Great job Wood Chuck! Glad you made it in. .

Great Job Tom! Heres to you and all your help Your Friend Patrick

Lets see a pic with the helment and under thingy just like the patch or I can wait for April. Thanks

Don't everyone thank me at once. Its been a tough build and now its almost complete feel free to ask questions or comment on something. The ab buttons will be painted last, so if you need more pics or any advice just ask. Thanks, Patrick DeVoe

Been busy with the strapping but its almost complete. Have a look it's time to celebrate :pint1: :dancing-trooper: :dancing-trooper: E.I.B. Status coming soon.....

Try "Tricktoys" internet site they carry them as well.

January , Febuary and now March. I have been overwhelmed with work, working endless weekends. Today I will applie the strapping and by Sunday hopefully put a end to this build. Next I will be adding fans to the bucket and post some fresh pics.

Thanks Paul! Its been a Great "5" Years.

Looks like he's melting... Great job Cake maker.

Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Gotta love the holidays. Ok I have some pics to post I just need a new camera. Stand by......

I'm sold! Now I can clean and have fun while keeping the wife happy.

Gluing in the snaps and taping to secure them in place and clamps to hold. I waited until this morning to remove the clamps and tape. Here are this weekends photos of the glued in snaps. This was really fun, more snaps and fittings next week until then, Happy Thanksgiving Troopers!

Well they were made of ABS strips that were scrap. So Yes and Yes .

Thats just wrong, unless you are in it.

It's a Snap! Edges now smooth time to glue these in and work on the belt.

Oh Snap! This is what I have completed tonight so far, now time to smooth the edges.

Besure to use E-6000 for your glue and some good clamps. The dremel is a Clone and TK's best tool used for trimming and the tight spots you have to get into. I also can't wait to get this completed so I can add a MP3 with TK chatter, along with my ROM-FX. I'm going all out on this one, Static burst, tk chatter all the stuff the Clones couldn't have.

Hey John, Thanks BTW the "ANH" Hero and Stunt did not have rivets holding the sniper knee plate on. Nerther did "ESB", since the TK armor was re-used from EP4 to EP5. It's a great dremel as well but its Toms "RogueTroopers" Dremel, I have a cordless dremel its pretty cool too.

Just got my neckseal the other day from TK-409 Chris B. only took a week, fast turn around time. Looks great and well made, what do you troopers think? After this first test fitting with just blue masking tape holding it together, will be gluing the snap plates in tonight, also here a pic of the sniper knee plate glued to the shin, no rivets just like the screen used "ANH armor/ suits".

First "TEST FITTING". This is going along better than I hoped, Sniper plate now glued to the knee and cover strips glued to the thighs. Working on the snaps now, this is very close to being completed.

Ok so I'm lacking on photos, but this is what I'm doing after work. Cleaning up the excess glue on the cover strips and what an adventure this has been. This is tedious work for sure. I have used my teeth, nails and a dry cloth to remove the glue. Cover strips look so much better with the excess glue removed, now on to more tedious work the snaps... Special Thanks to Tom AKA RougeTrooper for all his help.

Sorry I had to take a week off, My son returned from the Army and now is enrolled in college studing to be a medical assitant. Thanks to SuperTrooper for the fast turn around time on the new thermal caps . Ok so cover strips have been glued to the forearms and biceps also thighs and shins have been sized and glued. Once dried I'll post pictures, till then have a great Sunday.

Mystery solved! "Loctite will fracture all stress points in vacumed formed plastic"... Now I need 2 caps, both now have cracks in them, Lol Note: Let the loctite dry before placing caps on Thermo Detonator. Ok so now we all learned something.

More work done this Saturday, Have alook then theres a suprize at the end... This is all fun and I enjoy building this TK. I was shocked the next morning by what I saw but hey it happens . Enjoy the build, I know I have. Adding the clips and loctite to the clips. Front thighs glued. Shins, forearms and biceps closed. Woke up to find my thermal detonator cap busted.

Its all good and fun! I enjoy building and have a great time every summer doing this. Now Its time for some more pics.
