I have roughly a size 10 1/2 foot and bought a size 11 TK boot...with a set of Dr Scholl's inners and thick black socks they fit very comfortably...I preferred to not have my toes go all the way to the end of the boot and get squashed together...the inside of my boot measures 11 3/4 inches from heel to toe...
I'm 43 and probably won't start trooping for another few months yet....Maybe we can start an over 40s niche ...You're only as old as you feel...and thanks to ABS and rubber gloves I can't really feel a darned thing in this armor !!!!.....Maybe we can put the 40 into 401K !!!
Great job with the paintwork ...What number size brush are you using ? I went with stickers on mine but I really like how yours turned out...I might hand paint my next bucket...or purchase one like Matthias suggests and keep it as screen accurate bucket that I display....
I agree with this idea to use the site as a instruction - how to....and assembling one for yourself first will give you firsthand knowledge of any little nuances and "things to pay attention to" when assembling the blaster. Vern is a great source for blaster info..... I'm looking forward to Buying American...!
Vern,
How much do you sell your ANH holster kit for ? I do not currently have a blaster...I am waiting on Darth Vorhees to finish his blaster kit first...
I'd be down for sending a deposit if the funds will help you....If your end price on all this is around $100 or so you'll be making your money back mighty fast....
