  16. If all else fails, and you can’t find the ideal bubble lenses, use whatever bubbles you got for approval purposes. Switch out with flat lenses for trooping because the safety of yourself and your armored costume takes precedence. No need to take unnecessary risks of tripping/falling and hurting yourself and breaking expensive plastic parts. it’s just not worth it.
  17. Did you drill a small hole at the end of the crack on the plastic, so it doesn't expand (stop drill method)? Did you apply an ABS backing or some backing material with plastic welder or epoxy on the underside of the armor for reinforcement?
  18. I like the way your fiberglass resin bucket turned out. I am contemplating getting one for myself to do a Skytrooper bucket (v2.0). I’d prefer working with that material than ABS. There are a few features offhand I’d have to redo completely to meet LvL 3 standards, e.g. ear bump structure, but overall, I think it would achieve the look I really want.
  19. Welcome to FISD Paul!
