TK Keith

Happy (belated) Birthday! I love the blaster you built for me!

Congrats Reza!

I'm not in the market for new armor at the moment, but I enjoyed reading the descriptions and learning more about the types of armor. Thanks Andy!

Hi Vince! Your build is looking good! I am not an ESB TK expert, but here is a bit of feedback 1) The gap between the sides should be ok. There is a minimum distance for EIB, but I don't think there is one for basic level. 2) I have used rust-oleum spray paint on elastic first with success. I applied adhesion promoter first though. There may be better solutions out there for you, but I wanted to share. 3) It looks like you have the darker blue ab buttons. These could work to get you approved, but I know a lot of troopers are using a lighter blue now. This is what I used: http://trooperbay.com/humbrol-french-blue-14/ Again, nice job on your build!

Wow, that's cool!

Glad you stayed away from ebay.... a longer wait to get a good kit is well worth it. Good luck with your build, and be sure to do plenty of research while you are waiting for your armor to arrive!

Vince- I am glad you are posting pics and getting feedback to your Q's. Keep plugging away buddy!

... nice.

From what I have heard, the trooper made a copy of the video and has contacted law enforcement. I sure hope they prosecute for assault!

Hope you had fun. Any cool pics to share?

No major repairs needed so far, so my maintenence time has been limited. Some light polishing and wiping down after each troop which may take 10 minutes or so.

I am pretty slim too. I cut down my thighs a fair amount so I wouldn't have to pad them. I did end up padding my forearms a little so they wouldn't constantly be rotating and flopping around.

Congrats in participating in this event! I have never walked that much in my TK boots, but on one troop I was standing for about 12 hours and my feet definitely got tired and sore!

Good luck! I try to use E6000 as much as possible so that I can take things apart if needed.

Nice job everyone. I think it is important for us to remember that we are ambassador's for the entire Legion when we are out in public, so I appreciated seeing that point made in the newsletter. We want to make sure that we stay everyone's favorite badguys!

Cool! I used to play paintball a little bit... makes me want to give this a try!

Wow, that looks great! I just wrap mine in a pillow case. It's the last thing into the bin.

I've seen the shorter version of this before, but this was my 1st time seeing the extended version. Needless to say, I showed it to my students immediately!

This was a fun event, and my first time trooping in my ID. Thanks for sharing the pics on FISD Reza!

Sounds fun. Wish I lived a bit closer!

It'd be worth it if they wanted extras!

Absolutely! I should invest in that stuff!

I have to admit, I am a bit jealous!
