Looks awesome !!! I'm on Jim's wait list as well. I have a few questions, which gaskets are your favourite? And what did you do with the inside of the armour? Sand and wash? Paint it after sanding / washing?

Ya, I think it would be pricey ... They wanted $79 USD to ship to Canada, can't imagine trans-pacific cost lol

Awesome, thank you!!! Couldn't have done without all the help the forum and its members have given, cheers Dave.

Congrats !!!

Congrats !!!

What are people's thoughts on Jim's helmet vs the ANOVOS helmets? And does Jim's come with the mic tip?

Hey Tony, thanks for the awesome thread and all the advice you have given. Have a question about your Hovi mic tips and the Anovos helmet, as I am considering purchasing some. When I was upgrading the stock mic tips I noted the helmet is PAPER THIN where they attach. Did you reinforce the area at all, or view this as a problem when you installed your speaker tips on this helmet? Cheers Dave

Well, got some more work done on my pack. Almost complete now, so I thought I'd do a "dress rehersal". Thoughts? Enjoy ...

once again, congrats

Congrats

A popular one with the TD's is made by a member over on the MEPD forums ... Trooper1 I think ... Has an on going sales thread over there. I believe most of the swat guys use trooper1 pauldrons

Well, here's my first attempt at weathering , thoughts ?

Sorry for the double pic ... Silly iPhone ... Anyhow that's a trooper bay pauldron and pouch

Take a look at my thread ... There's a picture of the trooper bay orange pauldron on there

Made some more progress on my pack ... And got some painting done ...--------------- Now for some weathering and assembly I guess

Congrats, that's awesome !!!

Awesome, looks great, congrats to you

Well thanks for the input .. made another trip to Michael's and found a "memory box" for the radio to replace the plastic one. I can;t seem to find white caps for the PVC pipe, so I think I'l just go with plan A and paint teh orange ones. Was able to get a little bit done over the otherwise really busy weekend. Again thanks fro the input, Cheers Dave ----------

Thanks for the advice ... your pack looks awesome BTW I found an Amour All container that is smaller than the Lysol one, think I'll use that. The containers are pretty close .. also dealing with the imperial - metric conversions too ;P

Sorry my pictures disappeared ;( -----------

Hey all, I have a few questions regarding HWT troopers. I'm new to the 501 st and FISD, having just finished my first build with an ANOVOS kit ( and recvently recived my ANH Stunt EIB approval). when I first purchaed the kit, I had every intention of going TD with it, so I purchased a pauldron and pouches from trooperbay. However, once I started building the kit, I just couldn't bring myself to permanently dirty it up lol. I really love the look of the pauldron and pouches, so this brings me to HWT. I have a few questions if you don't mind<br><br> 1. Are the trooper bay pauldron / pouches acceptable for all levels of approval, or will I need to invest in a trooper1 pauldron and different pouches? Here's a picture of mine My next few questions are in regards to the pack. I'm Canadian and as some my know, the Canadian / US exchange rate is terrible right now lol. I looked into ordering the oil pan from Bavarian Auto Sports, however the $12 item carries a $70 shipping fee to western Canada and with the exchange rate, I'm not really wanting to spend over a $100 Canadian on a $12 item. I've searched high and low for something similar locally and found a 12.5 q oil pan at Walmart. I've also just spent the last 3 hrs looking at "food containers" to use for the boxes. after trips to the Dollar Store, Super Store, Sobey's Safeway and Walmart, I could not find anything that "exactly matches" the ones Ukswrath used in his build, so I settle for as close as I could get. 2.What do you think of the overall dimensions of this oil pan and the boxes I found? acceptable? I was also considering simply attaching the lids of the containers to the oil pan and then using the "premade clips" to hold the boxes onto the pack 3. is this acceptable? Thanks for your time all, cheers Dave
