Nice one Tyler. Congratulations and welcome to the ranks.

Holy snapping duck S%&T Exciting, the future is.

Hero helmet Bubble lenses 6 tooth frown 3 rank bumps on ears 4 rivets to hold the holster onto belt Stunt Flat lens 8 tooth frown Four rank bumps on ears Only 2 rivets attach holster to canvas belt This just to give you a rough idea, best bet, print out the CRL for both and do your comparison . This hobby takes time and research, have fun[emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Awesome, Awesome job Walt. I could tell by the smile on your face in your photos, you were confident and overjoyed at the accomplishment. Welcome to Centurion rank, you look fantastic.

Hi Eric, welcome back. Please, please, please ship the Australian orders first, as US postal send them via canoe, so they take over two weeks to get here. Then our customs department like to wear them for a few days before they put them into our snail mail system, and finally a week or so later, we will finally, finally get them. This story may seem funny, but unfortunately, the time scale is accurate [emoji20] P.S. I wasn't responsible for the jello, smell, or the black tyre marks out the front. You just can't do those things via Skype Holo systems, but it was the only way to join the party from here in the Outer rim. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I actually thought the photos were of the same person at first look. Only realised it wasn't as I saw other posts lol, you have a doupleganger. [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Probably wondered who the random was that looked down the camera lens. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Being overwhelmed, I think it just par for the course with this hobby. First you have the MASSIVE rescource that is the FISD. Then you have a sharp learning curve and a lot to remember. Then the big brown box arrives, you are excited beyond belief, so you open it up,spread it across the floor and take the obligatory photos, and.... It's time to make your first cut......terror, what if I do it wrong, what if I stuff it up...... But it's ok, we have all been there, we are here for you, to help, give advise, to answer your questions. Take your time, start with something like your forearms, see what the first cut feels like. Trust me, once you make your first cut, your confidence will sky rocket, and you will love every minute of it. I wish you the very best with your build, here if you need help.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalki think he did indeed

You could, but with freight charges every time you need to order the next part, it would cost you much more than necessary in the end

G'day all I thought , just for a bit of fun, I would put into perspective, the magnitude of Scot's journey around Australia. North America and Australia share a similar overall land mass, so ever considering walking around the USA. You can imagine how tired Scott must be from all that walking and how sore his feet must get. Image courtesy of Australian government Geo-science website.

Hi Michael I have an AP, and I promise you wont be disappointed. I notice some items have been mentioned already, but here are a couple of things you will need to replace, so will list them below. Hovi mic tips....AP comes with tap aerators. Suggestion, CFO (cast from original) send a PM to Sskunky here on the boards, his are awesome, complete and ready to install. "S" trim for bottom of helmet. AP come with a "U" shaped trim, fine for basic approval, but if you are considering the higher levels of accuracy (EIB and Centurion) S trim is required. Suggestion Trooperbay sells S Trim Which TK are you building?? ANH,Stunt or Hero, ESB or RotJ. This info will allow me and others to give better feedback, aside from that, keep researching and good luck with your build.

Congratulations Scott, welcome to the Centurion ranks[emoji3][emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Beer actually helped me steady my hand, everything in moderation my friends. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think you are good to go with these mic tips, they just need to be painted appropriately. If you are chasing some more accurate, ready to instal mic tips, I can highly recommend CFO. Just send a PM to Sskunky, here on the boards. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Lol, George is everywhere. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Awesome, looking forward to your build thread. Centurion is no more difficult than the rest of your build when planning to achieve it from the outset. Good luck and research, research, research.

Welcome to EIB rank

Good luck with your application.

Congrats Paul and welcome to EIB.

Great build Chris, and awesome photos too, good luck with your application.

Oh, sorry, it has been a while since I had a look. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Just another thought, have you looked at Mikes YouTube build videos, the links are on Trooperbay. Haven't looked at them for a long time, but might be something there. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes the 15 points are subjective, but honestly, it's not a bad idea. I'm sure Tim has the best interests of all who read it or use it, in mind. Sure there are other ways, but this is meant to be an "easy to use" for new comers that have found their way to FISD, or if you post it on your local boards, to give the noobs a route to take.

Looks fantastic, but agree the belt needs to come up a little, great work overall
