Yes, I don’t miss the frustration of putting on my sniper knee plate- awesome job! If you like, you can fill the underside using white silicone to fill that space. ( to smooth it out you can use a damp finger [spit or water - take your pick]) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Hope I’m not too late mate: Bicep hooks: I used a piece of cover strip abs 3/4” wide by 4” long Mark one end in two segments 1” long, once done trim and sand the edges of the piece so it doesn’t fray the elastic. Break out a heat gun, and have another piece of abs cover strip available to help form the abs when it’s malleable. Heat up the abs, keeping 4” to 8” away, I highly recommend having some heat resistant gloves to avoid burning yourself. You will see the abs start to soften, once this starts to happen, place your other piece of abs on the warm abs and begin to fold it over. Take your time shaping the abs into position, and I highly recommend doing a few practice runs. Once you have the hook shaped, it can be tightened up applying some more heat, and a ruler. Next heat the abs again to shape the bicep hook to match the contours of your bicep.

I've used a putty knife with a small hammer to gently tap the seams and had good success. Slowly tap the seams until they pop and don't rush. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Glad to hear you're safe mate - and shocked to see how you've progressed in the last week. I used E-6000 for my hand guards, yes it's a lot more time consuming however they haven't peeled off yet. I used flat styrofoam 1-1/2" to trace out my the back of my hand so it stretched the rubber glove wide enough to give a nice flat surface to adhere to. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/34182-pyrates-ap-build-and-journey-to-the-501st/?do=findComment&comment=472995 Hope that helps mate!
