  10. Thanks.. am thinking the same... I'm thinking belt loops made with 25mm black nylon.. how or what are you thinking with velcro... to keep the belt against the cod and butt plates? or.. wish the belts where a bit easier.. lol... I have ordered a load of Chicago screws and was thinking of going that route.... but how to attach them through the belt and onto the boxes??? Hrmm Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
  11. Any update on what you plan to do with the belt?? I'm in the same position as yourself and about to start but unsure how/what to do Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
  12. Am about to attach everything to my belt over the weekend...so will be very interested to find out... was going to go with Chicago screws (on Jim's armour so the boxes are harder) but recently seen a loop method using nylon around the belt... I know the belt "buckle" is on the left hip covered by one of the pouches... but in relation to distances be the boxes.. is there a set rule? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
  13. Thanks... having looked it more I'm in the exact same mindset as yourself..and getting the kit..at least I KNOW.. I've done the best I can to make it as best I can and the finish I want Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
  14. Ops.. Testing tapatalk :-) Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
  15. Am interested, and about to order I think,.. Any idea what the finish is like on a complete one? Red LEDs are cool.. anyone cracked the idea of the Blue effect on the end of the batons yet? Havnt seen anywhere that has managed it yet... Have been in touch with them today and they are offering the shields as well now,,, anyone got one or? Fair play on the guide.. Its made me want to get one now :-)
  16. Add me to Sales thread (and shield) ,, awesome Work,, cant wait to see more pics
  17. I'm working on the belt and suspension harness as we speak. Yup Waiting for this as well.... Armour Looks amazing,, fair play
  18. Firstly, awesome work, in the lid itself and the drilled out 7 strips,, What did you put under them to give that effect? the Same tape or did you use some material or? Cheers, keep up the excellent work.. :-)
  19. Hi Guys, Well Im at the Final part of my build, and that happens to be the thighs.. Its possible this has been asked a lot but here goes.. HELP.. Im working on TM 1.5mm.. After the mini heart attack when I discovered the back of the Right Thigh is at an angle and it is supposed to be that way,,,., phew.. I have the front cut and Cover Strips on and the problem i have is Sizing and the thighs, mostly the back Im about 11 1/2 stone,, not tiny, or big but I have big thighs Compared to my Lower legs ( lots of Cycling),, I have cut away the unwanted Excess on the backs of the thighs. My questions are: -should the backs be cut so that the bottom is tighter around the knee than the top? so the bottom would be tighter than the top looking more like it was getting smaller as it gets towards the knee? -whats the best way to do this? cut wedges out of the bottom? -exactly how high should the thighs come up? I will be attaching it to a garther system belt that I have already made -How much space should I leave around the thigh between the armour and my leg., should it be a close fit? or as I have Seen around here a gap of a couple of Fingers all around at the top? and what about the bottom...? Any and all reference photo`s guys would be awesome,...... I plan on suiting up later tonight in full with the garther system and tape the straps to the thighs and see how they look as they Are... and see what it looks like with the shins and Cod piece.. Thanks in Advance
  20. Velcro..... I know of a few that use Velcro on the Front of the shoe and just under the Shin, hidden ... Works Well
  21. Have both Darman`s and Veedoxes neckseals both great quality,,, As Im going ANH Hero I wanted the shiny Material so I also got Veedoxes Neckseal.. and its excellent, Went with Darman`s ANH Hero holster couldnt be happier. Both great guys and offer great high quality soft parts its up to you really...
  22. Thanks Locitus,,, Have those, but I would really like to be able to Remove the ABS from the Canvas (possibly one reason is because when I was Starting off I was recommended to get the canvas belt, but now I "know" a bit more, hmmm ) if you know what I mean
  23. Vern,, Question,,, in Relation to the 1/4" Screws,, where do you place the head, ( Flat head Screw driver End) Facing outwards? or inwards? If outwards you would need to remove the rivet covers to dismantle the belt.. facing side, Im assuming they will scratch the hell out of the ABS ab plate........................... Just wondering...............
  24. DarSec For the holster its seems 1/8 " chicago Screws are being used ... But from Research there are anything from 4.75mm to 9mm, reason Im Saying 1/8" is because I have ordered one of Dartan`s ANH Hero Holster and he confirms that he is Sending me 4 1/8" chicago screws.. Which saves me a lot of hassle and its great,, Thanks Dartan and for the belt, you can us any size, Im working in mm sorry So just ordered a few samples from Ebay and going to See which works best, I have ordered 7mm 9mm 13mm Silver Chicago Screws.. I will see What slots in best under the Abs Rivet Covers for the Belt,, Vern has advised that you but tape over the top of the screw when putting the ABS cover over o as not To have an issue with heat and The ABS ( thanks Vern) Hope that helps you out
