Best CF-30 Mod EVER!

EVER!!! Finally I got my little rings in today from heartland (after the big order of coarse lol). Anyways, I finally have a new power rubber, new USB rubber and now new rings to I can just throw my toughbook over my shoulder! YEAH!

Part #: DFMD9104ZA

 

wow, how much are those? Let me know on your next order I want to order some of those

 

They were expensive as hell... They are $3.63/each... I donno if you could afford these... .

 

A useful mod!

I wanted the rings that mount at the rear of some CF-29s, but alas they do not work with a MkV! With a large camera sling around your neck and a Velcro loop around the front of your belt it could be used a s an impromptu mobile desk!

 

My employee has a Mark 2 CF-29with those rings...

 

Yeah I got a CF-29 MK2 with the rings very useful

 

I should change the title to,
Easiest Cf-30 mod EVER ! lol



Alex

 

Rob, any chance of getting these strap rings to work in a mk5?? I don't see provision for mounting, unlike the 18 which has 'em in all four corners.

 

good evening gentlemen, Ron.. all cf-29 has provision for d ring. On MK4 and MK5 it was cover only by a thin plastic covering. Make an inspection on the two corner at the back and you will see the screw hole on it. If you need those d ring let me know. I have an spare here. Its a bit worn but in good condition.

Teo, ah... that's where the sucker is!! Great!!

I don't want my 29 to take another drop. The last time it did was when the bag's clip broke and landed near the expressway's service shoulder. 29 fell out of the bag and was ran over by a Benz sedan, I think, and what appeared to be a Datsun pickup truck with two passengers in the rear.

Sustained moderate damage... some deep scratches to the bottom covers, from the asphalt, and a cracked touchscreen panel that was replaced with a non-touch from Alex. Not a crack on the lid or anywhere else and still work as expected.

My extra Targus shoulder strap will work well with the rings, so yeah, I'll buy that but pleeeaaassee.... don't be like Alex, who hasn't gotten back on how much to paypal him. I will feel terrible like a leech and I don't know what to give back to folks with more TB stuffs than I do.

Many thanks & keep well.
Ron in SG

 

Ok! just send me your complete address thru pm and i will send it to you.

I have started saving all my old teeth for you Ron
When I have enough teeth I plan on sending them to you to modify into a smile


Alex

 

Alex, I've done lots of unconventional stuffs in the lab but ... THAT's something I've not tried before!!! There's a positive note to being fully edentulous... one can still whistle while brushing... their dentures!

Teo, you have PM.

Ron in SG... not looking forward to Lunar New Year... the most expensive occasion for Asians.

 

OK, I'll give, where???



If Teo or anyone else can show me, I am in the market for a pair myself! I want to put my mobile desk idea to practical use!

 

My CF-27 has them I guess the slots in the corner bumpers on my cf-28 serve the same purpose.

 

Azrael, see attachment

Remove the plastic (they are glued)

 

Thanks!

Damn! I would have sworn that was metal! I even looked close at it after reading this thread! I just assumed that they quit taping them after a while!

Well who have a pair of D-rings they want to sell me?

 

Azrial, betcha' smart that you couldn't find it when it was right under ya nose!! Well... you aren't alone in that respect. I did a triple take before prying around for that darn screw.

Ron in SG
learning something new... again

 

Ron,....Your d ring is on its way. All screws included. I managed to sneak a few minute from my work this afternoon. I sent it regular mail and I don't know how many days it will take. FYI

Az..l, as Ron said, its under your nose., Lol. Anyway, I still have an spare of those ring but two screws are missing supose to be four. If you are interested just send me your complete address thru pm and i will send it to you.

I am afraid it is time for me to admit that I finally need glasses! But by looking at the picture of that H3lpMedic had posted of his Mk4 in the for sale section, I knew exactly were they went and have looked at that spot many times, even though of drilling and tapping for a QD rifle swivel there! I would have bet money that there were no holes there!

Thanks Teo, you have mail! I can find the missing screws!

 

Many thanks!! If you and Alex aren't gonna drop me a figure to Paypal, I'll have to come up with something to reciprocate the goodwill. Hmm... what do I have up my sleeves...

*looks around... and return the thread to Rob*

 

LOL! RON! Alex does this to me too... I've paid him back now though

Thanks for returning the thread to me!...

Azrial - you're stupid...

 

Yeah, but that is OK. By your definition, so was Einstein.

I doubt that he had the gestalt insight, without someone actually telling him, that a painted over plastic decal hid a threaded hole...

This is a pretty marginal thing for you to hang your hat on, while seeking validation...

 

For as long as I'm getting extra mileage from my TBs and/or make them more functional, I don't care who laugh at me. Besides, I'm gonna get me some rings!! Yippee!!

 

OKAY! I just placed the order for heartland today. I ordered 6 of the CF-30 rings. Whoever wants two/each please PM me. THey are on backorder again and have gone up in price.

6 x DFMD9104ZA – CF-30 Rings - $4.27 – On back order
