Haha! No worries. I had the same thing happen recently. Don't think you can delete them but you can go back and edit. I just deleted the text and entered a period or emoji. Sent from my N9132 using Tapatalk

This is a thread Pandatrooper's ATA helmet assembly thread that I referenced when building my ATA bucket a while back, seems to be a classic. Like Cricket mentioned, photobucket is a great way to upload pictures to the site, especially if you are using a digital camera. For the majority of my thread, I took pictures with my phone's camera so I just update my thread with the Tapatalk app. Keep up the good work!

Are you serious! I would love that!! I'll PM you and send you some dough to cover cost and shipping via Paypal!

I stole it from SpiceCredits but thanks anyway!

Congrats again, basic approval and beyond should be easy peasy for you. Tapatalk always cuts off some of my post... don't know why... Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Awe man, look at you go! You look amazing in your plastic spaceman suit! Congrats - Congrats! Yeah, 3 troops in and I am always making some kind of adjustment to strapping or the armor itself. It's crazy how dressed in your living room cautiously moving around while trying to figure out if you'll ever see right is way less stressful on the armor then making a quick exit after being swarmed by 25 kids.

Seriously Tapatalk...

Dang it Tapatalk!

Anyone of Tony's will be detailed enough to help you out. Here is his Anovos build thread. You'll get a really good idea from this. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35086-ukswraths-anovos-tk-build/ Also, if you look in his signature line you will see the hyper links to all of his other build threads as well. Did you start a build thread on here? We can help you out way easier with any questions you may have. Hope this helps!

Yeah, I feel you. I had a couple of moments like that. Gary (Sentry71) and Tony (Ukswrath) got some frantic PMs asking if they could talk me off the roof. It's all good, it works itself out right?!

That is epic! Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

If you have a sewing machine. Sew (is that correct?) The velcro strips to the nylon straps. Super easy, problem solved. Looking sharp trooper! Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

I need that! Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Yeah my kit has no return edges on any of the arm pieces but I am on the "thicker side". [emoji14] I took all the return edge off the shoulder bells hoping to get them as close to the shoulder straps as possible. Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Mine looks almost identical. My cover strip comes down to just the top of that ridge. I also added some E6000 to hold the belt in place. I had the same gap and glued a scrap piece of ABS to the back. Looks good! Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

That makes sense too. Have you seen the youtube video where they use a coffee can lined with a cotton or paper towel soaked in acetone to smooth out 3d printed items. Just the vapors as the acetone evaporates has that kind of effect on the plastic. It's crazy.

Yea! Looking good. A word from a lesson learned by me careful with the ABS paste in a sealed container. I did the same thing in a mason jar. As the acetone evaporated it built up pressure and scared the poop out of me when I twisted the lid open! Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

I would take them to the armor party next week and get a second look before you go through the shimming process. I followed Bill's thread since we got or armor roughly around the same time and it seemed like his concern was being a bigger guy the armor wouldn't fit correctly but I think with a little extra work it would have worked. I believe it just was beyond his comfort level. Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Looking good! I think you may have already, it's hard to tell on my phone but in case you haven't don't forget to take a lighter to the ends of all your strapping to prevent fraying and it will also help clean it up. Move along, move along. Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Yeah, it's hit or miss. When I go to my local Wal Mart they are either in stock or out of stock. I would keep checking. Also a local Garrison mate has the same tote and said he picked up his at Target. I haven't confirmed if they are available but he said he even paid a dollar less?!!

Looks great! Love the padding but you are scaring me with the ear screws sticking out (in) so far!? You should trim them down. My big fat head would get all scratched up if I put that on. I cut mine down then added a ball of hot glue on the end as an extra measure. Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Haha! So I did my troop last week and didn't use it cause the 3 of us had the same wireless system and two of us had crosstalk! So I guess I won't be using the wireless when trooping with others. Really I need to get with the other tks at a non troop and see if the units will somehow find a different frequency on their own. Wishful thinking I am sure. Anyway, it's all good. I have a troop on Saturday and maybe Sunday so I will try the volume level out then. How goes the build? Sent from my LGLS740 using Tapatalk

Is that throat mic comfortable? Also, do you have a link for it. The other day, 3 of us troopers used the same wireless system and had crossover with it. It was no bueno...
