I'm in!

Got a good amount of trimming done today. Nothing like the smell of dremeled ABS!

i dont want to mess up anyone's team, i just want to play. if you get or know more people to make another team that would be cool thanks!

Rusty we should have done a Makaze team. I posted on the boards that I want to play so if anyone else needs a team mate for droid hunt let me know.

I have heard they are having a problem with getting the leather for the boots and were trying to find another source.

i have a conversion and if you do the little extras on it they look really good. for the riggers of everyday trooping i think that is the best option. in case something happens you are out the least amount of money.

the only pieces you really need to tape fit are arms and legs. the other pieces you really can go ahead and strap together in the verticle. if you look at pics your pieces should "lay" on top of the next piece at certain points. to attach front to back you will need help holding things in place to get the right length of strap. you will still probably have to adjust a couple of times after you have it together, we all do. good luck

good luck! when in doubt on anything, take a pic and post to get advice.

I have not but I have had the same issue with other sellers. I was told that until pp knows the item was delivered the funds will not officially transfer. When my wife sold a phone through ebay, pp showed that the seller had payed but didn't release the funds to her until item was marked received.

Trust us, once you get approved all your concerns and questions will go away. Good luck on your build!

Are they butt seamed with cover strips? If they are you will have to take them apart, shim them (add armor between the pieces to make them bigger), then put on new cover strip. Only do this on the back sides so that the front sides still look accurate. This is the biggest problem buying someone else's armor, especially if they are smaller than you. Good luck!

Just fyi, the wand on the dremel makes life a lot easier. Good luck!

I wear the same size as you and got the 11's. I put inserts in them and wear thick socks and still have room in them. I am glad I didn't get the 12's cause they would fall off. Just my opinion and observation.

1. I would recommend attaching you biceps to your shoulder bells. This will keep them from turning, as they are in your pics, and will keep the shoulderbell overlapping the bicep as it should do. You probably need to get rid of a little more of the return edge on the shouderbells where they lay against the biceps. 2. Like stated you need to trim the back piece on the sides just like ur going to do on the chest piece. 3. As far as your chest/shoulder strap problem, it is because your chest piece is riding up too high. Without seeing it in person, I can only assume it is do to the way you attached the strap to the chest and back plates.

score and snapping works best on long straight pieces. you can do it on shorter, curved areas but you need to cut relief cuts every inch or so. what you said you did is always good practice as well.
