  1. Nice little bit of history.... http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-14302173
  2. The Spainish Garrison are VERY busy right now. This is one of the best ive seen from your shores but i do notice a couple of things whicj may or may not matter. The cover strips on the forearms and biceps look too long and extend over the end which should pinch you and not be comfortable. I dont know if youve overlapped or only trimmed one side but the backs of your thighs look like the strips are way off centre?! Im not SDS familiar but I know with AP the rear raised piece usually gets fully removed. Good luck and nice job
  3. Nice work. You may consider velcro on your boots to stop them slipping outside your shins. The main ab buttons look quite small, especially compared to the smaller plate. Try aligning the arms so the biceps/forearms dont overlap and keep the ridgeline continuous on the back. Surely there if not very close to centurion.
  4. Wow. That was FAST!!! Cheers
  5. Congrats and welcome fellow Newbie Centurion!
  6. Phil Hogg 42174 centurion letter please
  7. Thank you Sir, youve obviously had a great vacation. Thanks to everyone as well for all their help and support..... Hurraaaahhhh
  8. Great work. Congratulations!!
  9. Congratulations. Job very well done!
  10. Im jealous. These sounded great in store.
  11. Looks great. AP sniper plate always wonky... Just appreciate the tag
  12. I used 42174 because im a tourist at all this so 421 had to be used, then year of birth 74. Yes, lame I know!
  13. Good Luck!! Next time youre in Dollarama buy the white cotton lining gloves... They prevent sweaty swamp hand inside the rubber gloves!
  14. First troop complete. Soccer game at Ronald McDonald House in Toronto. This is why Im here, this was so worth the build, honoured to be part of an amazing day!
  15. Looks good. The one thing standing out is your TD clips, they need to be right to the ends, touching the end caps.
  16. Very tidy build, Id expect a pass here! Well done. Gazmosis is away until next weekend so sit tight and enjoy a job well done!
  17. Thanks Tusken. The biceps dont move about when im walking etc with my arms down. I am going to loosen the elastic a little to give the tops room. I have velcro stuck on the belt end but it doesnt stick too well, needs sewing on like the rest is. Adhesive velcro is no use on fabric
  18. I wonder if the biceps shifted a little since my strapping adjustments after EIB. I replaced and tightened every single strap on the torso and arms to bring in the sides, back and shoulders. Doing this left the biceps a bit high so i lowered them, and i think now the elastic under the shoulder bells is too tight and making the biceps off vertical. As for the size of the biceps I had sized them so tight when flexed. If I made them smaller I wonder if I may have problems when/if lifting anything as even my weedy muscles would have nowhere to go?! Its funny how a small adjustment can lead to knock on effects...
