Hi Clint, Thanks for opening this topic. I am fully with you on this one. So many variations; before you know it we have 8 additional CRL's.<br>
So yes, good idea. Thumbs up!

I checked out their site but could not find their TFA stuff. Is it coded? Anyone got a direct link?

Ok, count me in!

@ Wyatt: We are with 6 of our Garrison in the Beta group, so probably July or August. Nice time for you to come over to the Netherlands, take my boat for the sunny days, enjoy some well deserved vacation, and while you're here...help us out with your practical experience. What do you say? (a new career opportunity) ;-)

Nice to read your build Shana. I am anxiously awaiting my first box of Anovos goodies...and...this will be very first build of anything, ever.
So I try to read everything here...and feel somewhat comfortable I am not alone in our garrison on this immense project.
I'll be following your thread. Keep up the good work and for now: good luck with that sinus and ear!

Doesn't that depend on whether I am willing to pay for those costs? Up to you of course :-)
-
i never really had the time to make the rest of them i have parts for.
Hi Matt, still have those parts and if you do...willing to 'part' from them?

Hi Steve, thank you so much for making my day even better!
Returning from a great troop at Dutch Disney Headquarters with our Dutch Garrison I learned that I was welcomed to the EIB ranks. That really makes me a proud trooper :-)
Tried my best to provide you with some clear pictures of this armor which already gave me some memorable moments.
I really appreciate your feedback; the compliments (which I will forward to the guys from RS too) but also the suggestions to improve my armor for my next application level.
It inspires me to go this one step further...
Thanks again! Skyline out.

Thank you Tony, for your constructive comments. At this time I would consider it a great honour to reach the Expert Infantry status. Although, yes..to be honest.....I hope to be joining the ranks of Centurion in a nearby future too.
The guys from RS were really helpfull...I am the tallest TK in the Dutch Garrison. Quite a challenge to have a proper fit.
I'll study on my breathing techniques And share my other pictures whenever the time has come.
Skyline out.

Nice work Marc...I learn a lot from these useful comments.

Congratz Jay, on a nice build!

Hi Germain, thanks very much for your useful comments.
I used the photo checklist and I did not see the D-Ring requirement there. But...I made an extra picture and edited my original post to add the D-Ring picture.
Also...I replaced some (too) low-res pics with the requested hi-res pics.

Nice job, Pascal! I am no expert, but I did notice a few things that might help you out... It looks like your belt is not centered at the front. I believe the center button should line up with the center line on the lower ab plate. Also, if you look at the CRL's, you will notice that the thigh amamo pack rides higher than what you have, covering the bottom. I had the exact same issue, and E-6000 worked out great to hold it up. I would suggest using painter's tape to mask off any areas that you don't want the glue to get on, though. (I found this out the hard way, LOL).
Lastly, I think Gazmosis will need to see a photo of the single split rivet on the lower ab from the bottom view. Great job on the build, my friend, and veel succes on your EIB quest!
Hi Joseph,
Thanks for your reply. I see that the thigh ammo pack rides a bit high indeed on this picture. Normally it's ok. See this picture taken outside:

Hi Craig, most welcome.
I just joined last month and I must say I recognize a lot in your wonderful story. It made me smile.
Thanks...and enjoy!

Greetings Pascal, Congratulations on your approval, and welcome to the FISD!!!
Best of luck with your health. A positive outlook will certainly serve you well.
When you have a moment, please have a look at the Advanced Tactics section of the forum. The EIB and Centurion programs are for recognition of higher levels of accuracy in your armor. As yours was built by RS, it would likely only require some photographs be taken, and you'd be certified!! Good luck, and I hope to see you join those ranks here!
Thank you Tim !
I will surely have a look at the Advanced Tactics. Thanks!
Pascal

Clint, one question: earlier in this build thread you were mentioning that you had to scale the 3d prints about + or - 20%. Are your listed files in the correct size now, or do they still need to be scaled afterwards?
Thanks...I can't wait to start to build this First Order Godzilla.
Edit: a Chris Hale vest is coming to the Netherlands, yeehaa!
