Welcome Dan, there are lots of threads here to help you with your build. Also there are videos on youtube , but always feel free to ask any question you have with your build because we are here to help a brother or sister.

I use the screw on method.

Vey nice, well done trooper.

some very cool artwork there.

No strapping holding the cod peices together.

Not sure about this one, fiberglass really!..what bucket is that?

Welcome Duane, great job on the bucket, looking forward to seeing your progress. Remember don't be to afraid to ask us any questions.

congrats, it looks great.

I like clatter also, even though you can be seasoned at this you still can learn something new from the clatter.

i used an s.o.s pad with warm water and patience, it worked.

that's not the bucket your'e looking for.

good work.

You have to hunt around to find the abs in your area, check with larger hardware strores. As for a bucket I would do it in the way I have seen it done several diffferent pieces. You probably get a sharper and more defined shape. I could be wrong but check out all the tutorials you can get your hands on. You really don't want to make to much of an expensive mistake, especially if you don't have lots of funds to try.

I used E6000

thanks glen

Looks great!

nice armor i have an FX suit as well, I want to build that sound machine, very cool.

Nice work on the bucket.

Derek is right there are numerous threads and tutorials all over the place. Get in touch with your local garrison and host an armor building party to get real proffesional hands on help. Keep us posted.

Nice! It feels like Christmas when it arrives.

Can't sit down here either.

i used acrylic paints, easily removed if you are not happy .
