  4. Posting the link is acceptable.
  5. cold and damp days are not ideal for painting. A nice warm dry day with no wind is great for painting.
  6. That was me. I usually just pull the chips out of the casings and mount them. The chin is a great spot, nice and roomy.
  7. You also dont want to hold the can so far away that it begins to dry before it hits the helmet. That will cause a grainy finish. A good paint job is one step away from a run. I paint within 6 inches and I make thick coats.
  8. Is that red velvet?...it looks like red velvet....red velvet tastes good.

  10. That is quite possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen...

  12. Thats a nice set of armor bro! Welcome to the FISD!
  13. C'mon where's your sense of adventure?
  14. I like a subtle bump, but some helmets are done so poorly that they look like they are winking.
  15. yeah the AP is over exaggerated, take a heat gun to it and smoothe it down a little.
  16. A most excellent tutorial!
  17. Vader Daves buttons are the best! The top half looks great, take your time on the thighs, properly taper them and it will look great.

  19. I hear most folk use money clips from Staples Office Supplies. I just used thin steel sheeting that I cut and shaped and then rivited it to the O2 tank. I also threw in some industrial velcro to make sure the canister stays put.
  20. Very nice looking counter, what would say you have invested in the counter in materials and time?
  21. Ok I got my wireless kits yesterday and installed the recievers and vox unit in the chest plate. Today I started in helmet testing with the mics and transmitters. It works perfectly and far as connectivity goes. But the mic that came with it has a very low sensitivity. So it doesnt pick up my voice 100% its choppy. I'm gonna try a powered mic and see if that helps any.
  22. My wireless kits came in today and I installed one with my Wal-Mart Voice changer in the chest plate. I'll get pics up as soon as I can. I need to install the mics and transmitters in my helmets still. I've already tested one unit out and it works like a charm. The transmitters are on the same frequency so all I have to do is swap helmets. Then I coiled up the antenna on the reciever and only have a range of about 5 ft away so that means less possibility of the reciever picking up something its not supposed to. I'll get it mounted in the helmets tomorrow. I think I'm gonna call it "Wally Wi-Fi"
