I don't have an answer as such to your problem but I am sure you can leave them on for Centurion as the word ideally is used as quoted below so it's not compulsory. "Ideally there should be no visible rivets or brads used to secure the sniper plate to the left greave."

Are you talking about the cover strips where the clam parts close? If you are then on the original suits it varied from one leg to the other or even from the top of one leg to the bottom. On the thighs and shins it should be between 21 - 23mm but a 25mm strip on the back of the shins where they are left open. For the biceps and forearms it should be between 13 - 15mm

and you missquoted me. I said Try Quoting "if it's not broke" to mr TM not that he would think earth magnets are a good idea. Sorry to steal your playground thunder Matt.

I think it is totaly related as it's little tweeks that people come up with like this that can make something better. This is the way of the world and thankfully its full of inovaters. If you want to stick to the same old same old then you go ahead but don't hold back someones "effort" to progress even if it isn't going to be considered a "fix" without trial there is no error and to be honest, nothing is really broken untill someone fixes it as usualy its just a "better" way of doing the same thing that we then see as a "fix" As for the magnets being a health issue, this made me laugh. I think someone has just spread a thought they had one night while lying in bed or sitting on the toilet with no background evidance to support. the iron in the blood is not just stray iron molecules, but rather iron that has been biochemically bonded into the blood cells and is no longer directly affected by magnetic forces The effects on the blood by magnets are subtle and indirect so I wouldn't worry about this. I would worry more about carrying your mobile phone in your pocket next to your crown jewels.

In all due respect, if everyone followed this rule where would we be? Probably back in the stoneage. Try Quoting this to mr TM.

Make youself a Duct Tape mannequin to your own proportions and size.

Could always get youself a TK Case. -----------

Wow, I couldn't hit that return key fast enough when I paid for my TM. no doubts in my mind.

Here is my transportation/storage ----------

Your order must have been in the same shipped batch as mine. Mine arrived this morning and I'm well happy with mine too. They are a bit longer than the old ones apparently. They are the most comfortable set of footwear I own. I may be uncomfortable in the armour but at least my feet will be happy.
