FB - WTF: Walt's Trooper Factory

http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35994-ukswraths-cooling-fan-kits/

Hi Rachel, we have a 4'11" trooper in our garrison who troops a few times a month. She has a trimmed down ATA. Walter's Trooper Factor I believe makes youngsta kits but you may be too big. You can find him on Facebook BTW, welcome to the FISD great to have you here.

I'll second that.

Follow this link then find Cooling fan kits under the sales section. -----------

Yes

Noted!

I ordered the exact same material Echo uses but I found it in black. Enough to make 20 brackets. Echo's were laser cut, mine will be done by hand, I'll let everyone on my sales thread know how it goes.

Thanks David, we figured this to be the case. Troop away soldier

ah hahaha nice! Thanks

Hey David, thank you adding your EIB app link and for your Centurion application. Let's get your approved CRL and Centurion Application Requirements: All submission photos are present and your armor meets all the Centurion requirements. Sly and myself would like to congratulate and welcome you to the Centurion level. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we make suggestions mentioned by your fellow troopers, Sly or myself. Our only suggestion would be to maybe repaint your blaster with a non metallic paint. At certain angles it appears almost silver. Your neck seal looks very similar. Maybe it's the camera angle or photo processing, were not quite sure. The neck seal should definitely be black or glossy (rubber) black, the blaster is to be black but can appear to be weathered (metal wear in the corners). When you get a moment re-examine these two areas. If it's a picture issue forget we mentioned it Excellent work!

They're actually "S" snaps (aka poppers) as seen here in my build http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35086-ukswraths-anovos-tk-build/?p=474712. These are what were used on the movie armor however, line 24 snaps will work just as efficiently. "S" snaps ------------- Cheers

Well, we generally want to see them more like the illustration that I posted. But even if we used your image Han and Luke's knees are still positioned higher than yours. I should have posted this earlier, forgive me. These lines should follow one another closely. On a positive note, as we always state it's ultimately up to the wearer to decide if they want to go the extra mile. Where your knee is currently placed is a grey area. To be honest if it's superglued to the shin and your run the risk of severely damaging your armor trying to move it, it may not be worth it. Congrats again and see you at Centurion

Awesome, sounds like fun

I found if you use an exacto knife you can carefully slice off the corners without damaging the armor underneath. Just take your time and wear cut resistant gloves. Glad my build thread helped. You're doing good.

And may I suggest if you're not too far along to chamfer the cover strip corners giving them a more screen accurate look. This can be done on all the cover strip corners. Reference picture Keep up the great work

No problem thanks David

Hey David, Sly or myself will be with your shortly. While you wait, at the top of this page could you post the link to your EIB application please. Thank you

Hey Jorge welcome. Thank you for your EI application. Let's get started. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. If we had any suggestions it would be to reduce your shoulder bell to chest and back plate gap. It appears you fill out your armor quite well and have made the necessary adjustments to bring them closer. Other than replacing the bells, which we're not requiring you to do, maybe trimming the lower return edge even further and tighten the bell to shoulder strap may help. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. This is also where we try and get you in the best possible position for a successful Centurion application. Though not bad, the drop box alignment could use a bit of fine tuning. CRL stated the drop boxes are to be aligned with the edge of the ammo belt. Gluing the drop box straps to the cloth waist belt should help prevent them from shifting. Reference photo. I like to to use this photo of Han because it illustrates that even when bent over the drop box still remains aligned with the ammo belt edge, Your armor looks great Jorge. Hope to see you at Centurion.

Thank you

Hey Taylor. Thank you for your EIB application. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. We'd just like to say excellent job on your build, which has made for a quick and easy application on our part, thank you. Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. This is also where we try and get you in the best possible position for a successful Centurion application. Though not mentioned in the CRL we are highly recommending you replace your philips head TD screws with screen accurate pan head slot versions. This is one of those areas that isn't seen and often overlooked however, you've done such a fine job building your armor to screen accuracy why stop now Reference picture Another minor suggestion though not in the CRL either are the Hovi tips. The tips them selves are correct with the exception the insides should be white. A little touch up paint and you're set. Reference picture Again, very nice job on your build. Hope to see you at Centurion.

Hey Mark, thank you for your Centurion application, and thank you for making the suggested updates made during your EIB application. CRL and Centurion Application Requirements: All submission photos are present and your armor meets all the Centurion requirements. Sly and myself would like to congratulate you on a job well done. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we make suggestions mentioned by your fellow troopers, Sly or myself. We have a few suggestions here. We suggest minimizing the gap a bit between the left ear and helmet. Could be a s simple as a little trimming. Another would be to secure the drop box strapping. Doing this will help maintain the drop box alignment with the edge of the ammo belt. And finally we suggest maybe adding a bit more glue between the flex hand pate and the glove to eliminate the gap and reduce it getting snagged on something. Excellent work! now get out there and represent.

Hey Juan welcome to your EI review, lets get into it!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for level 2. Welcome to Expert Infantry trooper! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. The only area we can see needing some adjustment is to either bring down the ab or raise the thighs. The gap between the two can be reduced a bit. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. This is also where we try and get you in the best possible position for a successful Centurion application. There are a few things that will need change or adjustment as per the Lvl 3 CRL so lets take a look. As Sly mentioned the Sniper knee place will need to come up. Take a look at the reference picture provided. The lower knee plate return edge should closely follow the same line as the shin armor itself. Reference photo For Centurion we'll also need to see images of the lower forearm with no return edge and the left side ab rivets, all six. Reference photos Excellent job on your build Juan. Hope to see you at Centurion

Looks awesome Rick
