I bet, my way took me about 1 1/2 hours total.

Capi'tanc'runch My wife had the same idea, I just didn't have the guts to try it. I think you might have taken to many teeth out, you might want to double check.

Congrats Tim!!!! I can't wait to join the ranks with you.

Yes sir, I ordered two sets. I figured if I double them up I can glue a couple of things at the same time. That would give me fifteen pairs to work with.

Thank you sir Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

More dental work

From what I read it is four a side for stunt. I would check with your local garrison to see what they say. Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

In the reference photos the right arm had 12 dimples. Is that what you have?

From what I read you take the edge off the wrist end and the inside edge of the elbow.

My advisor in Garrison Carida asked me to clean the teeth up a little bit more, Smooth them out and square them up. Sounds like a good idea to me once I had a chance to look at them again. The dental project will continue. I also got some magnets and padding ordered from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001KV38ES/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3AGENWXI1NDD0&coliid=I3FCS5PEJ1RF4M http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004RCLM8Q/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3AGENWXI1NDD0&coliid=I3CY6N729WCK0R

Congrats to you and your wife. You are a lucky man!!! Let me know when you get to sleep again. LOL

Funny the trip they take, mine went to New Stanton a llitle over an hour East of Pittsburgh. Sit there a day then come back to the Burgh to get delivered. I look forward to watching your build, you are way more ready than I am on getting all of the "other" things you need.

Eventually I would like to paint the inside and add some electronics. So I am planning on using screws to attach the face to the back. Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

Tonights progress, playing dentist. First I drilled the teeth Then cleaned up a little with an exacto knife I picked up an awesome set of files at Lowe's to finish the teeth

Congrats!!! As I take on this journey I will be looking back on yours for insperation and help.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I thought I had everything figured out as far as research..... then the box came and I was like a deer in the headlights. I have updated my photo post with the tutorials and build threads I am going to use for each of the sections. Thanks again for the advice.

Looking through the photo reference and other builds

First order of business is to match up everything. Layed out in what I think is the right way. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/10434-pandatroopers-am-build-threadam/ Legs http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/tutorials/article/22-howto-assemble-thighs-butt-join-with-cover-strips/ http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/16608-am-armor-shins-the-proper-way-to-assemble-and-wear/ Right arm http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/tutorials/article/8-howto-assemble-and-strap-arm-armor/ Left arm Helmet http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/26301-ne-helmet-build/ FISD vets please advise......and I thought I would be ready for Steve and EIB tonight.

I think your right, from what I read there has been a lot of problems with the ears and helmet in the past. It looks like they took their time to get the new ones right and help out with the trimming.

Today is the day that it will all begin. Like most build threads people start with the shot of the "box". Since I am a larger guy my brown box is just a little bit bigger.

I like this idea, I am going to add them to the box that I take on troops.

Check out the local 501st Garrison to see if they are going to be there. My local garrison is always looking for help. Its a great way to meet people and pick their brains.

I got the helmet as well. I wanted to keep all of the white as close as possible.

Awesome!!!! My box is to arrive on Wednesday can't wait to see how it goes.
