    I do lots of appearances as a clown in public also...

    Although mine are unintentional.

    Teo, is that the handle off a CF-27?

    I used a CF-27 handle for my mom's CF-52 to give it shoulder strap functionality...

    You need to learn your old toughbooks
    It looks like a handle from a CF71

    Thanks, guys! Rob..It is a combination of the three model. The "0" rings are from Cf-27, the base handle is from cf-71 and the main handle is from cf-73. What a combination, eh!, Lol

    I've guess its an advetisement on which it is not allowed here but for the sake of arts and craftsmanship not a crappymanship of some seller on ebay. It will be fine though. This is only my second time to modded a cf-73 coz it take a bit time, patience and effort before you will come up with this kind of setup.

    My time and effort reflect on the price coz it is not easy. It is not as the same as plug n' play and then go for $995.00/$1,295.00, lol
    I even bought a 2 part rubber mixture for the antena base to make it much better looking guy on the block.
