there is a very very small return edge on the inside of the bell, and looking at upgrading to a more stronger elastic to hold them up. and i have room in the side the bell as my shoulder are more curved then boxed just not sure how much to trim as trooper gear doesn't sell individual parts so if i screw up the bells it could be a long time before I can get them replaced.

The one on the left is Sept 15 the one on the right was around Sept 14, they recently redid the molding. I reached out to trooper gear to ask about it and this is the response I got "Yours are newer and more accurate. There were most of the lien once which is why we upgraded our molds. You'll notice your chest back and firearms are different too unfortunately those molds are retired and we no longer pull them" So now I am trying to figure out how to not be so box like in the shoulders and more uniform like the rest of the TK in my garrison.

looking the AM 2.0 shoulder bells there very boxy compared to other troopers I have seen. Trying to figure put if or how to go about trimming them to be less box like and more oval shaped. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. AM 2.0 on the left AM 1.0 on the right You can see the AM 2.0 there more box shaped has anyone else ran in to this issue?

Fixed the front plate thanks for that can't believe that was over looked. I am looking to go for EIB then to Centurion is there anything anyone see that might not pass? That would still need some tweaking?

Wow didn't even noticed the ab buttons I will fix that tonight and I have elastic between the forarm and biceps need to shorten it up and will probably get a stronger elastic. <br><br> For the everything internal it straight up nylon that pulled tight with the exception to the right side of the chest plate put on elastic strip there to help get in and out of the shell

So its been a while since i have post progress pictures went to a local Armor Party which was a major help in getting my assembly completed. Legs are done, had some issue with the sniper knee plate from what i ready it suppose to match the contour of rim for either the plate is short or i need to trim more off to get it to fit right not sure yet. Back Front The tighs came along nicely had to cut of an additional inch on the contour of the upper tighs, didn't trim the ammo box fortuantly the hole was drilled far enough down then ill be able to fix it with out having to order a new one. Front Side For the highs straping I went with the 3 inch elastic cut to 8 inches too a piece 3 1/2 x 2 piece of thin plastic that was excess from triming the tighs put some CA glue and just slaped the elastic on to it and then glued it to the front of the tighs was going to go with velcro on the end to attach to the front cod piece but I think I am going to go with the belt method found it easier to put on the thigh with the belt and then put on the armor piece. The mid section was a little more fun to do I started of by cutting 3/4 x 2 piece and then drilled 1/8 inch holes to do snaps. Tandy makes some very heavy dutty snaps found them hard to snap together and come off so made a few 3/4 x 1 for a few of the piece. I used the cover strip plastic for this had extra 3/4 ones cut. I then used a little CA glue to glue the snaps down the plastic I found it was a little if i made a mistake i can pop it off I instead to go back and cover the edges with CA glue once I liked how everything was laid out. I then just taped all the piece together so it was flush and cut 1 inch elastic to make all the connecting pieces. The AB piece was fun to work with for the side button and the belt I went out and purchased the mini Anorak Snaps. drilled 1/8 hole thru the plastic I took the drill bits and ran it thru some soap this made it easier for the snap to go thru the plastic. For the straps I did a loop and used 2 snaps to hold them in to place. So far I haven't had a need to break out the sewing machine. The back straps are adjustable I just made loops to hold straps together so that they wouldn't come lose I might go back and sew them on but for now as I make adjustments this works fine thus far. I had two sets of split rivets I ended up using the silvers ones made then pretty tight as for the CLR said no gap. for the right side took a piece plastic and put on industrial strength Velcro and then again on the ab and back plate to form a seal.
