    Yes. Going to join Ohio Garrison. Right now I'm going for basic. I will be upgrading asap to get to Centurion.

    Ripped off other shims. Didn't look right. Re did it and looks better. Will takes some paste and sanding. But I'm happy . https://photos.app.goo.gl/SfE8R4F6tuhGv9A2A

    I tried that one app. Couldn't get it to work. I have an S8. I'd love to though

    Measured shims and made joint strips . My shims are 2 inches wide. I made them a bit bigger do I can trim if needed. I measured my true waist, 41". Then I mated the ab and kidney with tape, 37.5 ". Did the math to get shim size equal on both sides. https://photos.app.goo.gl/khRsFmJxSnshepcn8

    Hi all! Here is a mock up before fastening. I'm finding that leaving it in a mock up over night helps with some fitting. Tell me what you think. https://photos.app.goo.gl/1SH9NNdeSQEjxTJy8

    How wide are your thigh strips? I made mine 23mm

    I'm thinking I need shims? Does this mock up seem ok? https://photos.app.goo.gl/tkzfZ5GCrxB3thU68

    My size is 5'9", 210. If you are around same size, with pics, let me know. Most guys are rails it seems. No offense.

    Thanks. Unfortunately I am not 5' 11" 165lbs. Looks like shims then.

    I have seen videos, images, read about builds a lot. I am seeing mixed things about a gap (black undersuit showing)on the sides. Is there supposed to be no gap when ab and kidney joined at the sides? I haven't got to this point yet. But close, and need the right input. https://photos.app.goo.gl/snXZawFRYRs49VSA6

    I think my ab should be positioned lower. When I raise me left leg, I don't get much interference. Is there a maximum gap to see black, between cod and thigh pieces? https://photos.app.goo.gl/BEDENnMTqibB3t9h9

    Let me know what you guys think. feels good. Want expert view though. Before I glue. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zXA1asdUoKGccG7XA

    Yea it does help, thanks. What do you think. My right is a bit more snug. https://photos.app.goo.gl/jPS7nZLX2ywuvySi8

    I am getting ready to start work on my calves. I'm looking for images of calves being fitted to estimate what to trim. Anything will help.
  18. aardvark891
    Does this look ok? Or does gap need to be a bit more snug? It feels a bit loose but I assume straps will help?https://photos.app.goo.gl/RTM5gkxkqXmg4uf68

    First glued part. Sewing my own hooks as well. http://imgur.com/a/GxRlRTn

    It feels tight on lower area. I know I need more trimming, but I'm being a bit cautious about it.

    How long do you let it sit in bath water? Isn't it almost boiling heat?

      Hi man, are you referring to my shins in my ANH build? If so I am still new to this and have had most success pouring boiling water over the parts, then holding them in the shape I want.

       

      I'm gonna try boiling more water and put it all in a tall bucket and submerge the shin as it seems the way to go if you don't have a huge pot.

    My first kit. Trimming pieces down. I'm noticing my body is a bit bigger than what I thought. Is a hot bath the best way to loosen up the plastic or are there other techniques that have been used?

    I will have images soon. Out of town for work
