Ok thanks a lot guys, yeah I had a feeling this was already posted before just had trouble looking for it

I have a question, Im planning to start gluing soon but want to make sure of something. I was testing my clamps out on the front of my thigh armor to see how they would be placed when gluing the cover strips when a thought came to mind when Im ready to close the whole thigh armor with the glue, how can I apply pressure in the middle area if my clamps cant reach the middle section of the cover strips? I dont own any earth magnets either so was hoping is there another way in doing this? Also I wanted to know if ABS glue is a suggested type? Since I have that already in hand I was wondering if I should use that? Just wondering because I hear most of you using E6000 ( never even heard of that type of glue till now). Also is both glues removable?

Awesome thanks a lot guys!

Hey everyone! Im sorry if theres another post about this, if so please send me the link to that post and delete this one because I couldn't find a post related to my question. So my question is.....What are the flat visors made out of and is it possible to find the martial at local stores? My reason for asking is so I an start making a "spare parts" box for my Royal Guard and my soon to be done Stormtrooper gear.

Thanks!

Oh ok I was kinda worried there. Well Im going to start the measurements and go from there, what tools should i have on hand? Also.....what are "cover strips?" Is it those white rectangular sheets that the came with the kit? What side should they be applied on (the back half or thew front half)?

Im a bit scared with the whole heating part....Im pretty sure Ill have to do that since Im about your size ( 5'7ish). I have the AM Kit and yeah its pretty big....please continue to post your work as Im a Visual type learner and could benefit from your working ideas

Wow I saw this site a bunch of times, glad I ran into you guys/gals 1st before ask them questions.

Ahh is that bad

Wow those pictures look awesome Id like to be a part of that one day, my guess is not too many like the FX helmets anymore ?? I own a eFX helmet because my head is small...and dont really know how to mod anything without help
