Completed td-regardless of the photo angle, the clips are just about flush with the caps...

Even with masking the sides of these are tough to get... Oh well, I may just leave them like they are.

I used a Lexan scissors, not score/snap

I don't know how I'm ever going to get these edges level/even. I know that the sides that get covered don't need to be perfect, but that is so many sides...

Did the dremel for the larger burrs, sandpaper now... Time consuming, but it is happening...

I've got a dremel, just too concerned it would be too "aggressive" even at low.

Oh, and ROUGH trimming done!

What is the best way to get rid of burrs like these? Not necessarily just on this piece of armor, but others. I've got Lexan scissors, but they aren't that small. Is a dremel too aggressive? Mouse sander?
I don't own a belt sander.

So, speaking of elastic, should I be using "woven" or "knit" elastic?

I appreciate screen accurate, really, I do... I also will try to get comparable width elastic... However, if someone counts the # of cords in my elastic, I'm doomed...
Here's a great post to review before shopping for elastic to be used in your build:

Also thanks max, I'll probably run out and get the elastic today! In addition, what else would the polyfiber webbing be sold as at wal mart?

Armor arriving Saturday 01/30. Also, I ordered these cut resistant gloves so I don't DIE while trimming my armor!

Besides e6000 instead of ca glue, does anyone have suggestions on building this armor contrary to the directions?

Yeah, I switched over to Tapatalk and it works well.
Airborne, pretty sure I've got 501st access, but not 100% sure. If not, I haven't needed it yet lol.
