Hey Weapons experts ... do any of you know the length of a T21B Blaster? 1300mm? Longer? Shorter?
The standard T21 is approximately 1300mm long. I'm looking to have a T21B 3D printed, but I want to make sure it's going to be the correct size.

Hi Manoah and welcome aboard future Trooper! Many of us wear AP, and it is a great kit. No worries with them.
Have a read in the “Getting Started-Read this First” section, as there is some really good info in there for new members.
Then, have a read in “Costuming and Builds” section to discover other troopers who are building (or have built) the same armor as you! Really good tips, examples, pictures, previously answered questions, and successes here.
In addition to looking at all the various build threads, I highly recommend checking out the “Advanced Tactics” section where you can see examples of those who have taken their armor to the next levels of screen accuracy (EIB and Centurion). I’d recommend that you aim to build to one of the certification levels, as TK’s look their best at these levels. It's really not hard to acquire EIB or Centurion, and it’s best to do during your build rather that after.
If, and when, you’re looking for other bits –and-pieces, accessories, boots, blasters, electronics, etc., be sure to check out the “Imperial Commissary/PX” section for items for sale, project runs, and for other stuff that most of the troopers use.
Also, make contact with your local Garrison. They’ll help guide you through the process of becoming a member of the 501st, and may have local Armor Parties in the works where you can get hands-on build advice and guidance, not to mention meet members of your future Garrison.
So, start a build thread here on FISD; post lots of pictures and questions. We are all here to help you out and to make sure you look your best, and represent the 501st as best as possible.
All the best on your TK journey!

AP armor will serve you well, trimmed or untrimmed.

Looking good trooper. My only critique might be that your thighs could go down a hair to even out some of the black around the knee. But otherwise, nice job!

Those boot will serve you well.

Looking good Chris. Your left eye (right eye in pic) needs to be opened up a little towards the centre.

Yup, what lucnak said. Well done trooper. Looking Great!
Is the chest plate choking you a little, or do you have enough clearance there? Want to make sure you're comfortable.

Congratulations Trooper!

You could pad your kidney a little bit, but you will still need side shims to meet Centurion specs. Insert some padding, cinch your belt up snug and see what gaps you have left. Don't touch your ab plate, only add shims to your kidney plate, and yes, try to square up the shim if possible, vs a pie shaped piece.

Looking Good Jeremy. Let's see a pic with your kit on and your belt done up snugly, checking for side seam alignment.

Setbacks occur. Progress with some other parts while you wait for a replacement.
-
Yup, keep the elastic taught enough to hold the bicep in place, but it does, need to be squeezy tight. Nice recover on the vocoder. Ensure you leave enough room at the bottom of your shins so they have room to move when you walk without splitting apart.
Looking good trooper!
