  1. The most important part is having fun while doing it. If it starts to get bad, put it down for a few days, vent here, and pick it back up. You got a good garrison there to help as well.
  2. Honestly a 3rd snap won't make that much of a difference. You're going to have it tight around you plus the velcro in the back.
  3. Ok, let's get this sucker strapped now.
  4. You're a lucky man! So if you're not into football we should expect your submission photos by Sunday night?
  5. I've seen a few people do triple snaps. I tried to do the traditional 2 s-snaps but they didn't work for me and got replaced with regular snaps.
  6. Looks correct to me. The important part is making sure you got the right pieces. I think someone accidentally was sent two of the same pieces and that's where a bunch of confusion started. You wear your knee plate so much higher than I do. But I'm short and if mine were high like yours I couldn't walk.
  7. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/28321-sure-fire-am-20-shin-identification/ Check this out. This is the easiest way to tell the difference.
  8. I got frustrated several times during my build. Boiling point was having to order a different set of legs from AM2.0
  9. Don't forget to save your scraps for ABS paste.
  10. Well that's reassuring. I was gonna have to send you my MTK one if you really goofed.
  11. I'll have to take some photos of mine but I don't have any issue with my AM2.0 shins. I followed that one tutorial to show how to identify the proper pieces by looking at the angles at the top
  12. Hey Aaron, looks like you cut all the flashing off your ab button plate. You're suppose to leave some on. Check out Kendall's Hero thread to show you what the plate should look like: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/31848-kredals-anh-hero-build-am2/?p=415577
  13. I can do that with S snaps but Tandy Line 24 I am not able to.
  14. Yep, you'll have to drill it out, very slowly so it doesn't melt through. Then fill it with ABS paste. Ditch those instructions from Anovos and follow ukswrath's thread.
  15. Yep, Tony is a smart dude. I call him Trooper Dad.
  16. Check out ukswrath's build thread. Not the Anovos one. I followed his tutorial and method to do my belt
  17. On your long straight pieces like your thighs and forearms, you should clamp a metal ruler down and use your exacto against that to score and snap a clean line. You'll have to do that for your cover strips too.
  18. Would it be possible to configure an adrino in your helmet to control the lights and fan? 2 birds with one stone kind of thing? Will be watching for your updates
  19. Are you not using a metal ruler as a guide?
  20. You might even be able to trim some off the kidney plate.
  21. Now you see me, now you don't. Great job!
  22. Got a long ways to go but you're on the right track.
  23. Get yourself a cheap facemask or use a bandanna, coughing up abs dust isn't fun
  24. Both are good. Trooperbay is legit so don't worry. I got my neckseal from the ongoing sales thread here though.
