  1. We may well end up doing that. The final choice will come down to cost and waitlist time

     

    Paul,

     

    Im in Oakville, I have contacted this person for fun about the armor, I do know of the builder and they have a bit of a bad rap here, as others have suggested stay clear of it and get something from a vetted builder. 

     

    Cant go wrong with AP, Mark is quick at getting orders out.. Just keep in mind his armor is one of the smallest available, he has made a new Ab plate to fit bigger waisted troopers (about 42 inches), but chest and back still remain tiny (40-47 inch chest). 5'8-6'1 150-200lbs and it fits like a glove,.. Any bigger RT-MOD or AM 2.0 is the best bet.. 

     

    Hope to see you trooping soon, a lot of local members around to assist you..

  2. Glad I could help some. Not everything requires Velcro as some items just aren't moved around a lot too, but that's up to you. <br><br>

    Jawa looks awesome, but I think the TK is cooler on the body at least lol. Glad you got out and about in the armour, and was great to meet you. My wife says, "Hello!" Too lol

     

    Great to meet you and your wife finally at the troop this weekend /wave  :duim:

  3. Don't worry Torok.. we'll sort it out :) And "Chilly" and I already spoke about the strapping etc.

     

    Yup ive got everything needed to get it done (i always buy extra), thats not an issue.. Using CA can have it done in 2 days max (after trimmed and cover strips made) But i would prefer to use e6000 because you never know and i wouldn't CA any suit that wasn't mine...

     

    So, after armor arrives i should have it ready for strapping in 3-5 days (Work depending) as Chris said, ill have it strapped in 30-60 min no problem. and then its just final fitting ect.. Easy as pie  :jc_doublethumbup:

  4. Are they the screws you got with the AP kit? I just got EIB with those but they suggest they be replaced for Centurion. Close, but not perfect.

  5. Its a little off,  I needed chest, back and bells, 49.5 inch chest AP was a tad too small..  i did post some comparisons in hard armor

    Last picture of the shoulder bells you can see the difference in shade of white as my AP chest and back were still weathered at this point..

  6. Looking good David, good luck on centurion. 

     

    I also had the same issues with chest, back gaps but much worse(5+ inches)..  Justin did a great job bringing his in as much as he could (you two are about the same dimensions), here is the post..  

    http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/37297-shoulder-bell-sizes/?hl=gaps  Post 7 and on..  

     

    Lee Valley Tools is another option for the screws, thats where i got mine..
