  1. Hi DF, can't help you with that one, but welcome to the FISD, someone will chime in and help, that is for certain. This is a wonderful community. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. You may want to install another zip for toilet time as a one piece is hard core when your busting. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  5. I went with the Aker 1506 and have borrowed an icomm to see if I like it or not before I go buy one. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. Doesn't matter if it is silver or brass color, I used the Brass split rivet in both my ab joint and crotch. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  10. If you can walk up stairs in TK armour, you are doing well my friend, stairs are a challenge for many, myself included. The top of the thighs digs in to my hip area. As to your shins, I too must open mine fairly wide, so I put extra strip on the inside front to reinforce it and have had no problems so far Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. That's good news, looking forward to seeing your app photos. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  12. Hi Brent, armour is looking great, but if I may make a suggestion regarding your thigh ammo belt. It seems you have quite a bit of material left along the top and bottom of this piece, most I have seen, have this trimmed closer to the ammo boxes. Also the rivets look central to the ends, they should be in the top corners, attaching the belt to the thigh. Check the CRL link below. These things may affect your application, but please wait until Steve has had a look and made his comments http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_anh_stunt Good luck with your application.
  13. Massive satisfaction from the full, assemble it yourself experience[emoji2]. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. If you want to remove the last little lip, you can do two things. Dremmel cautiously, or a good sized piece of course sandpaper on a flat surface and sand away holding the end cap in your hand and rubbing back and fourth. I had the same issue as I am sure many do.

  15. Lookin good, just wondering how your rivets popped out, that must have taken some force surely. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. Just remembered, Scope's drop boxes are held together with magnets, but he is worried they may come apart to easily if he put cash or something in them, he plans to change them at some stage but not sure what he is going to use. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. Everyone starts out a little nervous on their first build, but you have already started trimming, so the most daunting step is behind you. Take your time, continue to ask questions when in doubt and refer to build threads and reference photos from the movie. Good luck, we are here to help. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  18. That's an awesome option, me thinks I will be following suit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  19. Congrats Sven, well deserved and welcome to the ranks. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  20. Nice work, you have done, look accurate it does. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  21. Hey guys, to answer the question regarding the notches at the back of your shins and thighs. Absolutely a yes you can, it will not affect your EIB or Centurion applications. I had no choice but to do mine for mobility, and to avoid armour bite, and had no trouble at all with approvals. As Locitus says, some of the troopers in ANH had the notches. Mine were done before any approvals took place. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  22. Good, slow and steady wins the race, and your finished product will look sensational. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  23. I did the loops and put a small piece of Velcro on the inside to keep them in place and make them easily movable. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. Looking awesome so far, arm parts look nice and clean, and the back plat is looking much better, keep up the good work. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
