I drew that back in ‘15. But I believe I threw the M19 scope on there. That’s the scope used in ESB I believe. The M40 and M38’s were used for ANH.
feel free to correct me since it’s been 5 years since I did the research on those.

That's what it looks like when I post the image link from photobucket.

I believe it's my posting settings.

Additionally, all of that code stuff leads me to believe that you're posting in Safari in an Apple product. I feel you go to the top of the browser page before you post, and you hold your finger on the "refresh" symbol (the 3/4 circle with the arrow point on one end), a pop up will appear that says "Request Full Desktop Site." If you select that option, you won't wind up with all of those code characters in your posts.

Yup. That's what I was doing. Thank you sir.

I asked Locitus for help to maybe fix my posting settings.

December 7, 2016

So, yes. Lol

I do.

December 7, 2016

Well, I think my post settings are messed up. It won't let me embed my photos from the host (Photobucket). When I choose the IMG link to embed the photos it just goes all weird.

You can see in my post all that <be><be> stuff. I think that's for coding but I'm no IT guy.

I'm requesting ESB, EIB status.

My armor and helmet are ATA. My E11 is a printed kit by Master Blaster that I built. I also fabricated theESB greebles and have the correct scope mounted on it.

I don't know why I can't post my EIB request. I thought I've been approved for posting for a long time?

August 14, 2015

Looking great so for Jeff!!!

August 14, 2015

Beautiful work Jeff. Love to see it in person.

July 7, 2015

I made these drawings taking measurements from an actual British Sterling. The measurements are 1:1 if printed out to where the 1" in the bottom right corner measures an actual inch.

If your interested, I can email the printable PDF of this file.

May 23, 2015

Great thread brother.

February 10, 2015

Here's my build of Walts kit on MEPD brother.

http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?showtopic=12260&page=1

Hope it helps!ðŸ˜ƒ

February 8, 2015

Great stuff! The vids are really informative. Thanks for sharing brother.

January 9, 2014

Fantastic. What a thorough thread. Lots of hard work pays off in the end with a smile...

thanks brother. She is very excited and happy.

January 8, 2014

For now she'll just sport a TK. Once I get the pauldron made by Pandatrooper, the pack made by Dirtyboy and I build the mini T-21 I'll turn her into a proper Sandtrooper.

SAMI TROOPER!!!!

Happy little rocker!

Belt.

I measure her waist with the armor on. You want the belt to be a bit tight in order to help hold it all together. I use white canvas and cut it to length I mark out my other measurements on the edge go the canvas. The overall width will be 5". I leave .25" on the top and bottom for sewing. Then 2" for final belt width with .5" in between for sewing.

I the cut very thin plastic in 2" strips. I put this inside the belt for strength.

First I hem the ends. I sew right through the plastic.

Then I sew the top of the belt.

I close up the ends.

Then I fold one edge of the belt over the plastic and sew it.

Then I fold under the other edge and sew it.

I put a 2" x4" Velcro on one end. On the other side I put the receiving side.

I sew them to the belt for added strength.

Attaching the ammo belt to the cloth belt I first drill in middle of the piece in between the center two rectangles.

Then at both ends.

Then I drill in the middle of the cloth belt.

I then rivet them together through the center holes. I used a plastic retainer to keep the rivet from going through the cloth.

Then I straighten the cloth belt along the plastic and drill through where I first drilled. Then rivet with a retainer.

Now I attach the drop box''. Sandtroopers skip this step.

I just glue them on the inside of the belt by the outer rivet retainers.

Neck seal. I measure her neck. Circumference and length from shoulder next to neck upto the bottom of her jaw.

I transfer the measurements to a piece of pleather with batting glued to the back of it.

I cut it and a respective piece of cotton out.

I also cut out a piece of the same cotton cloth about 10x11". Using something called math I find the circle I need to cut out of the center.

I cut the circle out. Then hem the edges of the square.

I turn the pleather and cotton wrong side out and sew around the edge.

Turned right side out.

I start sewing parallel lines down the length of the pleather. Just estimate the distance between the ribs. I just tried to make it look right. I think there's supposed to be 7 ribs.

I cut the square in the middle from the edge to the circle. I hem one edge the sew a 1" strip to the other side so that it overlaps the other side.

Now I sew the collar to the "dicky". I sew them so the seam will be inside when tuned right.

Just working it around slowly so it follows the circle.

Now I attach Velcro on each end of the collar.

Thermal detonator is attached to the belt using two clips.

I start with 4" long .5" wide strips of 1/8" thick aluminum.

I drill one end and bend them like this.

I put the clip about .25" away for the bottom of the control plate. I drill through the hole I already drilled into the pipe.

I revet it.

Then I bend the strip around the pipe.

Then I drill another hole through metal and PVC.

I rivet that hole. Then bend the metal over.

Strapping.

There are a few ways to strap up armor. Walt (Rottie) suggested I use Velcro instead of buttons for some of the strapping so that the armor can "grow" with the kid. That's the way I'm doing this armor.

The chest plat needs some elastic on the shoulders. I use 2" white elastic and cut 1.25" strips.

I use a flame to seal the edges to prevent fraying.

Now I put glue on the backplate.

Put the strap on and clamp with magnets.

Then put one side of the Velcro on the strap.

The receiving Velcro goes inside the chest plate strap end.

Attach the kidney plate to the butt plate.

Cut a piece of 1" black webbing

Seal the ends.

Glue all four ends to the kidney and butt plate. These won't need to be adjustable.

I use tape to clamp it.

Attaching the back plate to the kidney plate. I use strips of black webbing. I glue one end to the backplate and use Velcro to attach to the kidney plate.

Codpiece to the butt plate. I use a strip of the black webbing. I glue one end to the codpiece and a Velcro end to secure the butt plate.

Attaching the front to the back. I use a piece of 3" elastic on each side. I glue one end to the ab plate. I don't use glue until about 1" from the edge to allow for play.

The chest plate has decorative shoulder straps that cover the elastic ones. I just Velcro them on. Sandtroopers don't have theses.

Attaching the chest plate to the ab plate I use the 1" black webbing. I glue one end to the chest plate using tape to clamp. The other end attaches to the ab plate using Velcro.

For the shoulder bells I just glue a strip of webbing to the underside of the white elastic strap. Then use Velcro to attach the shoulder bell to the strap.

Attach the biceps to the shoulder bells using the black 1" webbing. I glued one end to the bicep and Velcro the other inside the shoulder bell.

Attach the thighs using the black 1" webbing. Glue one end into the thigh and attach the other to the inside of the codpiece using Velcro.

Now the calves or grieves. I put white Velcro to seal the opening. One on the inside edge of the cover strip and the receiving on the outside edge of the facing

I strap the drop boxes with black webbing. I glue one end to the box and glue the other to the belt with about .5 - .75" gap between the box and the belt.

Sandtroopers do not have drop box'.

Hand plates are attached using a combo of 1"black elastic looped and glued inside the plate and a piece of Velcro.

January 1, 2014

Oh, also, Rick is the MAN when it comes to packs!!! I've got one of his that I'm so proud of I get complements constantly! And from what I've seen his kid packs are just as amazing. I'm very excited to order Sams soon.

As for boots, I found these

http://www.buystarwarscostumes.com/child_white_boots.html

Not movie accurate and I will need to cut the top off of them but they are close.

I'd love to find some better ones.

January 1, 2014

Thanks Walt. I'm going to cover a belt build during the torso strapping. I was going to make a custom pauldron because Sam wants a pink one but if you can get someone to do a run that would be great! and T-21's, I'm in the process. If people like what they see I will be glad to take interest on a run.

I'm so glad you covered Underarmor and gloves! I've got my kiddos on dance ware and will now be changing that!!!
