Hey, I needed some way to hang it.
After what, I think, is three years of building Ghostbusters Proton Packs for sale, I kept one for myself (I've posted pictures of it in previous posts). It's been leaning against a chair in my office since we got back from our Halloween night party and I've been contemplating how best to either store or display it.
Hence the birth of another (small) crazy-Eric project: a wall-mount/wall charger. I wanted something more than just straight hooks, I wanted the piece to look cool even if the pack wasn't hanging from it. And, best-case scenario, like it was functional. The build took an afternoon and used a number of resin pieces and defective pulls that can't be sold. The LEDs are non-functional and the hooks are coat hooks from Home Depot (about $5 for the two of them). All-in-all, I'm pleased with the end result.
