Hi Everyone,
I have begun my first TK build and have run into a sizing issue with a few parts namely the things and the forearms.
To give a brief background on the kit I am currently in Taipei Taiwan and had worked with the CO of the outpost here on obtaining a good kit from a source that a lot of the TK's in Taiwan, Hong Kong etc currently use. The assembly style is an overlap method and not the butt join / cover-strip that a lot of kits use.
prior to doing any gluing I wanted to make sure that the pieces would have a good fit and i wouldn't run into any issues. After reading ALOT of the posting on here this seemed like a logical first step
Onto my questions:
Forearms - is there any issue with using Velcro to make it easier to take them on and off? Similar to what is done for the calves?
Thighs - Same question - I have made a clean glue for the front portion but when it comes to seal up the back it gets a bit thin on real estate. Would a velcro seal work on the things (hadn't seen a thread speaking to it either way)? I may be able to use velcro to seal it off and think if glued that it won't hold. Long term it seems like a shim option would be best
I am open to any ideas or suggestions that you all may have.
Thanks ahead of time for any of your ideas or banter
Shaun
