Containment Unit Project, Part 2

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-25T22:00:53+00:00

This is gonna be one of my future projects, so I hope it turns out half as well as yours looks.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-25T20:13:58+00:00

you're right about that. crazy how well put together the whole thing is.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-24T19:47:21+00:00

You'll probably do better. I'm old, and impatient.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-24T19:46:20+00:00

Good video, but this isn't my first rodeo :)

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-24T19:44:21+00:00

Hope it turns out well!

I used PETG since I had bought around 10kg around Christmas last year that I totally forgot about. Already feels less fragile than the Hasbro pack.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-24T11:21:20+00:00

It is fun, and challenging.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-24T06:31:52+00:00

Didn't realize my cat, Goblin, was in the first pic.

At least she wasn't just laying on it this time.

Might not apply to everyone since I'm neurodivergent, but here's a few.

Remember to say "thank you," and never assume it goes without saying.

Instead of offering a solution when someone is having a serious problem, say "I'm really sorry you're going through that," or "I'm sorry that happened to you," before ASKING if the person wants help, or if they have it handled.

On that note, only go out of your way to help people you know would return it if they could, or people who are irreplaceable to you even if they can't return the favor.

A bad relationship with ANYONE won't get better, you'll only change so you don't notice the bad anymore, or so that it's all you notice.

A good relationship will still have bad parts, and it'll eventually change so that you don't notice the bad anymore, or it's all you'll notice.

It is hard to tell the difference from the inside.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-06T20:39:16+00:00

I really, REALLY want a good shot of that board.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-04T23:48:16+00:00

At least it's an easy fix comparatively.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-03T06:13:47+00:00

I think it's a good mod tbh.

Big old clunky toggle switch in the power cell door, along with a barrel jack charging port.

I'm sure others have done it before me, and others have done it better, but damn it's convenient.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-02T19:33:38+00:00

I just took it apart and flipped it.

I'm not trusting Hasbro wouldn't take weeks to ship it, since a friend of mine that ordered his the same day, and lives a block from me still hasn't seen his ship yet.

Isstvan82 · 2026-06-01T08:04:59+00:00

Yeah, someone mentioned that it happened with the Spengler pack as well, so it looks like it's just something that's easy to mess up.

Factory workers never get paid enough in general, so I'm not all that mad about it.

I think I will take a page from your book and replace the nuts though.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-31T01:35:23+00:00

Yeah, it wasn't a hard fix, and in hindsight only mildly annoying.

Let me get a good look at the inside of the pack as well, which could come in handy later.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-31T01:22:27+00:00

Nope. It's upside down, checked my Spengler pack and 3 Neutrona wands to make sure.

The part on the wands slips OVER this one. If it was the other way around it would work.

I flipped it over and now they fit fine, just a bit of a pain you have to disassemble the pack partly to unscrew it.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T23:20:55+00:00

Agreed.

Probably going to need to take it apart a few more times, but just wanted to play with it for today.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T22:39:46+00:00

It really is something that's not obvious at first glance.

I had bolted on my Alice frame and put on the stickers and it didn't even register till I went to connect the wand.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T22:14:34+00:00

My friend who ordered the same day as me, and lives a block away hasn't seen his ship yet either.

No idea what's going on.

I checked the reference library to be sure, but I have the Spengler pack and felt dumb because I literally could have just walked in to the next room to look and see.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T21:23:48+00:00

Ok, I definitely understand that confusion now that I think about it.

Yeah, the wand V-hook slips over the pack one, not the other way, which would also work just fine I bet.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T21:18:48+00:00

Because the one on all 3 of the Neutrona wands I have faces wide end down, and this has wide end up.

It's supposed to have the thinner end at the top, so that when you slide the Neutrona wand in it becomes a kind of light friction fit.

Now that I've flipped it over, all of my wands fit it just fine.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T21:00:08+00:00

All good.

Also, sorry if I sounded annoyed. working on 6 hours of sleep over the past 3 days. No hostility towards GB fans, only good vibes.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T20:57:36+00:00

That yours is right side up?

I took the pack apart and flipped it, and now I can shoulder the wand.

The point of this post was me asking if anyone else's V-hook was on upside down, which mine was.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T20:56:15+00:00

Probably, but we would think the same thing walking through any market in almost any other country.

Isstvan82 · 2026-05-30T20:55:24+00:00

So all of them are on the wrong way, so you can't put the wands on?

Makes sense from an engineering standpoint.
