprops]

Right on!

[@domramsey]

This was fun. I like the more relaxed and unplanned videos. I actually get a little turned off by channels that make big productions when I just want to see the people and the process.

[@punishedprops]

Excellent, expect more of this.

[@14Mew]

Hi Bill and Britt! Its been awhile since I've been able to watch your content, I don't know if you read comments on old videos or not, but I feel like I speak for a lot of us when I say that we'll be happy with whatever kind of content you create. Fantastic builds and over the top videos are great, but we as fans and makers can and do learn just as much from content you may consider 'lesser' caliber. I guess I don't know the metrics of your videos, but I enjoy seeing content where you show off techniques, and show off your tools and things you've learned from years in the trade. Seeing videos of you learning a new technique or tool also, in my opinion makes the content a lot more relatable. Everyone is always learning so seeing someone we look up to doing the same makes you super relatable in a lot of ways, and that kind of genuinety is what I find super wholesome. We appreciate all you do, and although we don't see the whole picture, know that we're here to support the two of you and your business, no matter what you decide to do moving forward. We're here for the people and the personalities, not the most over the top things you can do. Just like glue, less is more. If dialing it back a little means you are able to produce content more often without being stressed, well. I for one, will be here for it. Thanks for being such an awesome couple to teach and share your talents with the world.

[@punishedprops]

Thanks so much

[@damienwhelan698]

Honestly, even if you wanted to do more content of smaller builds/modifications like One day build type of stuff, I certainly love the rawness of these videos of you just working on stuff and talking about life, no big edits, no music, just turn on the camera and talk while working on stuff. It's really nice to play while working on my own stuff. You have a great personality and are super funny, so if these type of videos are something you guys considered, bring it on! :D

[@ClubRemy]

I tell people sometimes that you and Britt essentially built complete courses for both undergrad and grad level curriculum in cosplay. My personal theory was that did such an amazing job building a curriculum that there wasn't as much need to do new videos. Understanding vaguely how the algorithm works, I get that is a bit of a fantasy, but it is how I think of all the wonderful content you've produced. Happy to see your face again and look forward to whatever you do in the future.

[@punishedprops]

I never really looked at it that way! Thanks for the enlightening perspective and kind words. =)

[@adampope6143]

I’m a big fan of the casual prop builds. So keep doing what is good for you. I’ll watch it all.

[@garagemonkeysan]

Great video. I look forward to the day when people think seeing a therapist isn't a weakness but a strength. Super design. Love how you cut aluminum on the cnc. Mahalo for sharing! : )

[@punishedprops]

More and more people I know are opening up about therapy and I think the world is better for it.

[@coreyennis9411]

Thanks for the update!! I have to admit I'm one of those that was screaming WHY to the heavens when I didn't see a weekly video from you. So happy to see your face and that you are taking care of yourself! As long as its not a video of your shoulder or elbow the whole time, any content is great!

[@punishedprops]

HA! Oh yes the challenges of filming yourself making something. 😂

[@ReedCBowman]

YAY for original designs! Much as I love the prop replica world (on and off KZbin), the huge amount of craftsmanship poured into existing pop-culture designs wears me out, and I always want to see the amazing makers stretching their creative wings and building their own designs.

[@punishedprops]

I am so pumped to pour some energy into my own designs. It's gonna be fun!

[@coregeek]

Wherever you guys go from here will be great. Excited to see what it becomes. I appreciate all you’ve done as a maker and friend.

[@punishedprops]

Thank you for the kind words and years of encouragement, old friend. =)

[@DeaconXPS]

Glad to hear it you two. As a father who recently lost both of his children I can attest to the fact that life is short, time is limited, and you can NEVER spend enough time with those whom you love and cherish. Your priorities are in the right place.

[@MarkRhodesMaker]

Thanks for being so open about your mental health and the impact your work has had on you. So glad to hear you've put the priority in your health and happiness

[@donbrough6386]

Great to have you both back making stuff, missed you. Glad you’re on a new path and enjoying life. Don

[@amandacarter291]

Being a prop maker is very time consuming, editing KZbin videos is very time consuming. I can only imagine doing both. Glad you're slowing down and taking care of yourselves

[@Mu-podcast]

I'm all good with whatever type of content works for you and Britt. It's great to hear that you're in a better place personally. I can only imagine how stressful the big shop with employees was. It was worth doing though, because you guys learned so much from that time. I'm looking forward to the new 3d printing projects you have in the works.

[@AndyMerrillJigsawHC]

Thanks for all your videos over the years. I regularly come back and watch them again to see your techniques and tips as I work on projects. Even with posting fewer videos not sure I'll be watching any less :)

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much!

[@michaelcain2174]

I was at work when I got a notification of a new punished props video , 😱😱😱 I was so excited to get home , get comfy and watch my favourite KZbin channel ❤

[@punishedprops]

Awe, thank yoU!

[@elvisdepelvis4431]

Thank you for sharing what you went through and being so open. I can relate to a lot of the pressure, but still at the beginning of my journey back to ‘normal’

[@punishedprops]

Oh yeah, it's an ongoing journey.

[@ConjuredCraft]

Hell yeah Bill! I'm really happy to hear you're prioritizing your health and wellbeing first. You and Brit have been heroes of mine for years and it means alot to hear this honest update as a person who makes videos as well. Really excited to see what you both get up to, when you're ready to share.

[@punishedprops]

Awe, you're too kind!

[@samingram09]

I haven't been a subscriber since the beginning, but have become a huge fan in the past few years. Your guys' content is super inspiring to watch, and I was so happy to see a new video! Your enthusiasm for your projects is infectious, and I'm always excited to see what you all do next! It makes me excited to go home and try new things and flex that creative part in my brain that has laid dormant for a few years. Just keep being you!

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much for your kind words. =)

[@doubleV4]

Back to roots what I'm hearing, good to have you back! had to check I've been following for about 9-10 years, time flies :D

[@punishedprops]

Yeah it feels like a return to our old school style and I'm pretty OK with that. 9-10 years? That must mean I'm in my 40s now! How did that happen?? 😂

[@forby_]

Glad you both are finding schedules that work for you! It can be tough. You're doing great. Looking forward to the 3D printing stuff! 🤘

[@punishedprops]

Right on Forby! =D

[@NickCallan]

I think I actually the more low-key, casual builds more. Thanks for all you do!

[@jerryriggedpuppets2189]

This was exactly what I needed. I loved this relaxed style of video. I felt like I was just hanging out with a friend and we were working on 2 separate builds. Super chill, relaxed, and it’s better for you all around? Absolute win.

[@MrGWillickers]

70 push ups in a row is pretty awesome. Glad you're taking care of yourself. I wouldnt be a full time maker with your videos for the past 9 years (that Ive been wathcing), and as much as I love your content, your mental health is way more important than all of that. When you announced on patreon the new venture, I was a little sad, but now I am extremely excited for you. Good Luck

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much!

[@billyspocketlife]

Everything is totally okay and understandable, everyone has gone through a lot these few years and I've definitely had a fair share of rough spots in life and trying to get everything flowing nicely. That's great you've started reaching out to someone, we always need someone to help even to just listen to us especially the right person that won't just get bored of us letting go of anything going on and not carrying too much on our own. I look forward to seeing things to come from you.

[@punishedprops]

Thanks so much!

[@Modern_Mixologist1933]

I always loved the older videos. Where you showed us how to make awesome props, at a beginner level. Love your content as always and I can’t wait to see what you guys do next. 😊

[@VariablePenguin]

Awesome to hear you're taking care of yourself and you're doing better. Looking forward to what y'all come up with next.

[@punishedprops]

Thanks! =)

[@Magicguy33]

Oh yeah less editing never hurt anybody 👍🏽👍🏽 glad you guys are working on something exciting to share!

[@punishedprops]

We are so excited for the new thing! =)

[@danofthedead3345]

glad you guys are still at it, looking forward to whatever you all come up with.

[@punishedprops]

Hurray! =)

[@JRK1791]

I love your content, and the builds you put out are amazing! Keep doing what makes you happy and what fuels your passions. The last 3 years were hard, but the future is bright with possibilities!

[@punishedprops]

The future *is* bright! I'm so stoked for what's to come.

[@DonFassbender]

Thanks for the update. Take care of yourselves, first and foremost! Can't wait to see July's creation.

[@punishedprops]

Thank you! Will do!

[@LadyEonaleth]

So glad to have you back and I have been waiting for this day Xd. Glad to hear you are getting help for your stress level and don't worry about posting much. More important to keep your sanity *hugs*

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much. =)

[@tonyb4288]

Great to know you guys are doing well and back in action; wondered what had happened and now we know. Wishing you all the best in your current and future endeavours 😉👍!!

[@punishedprops]

Thank you, kindly!

We're here for you Bill. Love your work.

[@punishedprops]

Thanks so much!

[@reesjohnson1316]

It figures I’d just be starting to get into prop and costume just in time for you to switch gears 😂 I’m happy that y’all are prioritizing yourselves and your health. Thank you for all the videos and I will continue to be excited every time I see a new video from y’all!

[@punishedprops]

You're most welcome! Have fun going through the back-log of videos. There's a *lot* of them.

[@yavrielsechelle7431]

You guys are cool. I enjoy your off-the-cuff style. It's relaxing. Thank you for all the hard work and sacrifices you have made to bring us fresh, interesting, creative and inspiring content. I'm glad you're taking care of yourself. I'm happy to see you're doing something you love. I admire that of you guys. Thanks for everything you do.

[@punishedprops]

You're most welcome!

[@Shae_Sandybanks]

Love y'all! Hope your new venture works out for you both! ❤❤

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much!

[@theblondskeleton]

Just FYI: what you have done with this channel is not just the grind you feel on the creation/management end. Your videos taught me to use Fusion360, and I am now (barely but getting better all the time!) able to design my own parts and components. Thank you so much for that! I had tried a few other methods over the years and was never able to wrap my head around it. Something in the way you taught it clicked! As an educator (drama, stagecraft, and fabrication), I understand burnout and I know how my students’ feedback can sustain me during difficult times. We all value what you do, your skills, talent, and enthusiasm for making. Quality over quantity. Mental health first. Remember why you do this. Take care of you and your family first. We will enthusiastically anticipate your next adventure!

[@punishedprops]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm super proud of what we've been able to share over the years. =D

[@bret167]

One of the things that my therapist said that has really helped and really stuck is. Setting things in stone is great. As long as we remember that stone wears away and can break. Also, remember how hard it can be to get something out of stone. And that removing it always changes it sonehow. And always breaks the stone. I dont know if that helps, but yeah. Helped me be less rigid and remember to cut myself some slack. You two are amazing. we're excited to see what's in store. But take as long as it takes.

[@punishedprops]

That's some really solid advice. Thanks for sharing. =)

[@svenhurdurburdursson8765]

I forgot all about you. Welcome back, Bill & Britt!

[@punishedprops]

Thank you!

[@shawnkiernan]

I love the kits idea! I got into and built your blade runner blaster because that kit and putting it together mechanically appealed so much. Best of luck with the new avenue

[@punishedprops]

Oh yes, putting together mechanical kits makes my brain go brrrr! I can't wait to share more.

[@smr1618]

Glad you’re both taking time to be in a healthier place, & stoked for your fitness progress. Congratulations man nice work. Not to sound like your mother, and I hope you don’t take it the wrong way, but it also makes me happy to see you’re more comfortable and confident not wearing your hat all the time. Looking good brother, excited to see what this new venture holds for you both

[@TheVgonman]

One thing you might want to do if that version starts getting stuck, is to add a stop so the wand can only go so far onto the "wedge". Without the stop, gravity and the slight bouncing from walking will try to force the two parts to wedge further and further together. That's probably what was happening with the old setup.

[@punishedprops]

Great idea!

[@TheSmugglersRoom]

No matter what the venture is guys, we’ll be there waiting and ready!! Glad you guys are doing well.

[@punishedprops]

Thanks so much! You guys are the best. =)

[@jamiebmorton]

Whatever and whenever you release on KZbin will be a fun time for your viewers. I can wholeheartedly recommend the Fusion 360 course. You did a wonderful job in making it accessible for beginners. I’m almost at the end of the Noisy Cricket. I would say after this course I feel confident in designing my own props 😊

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much! It makes me so happy to hear my course has been helpful.

[@cmaddy]

I’m so happy to hear you’re doing well, Bill! Thanks for sharing all this. I’m excited for the new venture. We’re here to support whatever you two get up to next! (Also, heck yeah, Marvel SNAP!)

Awe, thanks so much!

[@George1791-]

@@punishedprops no. Thank you

[@astrophysicistguy]

Great plan! The world of 3D printing is wide open but most people do not have the interest or wherewithal to learn to 3D model at a level where it is useful. However, buying a good 3D printer and making stuff you print is straight forward and allows you to concentrate on learning to become a great painter which is the real trick. There is YTer who has almost 1M subscribers and he builds IronMan Suits but does not know how to 3D model, every model he uses on his channel he gets from someone else. Offering 3D models for people to purchase is the way to go and you can of course offer to sell completed models raw or fully painted. I think there is a market for stuff that is not just the ‘same old props’ that everyone on Etsy is selling …

[@punishedprops]

We are super optimistic about the new venture, it really does seem like people are super hungry for new, creative stuff to print.

[@dozer88finn]

[@markfergerson2145]

You’re not the only KZbinrs to suffer burnout and other issues. Hacksmith and Jairus of all come to mind. I’m not big on therapy myself but if it’s helping you, then it’s helping you. Fewer, shorter videos from you with fewer, farther apart long videos is not a problem. I still haven’t gone through your entire backlog and I doubt most viewers have. Anyone who wants more can peruse that. You have every right to be proud of what you’ve done so far, and I get that you don’t want future quality to suffer. You guys take care of you guys first. We’ll wait.

[@punishedprops]

Oh yeah, I was inspired to share my struggles by James' and other KZbinr's stories stories.

[@garydawson6346]

the shoulder straps go around the ALICE frame tube, the brackets just hold them in place btw.

[@ZeSheshamHahu]

Thank you for the update and I hope you're doing well. I would love to see more informal videos like the old live streams and kitbashing nerf guns videos you did in the past. Some CAD tutorial with some of the models you're making would also be lovely.

[@punishedprops]

I guess we are going to kind of go back to our more old school style a little bit. Looking forward to it!

[@thedoctor755]

Dude.... you gotta do you, gotta take care of the old brain & soul. I can kinda relate: since TFA came out, I have been making Star Wars costumes (primarily pilots & Rebel troopers) for the Rebel Legion, and maybe a handful of 501st. Things slowed WAY down the past year or so, and admittedly I have lost the luster for most of it, and I have been thinking about what else I can make with my sewing machine. The idea of going back to work for someone else is so soul-stripping. So glad you & Britt have figured out another angle for your ventures! And I REALLY need to do your 3D modeling tutorial soon. DragonCon!!! Yes, please bring your busting gear.... it will be the debut of ours! I have a HasLab pack, but I am also in the middle of building a converted Spirit pack for my gal's son with all the bells & whistles. Hoping I have time to do the same to a trap. Hope to see you there, and maybe we can bust some heads! In a spiritual sense of course.

[@punishedprops]

Yeah! Let's bust some ghosts! =D

[@jeffjohnson6763]

[@chrisworsley8836]

Glad to hear from you guys and so glad you are taking care of yourselves. Creator burnout is a very real thing and when combined with the stress of business and bills it can really get to you. Be kind to yourself and don't over do it. We'll still be here when you make a new video.

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much!

[@lewiscausey687]

I've been working on a similar idea but incorporating a longer male side and a female with "fold over" female to encapsulate the male. I found a wrench type tool at work (I want to use as the vhook male) that has a curved to slot that could be added protection by holding the top hook on the Spengler wand. Added security from dropping the wand. I also discovered that an added little "nubby" stop to prevent the male end from wedging all the way into the female vhook makes it easier to release also. I also think if a place was notched out on the back of the female to glue in a small small circular magnet at the wide end of the female, this would help holstering the wand as the magnet would click to steel male. Then the wearer would know, this is where it needs to be, now I can slide it in. I have a video saved I've been trying to show people but I can't get anyone to make the female part like you did.

[@punishedprops]

Sounds like you have a really solid plan and design! Good luck on the build.

[@HabiteerWorkshop]

I don't think any of us have really recovered from 2020, personal my business/mental health were hit unbelievably hard, so i definitely understand the desire ya have Bill to do something different.

[@punishedprops]

I feel ya. Here's hoping we all bounce back.

[@mmcc2852]

really missed the weekly video you guys made! But i fully understand the toll it took on your creative sustainability, very happy for you guys to find a new pace of production that's healthy. i would recommend more collab for sharing actual projects workloads, not collab for swapping audience/subscribers (no shame in that neither, it was what the algorithm encouraged). look forward to seeing what you guy have to offer in the 3d printed kit front of things, as a fellow 3d artist turn fdm hobbyist with some luck on cult3d.

[@punishedprops]

I gotta get back on the road to do some more collabs with all my maker pals. It's definitely in the works.

[@astrophysicistguy]

I bought that same printer about 3 years ago. It’s an amazing printer!

[@punishedprops]

Right on! I know it isn't new, but I'm super impressed with the flexible sheet on the bed. No raft or brim, it just sticks until you need it to not stick. Magical!

[@astrophysicistguy]

@@punishedprops yeah, a lot of people rave about some of the cheaper ones with bigger build plates but there is a lot oif fi filing to make them work well. The PRUSA you just stick in the card & it works every time! I built a complete mandalorian & Bo Katan outfits with it and teh Amban rifle, blaster, vibro blade, 2 westar 35 balsters & on & on.

[@punishedprops]

Ooh neat!

Im going through something similar but in regards to being a dad to an autistic child. I totally get the need to just slow down and reevaluate / redirect.

[@punishedprops]

Thank you so much for the support. =)

[@rageprint9530]

Totally understand swapping out the video style, I had to do similar with mine as shooting, editing and doing the actual work was getting draining. Especially as I'm a one man band! Much prefer the looser shooting style! Your health (and family) should always come first over the KZbin algorithm. 😊 Incredibly tempted to do this v-hook style on my pack when I get around to finishing it!

[@punishedprops]

Right on!

Tip for measuring holes: Measure diameter of one hole. Zero caliper. Measure outside distances of holes w/prongs. You now have hole center distance.

[@punishedprops]

Slick tip! Thanks for sharing.

[@astrophysicistguy]

Really slick mount. I’ve been looking for a way to mount my SMV tri-barrel gamma wave distrupter cannon for a unique cosplay character I’m creating and this may just work - you might know this weapon as the mandalorian heavy infantry tri-barrel but I’ve ‘upgraded’ it a bit … 👽👽

[@SomethingDiabolical2]

Glad you're back. I watch a lot of your older videos every now and then. Just a couple of weeks ago I binge watched a lot of them, for example the build of the proton pack. The most important thing is to always take care of yourselves first.

I got referred to you that one of your videos might help me. I can't find any videos on making Jason's metal mask from Jason X. Would you know how to make it? I want to make his full outfit from Jason X to cosplay in it

I'd love if you did these kits with your vash gun. I want it so bad but don't have access to a 3d printer
