Wow, your making good progress, must be getting cold down there in Camberra by now Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Cool, this is my first build, and hoping to see my box in 4 weeks fingers crossed, and same here with getting everything together in the mean time. It's exciting having stuff turn up in the post every week. Good luck with your build Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Sorry, thicker than a couple of mm's Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It's funny, you are asking all the same questions I was asking only a short while ago. Many hard ware stores sell the aluminium strips in various lengths and widths, you need 25mm width or 1 inch, but don't get anything thi her than a couple of mm or it's too difficult to bend Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hi TKedt, I am also small framed and have ordered an AP, it was recommended to me as suitable for us thinner guys, but unless you are extremely lucky, it seems all armour will require modification to suit your build, height etc. How long is your wait for the big brown box to arrive?

That would have been truly AWESOME Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Looking good so far Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks SL, will give it a try, it's cheap enough, might buy a strip to play around with first as my armour hasn't arrived yet Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks guys, will continue my search for appropriate width, as i would like to keep it as close to canon as possible. Will try Masters ( known in the USA as Lowes) same chain, they may have what I need. Did find an aluminum manufacturer, but he would only sell in length of 4 meters, I think that's about 12 foot of alloy strip. Cheers

I have a question. I see on the threads that the Thermal det belt clips width is approx 1" wide. I can only find aluminum strips in 20mm wide, that are of a thickness of 1.6mm, easy enough to bend into shape. Is this approvable for Centurion??? The 25mm width = 1" is 3mm thick and virtually impossible to get a tight bend in for the belt hook section. The only other 1" width i could find is only 1mm thick and too flimsy to hold shape well. Thanks in advance for any help with this Andrew

Shocking that they would license such an inaccurate bucket as that, and sucker in the poor unsuspecting punter. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes that's a good call, red and gold or you could be original and go Blue and Gold like your country flag Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Iconic Iron Man colours of red and gold do look fantastic, have you considered War machine Stars and Stripes Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hmm, I just ordered size 10 TK as I wear uk size 44 Australian anywhere from a size 9 to a size 10 depending on brand, hope they fit or they will be up for sale. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks all, appreciate everybody's input, Rich330, those photos were of a great help, looks like AP is a definite for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks Gaz and enrod, looks like its goining to be AP, darn the freight is a killer.

Hi all I am in the closing stages of making my first TK armour ANH Stunt purchase and am overwhelmed by the amount of info, hence my question. I am a 5'9" tall but weigh only 149lb. I intend to build to Centurion straight up I am looking at the following ATA but the waiting list is 7 months long (I could be dead by then) Lol, but I hope not. RT-Mod MTK AP AM, think i need to buy back plate as not accurate for centurion When reading the armour guide on FISD it seems that some of the posted info is out of date so i would appreciate any sizing help. I do see that some armour is designed with the larger trooper in mind, my height seems ok but excessive trimming for my slim build could lead to lets say, interesting looking armour Thanks in advance for any input

Sorry to ask this question so late in your post, but when drilling out the holes in the barrel, did you use a drill press or just do it hand held? This is an awesome build by the way super impressed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Very nice Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Great build Must get on to MTK to suss some pricing on this kit
