  1. Stomper T-Tracks if still around? I was just about to give a go on a home made E-11 Thank you if still available
  2. Thanx for the recommendation. Ordered two. One to mess up and one to do right
  3. That blaster got me all choked up; just wonderful The split butt/kidney seems to me to be visible on pics #2 and #3 in the first post, although I am by no means an expert (just fishing around for ideas as I'm putting my RT together ) Excellent armor!
  4. Nathan, thank you if you are still collecting names. If over, I commend you on your generosity and those that have also given in this post. STAR WARS EPISODE IV : A NEW HOPE STORMTROOPER
  5. Welcome Love that scout armor. i should probably head over there and take a look-see Nah, let me get this project done first
  6. Didn't I already attempt to answer this question for you in a similar post on this forum? Oh well... The R-Mod was designed for a person who was 6' 220# The "fit" problems, as at least many have, are in the arms and legs. To quote R of RT-Mod in an email to me a while back:
  7. OMG, thank you for posting this. I am waiting on my RT-Mod from Canada. He sent it on Dec. 4th and stated about 8 days to me. i have been worried that I won't get it and that I should panic (always helps, right?). Good to know stuff is just late <_<
  8. Rob (of RT-Mod) built his armor to fit him. He was (is?) 6'0" and 200#
  9. Just to be a bit different I ordered a pair of Hatch® Operator™ Tactical Gloves: ------- They were on sale . Someone had posted (this forum?, MWG?) about having these once. They are a bit different from the flight gloves and have an elastic band to keep the forearm end tucked. I'll let you know when I get them.
  10. Ack! Can't find it I remember a post about describing a backward swoop (slope?) of Han's shoulder bells vs. a forward slope of Luke's. Let me try and find it and I'll link it. Not sure if thats what the OP is looking at. There is mention of the central ridge curving one way in his post. Off to search
  11. While waiting on my RT-Mod to arrive ( ) I have been looking at several builds on here/youtube/other sites. Almost all of them talk of gluing one side of the extremity pieces and velcroing the other. It seems to me that if I am a good fit, the thigh/bicep/perhaps forearms could be glued on both sides, leaving the calves velcroed for the passage of feet. Two questions: -Is this wrong? I'm sure some of you have done this and I am just not finding the build. -How does one glue them? Both at the same time? Or one side at a time? Any advise would help. BTW, I was thinking that if I did expand (bodybuilding/food-stuffing) I would use E6000 which seems to allow an eventual separation if coaxed along (or so I have read) and then just insert shims. I would think I would need to remove the velcro glued pieces anyway if I needed to expand. Thanx in advance
  12. Wow. I really needed to see this post. As I tend to be accident prone, paranoid, and overly cricical of my mistakes (great combo, huh?) I plan to ditch the Devcon I bought and use E6000 for the build of my RT-Mod when it arrives. A bit more forgiving, it seems
