  1. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/25165-fs-imperial-binders-handcuffs/
  2. I had the chance to squire with Garison Carida this weekend in my old hometown.
  3. I will try that and post some new photos, I also added some shims to the sides of the kidneys, that will also help with the sizing.
  4. Problem for today is to keep the chest from opening a gap between the ab and chest I need to keep the ab as high as possible. Then looking at EIB aplications I see that the top of the kidney is in line with the top of the ab. Doing that makes a 2 1/2" gap off of the top of the back to my shoulder. Do I trim: A - the blue line and take the gap I need from the back? B - the red lines and split the difference between the back and the kidney? C - the green lines and split the difference between the top and bottom of the kidney? I understand to take a little at a time, I just don't know where to start.
  5. I have the 2 1/2" question. Cut bottom of back or top of kidney? Ab/cod is as hight as it can go, Top of Kidney lined up with to of ab. That makes the back 2 1/2" to high.
  6. I paited mine to follow the reference photos, and left the dimple white. I wish I had your steady hand on how sharp you got the corner.
  7. First thing: Helmet almost finished, I need fix the lens so it will not hit my nose anymore. Second thing: I wanted to see what I needed to do with the torso, I had my son help by looking at FISD and doing the best he could to tape me into it. This is what it would look like if Jaba the Hut tried on a TK uniform.
  8. That's what I thought. A big headache with little reward. I am doing it on the shin because of the stress from putting them on and off.
  9. Got the shins done today. I have seen a lot of people have problems with puttings inside strips in the forearms and biceps. Are they needed? Also did some painting today. I would be a pro compared to the reference photos. Looks bad when I see some of the talent around here
  10. will this work for the eyes? http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx/Safety-Face-Shield-Replacement-Faceshield-Standard/_/R-SAS5152_0006418023
  11. I am hoping to use that at my undersuit for now. Compression ware makes me feel like I can't breathe. The first smile you will see is my approval shot. The rotation of the biceps was a bugger for me. I bet I looked at fifty photos to try and get it right.
  12. After Lord Vader had me TAD (temporary additional duty) for a few weeks I am back at it. Mighty Tank came through as promised and new shins arrived. I was able to get the helmet together, and like a lot of people the left side gave me a little trouble but I got it together. Today I got the arms sized, trimmed, and ready for coverstrips plus E6000 fist the helmet now the arms tomorrow is onto the legs.
  13. Nice job, even for an Army Dog, Tim!!! I kid, I kid. You are the type of person that makes me want to do better every day. WELL DONE!!!
  14. FYI: I have two left shins as well. Trooper Gear is all over it trying to figure it out.
  15. A TK in Garrison Carida wanted to see some of the improvements in the new AM armor. I thought some more people would like as well. Left Arm Right Arm Chest
  16. I was going to stop at Harbor Freight to see if I could pick up a darker lens. Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star
  17. I knew I should have looked again....GGGGRRRRRRRRR But I did get the ankles done. I will be sizing up forearms and shins tomorrow to get them ready for glue. Oh and fixing the forearms again.
