I think your brow looks great but if you decide to remove the rivets here is a great walk through: Removing rivets Like you found out already, the drill bit will heat up the rivet, if you spend to much time drilling you will just melt the entire size of the rivet. Use a pair of pliers on the rounded head of the rivet to hold it steady and drill, use a sharp bit and only drill for 2 seconds, then wait 5, then 2 seconds, then wait 5, this way it doesn't heat up to much. It really should only take 2 seconds to cut it back just enough to get it through. You might use a pair of cutters to cut the back off as much as possible, less for the drill to have to get through. I grab the back with pliers and squeeze, then twist, takes the head off and I only have to drill for one second to get it clean past the washer so it can come out. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?/topic/20913-Removing-rivets/page__view__findpost__p__258390

Awesome work my friend - Git'r'done! [emoji106][emoji38]

I will see if I can track down some thermoplastics in your area of the woods/outback [emoji106][emoji12]

Deadly work mate! Oober glad I could help - I have found the hard hat liner provides great circulation and installed it using Velcro so it makes it fast to adjust to comfort

(Take a close look at those buckets lol[emoji6])

Much appreciated Jason - your camaraderie and friendship are absolute gold mate. I look forward to watching and being there for that build when you get the go. Considering you like that hot sand environment you're one of the coolest Sandy's I know [emoji106][emoji6] cheers brother!

Angie, Sole's are available at Mark's Workwarehouse http://www.shopping-canada.com/stores-brands/marks-work-wearhouse/ontario [emoji106][emoji6]

Possibly at your local Wally World - Craft Area as well

Looking frosty!

Absolutely my pleasure Jin - having you and Gary made it like riding Motocycles along Route 66 all the way to the gates of the 501st.

Always here brother [emoji106][emoji6]

Slightly dampen the q-tip before using - I used my tongue on the q-tip before dabbing it into a small amount of paint thinner to remove excess paint - hope that helps mate

Owwwie - not a pleasant feeling indeed and hope you're feeling better again soon.

Awesome work mate!

Beautiful mate - keep it up!

Music to my ears my friend

Each trooper is different depending on their size - it's recommended to have approximately 1/2" between your body and the armor - then double check reference photos. Here's another thread to help along mate - it's another TonyTV thread that I found priceless during my build (plus it's short too so you can bounce back and forth more easily) ukswrath's AM 1.0, ATA bucket build http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?/topic/31920-ukswrath%27s-AM-1%2E0%2C-ATA-bucket-build

That's an amazing story! Many congratulations to you TK - 28401 (fist bump)!

Finally got a chance to caught up on your thread - and now I really can't wait to get my bucket from TM. Following along and pardon the drooling over your new armor - can't wait to watch the rest!
