https://youtu.be/_Dvwd8Hyh-Y Time to fire-up the Outpost and the troops - it's also time to take another ride on the TK Highway. Awwwww yeeeeah! Having lost 34 lbs since sizing my ANH Hero for basic approval and finally getting the chance to troop (what a rush!) there's some changes that need to happen before I can go tapping on the door for approval. My intent for this thread is to go over and review CRL's with reference photos. I will be using my version 2 - AP kit including the alterations I need to complete to my mission. As always, I welcome your constructive opinion and wholeheartedly appreciate the help. Now, let's get that Imperial power flowing and rock on the FISD!!![emoji38] Troopers helping Troopers WHOOO-WAH!!! https://youtu.be/tuR0aCQALDE

Try putting it in the freezer and use a twisting motion to get them off like a pop bottle cap. -

Just noticed something mate if you're aiming for EIB - your brackets look spaced a little too far from your end caps. "Thermal detonator belt clips are positioned with little to no gap between the clips and the end caps." -
Thanks for the update Joseph - über appreciated good sir!

Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
Pyrates replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
[emoji15](right eye slightly twitching) Don't mind me just waiting to see that tracking number - and no doubt about not seeing a new post notification creates concern. It's like missing part of my TK TV in the morning while I drink my coffee. Now pardon me I'm going to go back to twitching and watching this thread anxiously for a tracking number cause it's going to blow the hatches off the FISD when it happens. -
Amen to that brother!
