  1. Correct! How it's mounted is not an issue at the higher levels of approval, well, unless it just looks like garbage then we might say something lol
  2. Looking good Sarah
  3. Thumping right along, good job
  4. Nope, cap rivets are canon that's all. You can use either, or, or both.
  5. Snaps will work but you run the risk of the ammo belt being detached from the cloth belt by a fan during troops. Canon (screen accurate) is cap rivets. You can buy a set with the tool off Ebay for $10 https://www.ebay.com/itm/BBTO-120-Set-Leather-Rivets-Single-Cap-Rivets-Tubular-Metal-Studs-with-Fixing-4/122824427896?epid=21007692321&hash=item1c98e80978%3Ag%3A0IwAAOSw9gRaFjgc&LH_PrefLoc=1&_sop=15&_sacat=0&_nkw=single+cap+rivets&_from=R40&rt=nc
  6. Wow that stinks, sorry to hear Shawn.
  7. Whats the status on this Shawn?
  8. Beautiful job
  9. Just an FYI I'm going to move this build to the build thread section.
  10. Coming along nicely Pam, keep up the good work
  11. In order of primary usage: 1. Exacto knife 2. Belt sander 3. Dremel
  12. Eliminate the problem all together and go with DOT or Fasnap, better quality anyways.
  13. Jo-Anns, Ebay, Amazon
  14. Looks good , just ensure the cover strip doesn't extend beyond the edge of the armor itself.
  15. B-E-A-utiful!
  16. Anytime
  17. Speaking for myself only, I've used mineral spirits on 100s of occasions, it's perfectly safe. Like everything else in life too much of anything can be a negative. Use sparingly, allow area to breath and dry. If rub too hard you may get a blemish, that's why there Novos #2 polish. Finally and most importantly, as DOs we always state "The accuracy of your armor is ultimately up to you the wearer".
  18. I think it's high time we create individual photo check lists. New armor types with new details require a new photo check list for each, or at minimum make a universal one. Also, we need to update the application required photos lists. The ROTK alone has enough changes compared to the OTTKs to warrant it's own list.
