Recently, out of boredom, I was inspired to make something. “How 'bout some ghostbusting equipment?” I thought. Great. But what exactly would I make? Wouldn't a film accurate proton pack be a little too hard?…. “Probably. Well how ‘bout a RGB ghost trap then? That’s simple, right?” Okay. But make it with what? All I got is some measley cardboard, and some scissors and crap… Who cares? It's better than nothing… Just do it." Alright then…..

And so I made that RGB ghost trap. And finally, after hours of tedious labour, spraypainting, etc., that ghost trap is finished….

Although I couldn't find some things like yellow tubing, overall I think it came out pretty accurate looking. And I also have to thank Ben Otto & Paul Rudoff for the reference pictures.

Holy heck, that is awesome. I was looking at it thinking, yeah right some of it can't be cardboard, but it is! Great job! Awesome colouring too.

Yeah, but those aren't very accurate… at all. Plus, what's the fun in all that?!

Well the handle is wooden. So are some of the buttons. But the vast majority of it is cardboard yeah. Thanks for the compliment…
