Whose armor are you using? It can vary depending on which kit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Measure twice, cut once. I'd say just get a feel for everything and do lots of test fits before making any permanent changes, and make sure you have a ruler or a tape measure to help with accurate cuts on either leg

Armor is only armor until it is assembled in the way they assembled them in '77

As for your thighs, you can always remove most of or all the return edge for some extra room. For you back piece you can give it a hot water bath and gently bend the piece to fit you better. I'm not an expert on shimming but as far as I've seen it just requires putting an extra piece on the torso and gluing it down as an extension. I've got an ANOVOS Kit too and everything seems to fit ok, good luck though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I bought my first kit from ANOVOS and it's totally worth it to make it with your own hands. Not to mention far cheaper in the long run if you don't already have tools for it which will accumulate more money. I don't think it's worth it to buy the completed ensemble and frankly haven't heard of anyone buying it like that yet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So interesting seeing people use it for other builds besides ANH, looks awesome! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Trooperbay has pretty high end padding, other than that i haven't heard of anyone using anything different

I'm having this same problem, I'm worried that even after a hotbath it won't fit well enough Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How tall are you? I've been thinking of modifying my back plate to fit my height (6'1") because otherwise it seems like it won't fit correctly without having a large gap Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's abs for you. It's all just plastic in the end Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

super awesome!

ANOVOS still hasn't sent my undersuit or gloves yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have my shins set up the same way. It seems to be the overall consensus from the pros so that's what I'm going with Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Still pretty cool!

I have all of my armor trimmed so i've started to put things together. I've been following ukswrath's build and he noted that anovos may have mislabeled their shins and that #25 goes with #28, #24 with #27. ANOVOS however notes that 27 goes to 28, likewise 24 to 25. I labeled my shins according to the anovos instructions, but after looking back and forth i'm just confused at which is which. Can any vets help me figure out which is which? Sorry for small images, posting from my phone's pics the small L is left, the little dot is an R for right

can someone please explain to me why everybody keeps talking about this little detail? Like what is the problem here?

I just got to this stage on my build as well, and from what I gathered on ukwraths build it seems it should fit together flat, but if there's a little gap it probably won't matter too much Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I guess nobody will be able to pull a Leia joke on you lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No a second run of OT TK's. They haven't said anything about FO's yet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This might be an already asked question but i'm too lazy to sweep through all the posts, is this list going to be updated with ANOVOS? Considering that a lot of people have purchased from them and their armor seems to be pretty decent...

Don't forget that ANOVOS is doing their second run soon! It's always nice to have a lot of options

I think your legs are just long. Shins do look a bit high but it doesn't look bad per say. I say go with it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got you fam, https://trooperbay.com/abs-plastic-extension-strips.html

How does the adhesive on the velcro straps feel? I want to know if it seems sturdy enough to hold up or if i should mod to snaps
