You should be fine !

Yep, I got the Neosport 1 piece. It's being modified to allow for easier pee breaks...

Thanks guys !! I did some more work today, I got the other arm trimmed and I started gluing the outside strips on the forearms and biceps but I ran out of clamps... my magnets should be in in the next couple of days. I also trimmed the butt, kidney and ab plates. I received my undersuit from Amazon...it fits a little too well....lol. I will also need shims since AP is usually for thinner guys ! 4È on each side should do the trick ! The problem is that I don't have strips that are wide enough...ideas ? I guess I can ask Mark when he comes back but would you know if anything is available out there ?

OK... back at it !! I trimmed and fitted a bicep. This is how it looks U have the same issue as with the forearm where the edges do not meet perfectly. I am debating if I should trim the at an angle or leave them and the strip will hide them. Comments, suggestions guys ? I'll copy the same dimensions for the othe arm since they are from the same mold. I'll start gluing as soon as I get my magnets.... Shoulder after supper ??? Why not !! Maybe with a nice glass of Old #7...but just one...don't want to screw up...lol

OK..Day 1..Not much time to work on the armor in the last 2 days but I started this afternoon !! For starters, I'm 6' tall and I weigh #220 so I'm assuming that I will need shims for the kidney plate but I'll tackle that later. So I setup shop in the basement: I'm sharing the space with my daughter that loves painting (as you can see). I did some shopping for basic supplies, Home Depot, Michael's and Rona. I still need to go to Fabricville for the velco,snaps,webbing, etc... Now for the fun part.... Just to get the feel of scoring ABS I started by cutting 15mm strips. After 1 hour I cut enough to do the upper body. I'll cut the 20mm later. I have a question regarding the strips: I was told that 1 outside strip is enough to hold the pieces together, what's your take on this ?? I then tachles 1 forearm, I trimmed the 2 pieces (no left or right for these guys) and fitted them together. I did some sanding after noticing my bloody forearm....lol Here's how it looks. Should I trim to make the edges meet perfectly or the trim will suffice ?? I'm taking a break now, I find it nerve wracking to trim !!! One slip of the blade and it's either my finger or a scrap piece of armor !!

So....It was BBB day !!! Lucky enough, I got to pick up my armor directly at Mark's place (AP) since he lives 15 minutes away !!! I setup a table in the basement where I'll be quiet for the next few weeks... Purchased most of my supplies needed but a few loose ends remains... More shopping this weekend. I still have to buy my accessories but the undersuit is on its way from Amazon. A lot of trimming ahead of me... I'd like to upload pictures but I have to figure it out.... Thanks guys !! There we go, BBB !!!

Je devrais etre en mesure de me joindre a vous l'an prochain !!
