This was actually a lent brush that I stripped and I will start modifying it more soon, but it is perfect for the PKE meter especially for a buck. Stay tuned for progress.<img src=\"http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s252/brettfields/000_0022.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

I don't know if you're going for a screen accurate look or not, but if you are, I thought you might like to see this...<a href=\"http://cgi.ebay.com/Ghostbusters-PKE-meter-kit-prop_W0QQitemZ180493488019QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2a06400f93\" target=\"_blank\">http://cgi.ebay.com/Ghostbusters-PKE-meter...=item2a06400f93</a>I'm not sure if this is the same guy but I see these pieces all the time on eBay and most of the time they're unpainted. I've seen several people take and make fully functional PKE meters using this housing. Anyway, I just thought I'd make you aware of it if you weren't already.-Joseph

I cant open the ebay link here but if it is the fiberglass shell I've seen it. It is a cast of an Iona shoe polisher sp-1 which is what was used. What I am using is the same height and almost the same width. I plan on making it wider and more round in spots that are inaccurate to make it look like the Iona. I am still working on it, the proton pack is getting near completion. The lights are all soldered down to their respective boards and now I just need to solder down the switches and the sound board and then mount them in the pack and it's good to go!
