Rookie builds a rs anh-stunt tk
Lupus1202 replied to Lupus1202's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
After a long time, many things happenened in life and i think it´s time to reshape my helmet, not sattisfied with the forehead. But i did a mistake. I don´t use srews and nuts, i used rivets. So ... why shouldn´t i use a dremel to get the rivets out? And the answer is, because the rivets get hot and melt throw the abs ... and the more important thing is, the rivets get very hot. So allways protect your fingers, or you get burned ... Yes, you are correct. It´s the sign of a hot rivet. But after all, i am pleased how the frown looks now. -
Thank you Glen. I saw this thread befor and if i am not wrong at all, he also uses two kinds of fabric and covers the more stable with the wither one?!?!? Cheers Wolfgang

Got my bbb from Ross Walmsley (RWA Creations) i orderd some pieces of canvas fabric for the belt. The natural looking is more stable, over 600g/m², the white one is 350g/m². So i got several options. Less layers of the natural fabric and then dye it, or more layers of the white one, maybe with inlay. Your opinions please. Cheers Wolfgang

Hello Paul, for better understanding some pictures: the left one: the right one: the right one is on the left side, the larger one: -

Assembling the lower arms, the left one came out nice and round. The right one is more oval in diameter and it´s larger in hight. RS send me an assembling guide with pictures, where the outer half of the right arm is cut of at the wrist and the inner half is a little bit trimmed at the elle bow so they are equal in hight. It will maybe look nicer, but is it wright??? -

Your opinion on the result ladies and gents. I know i have to cut the returnedges, but i am pretty happy with it. Some sanding here and there an it will fit perfectly. By the way, 190mm at the top of the bicep, 170mm at the bottom. -

A long time ago i started this thread and it´s time to get back on the way. So after i ruined the backside of the right bicep by cutting to much off, i had to order a new piece and get to the left side ... As you can see, i marked 190mm + 7,5mm both sides. -
The Snake's Terrifying & Totally Amateur AM ANH Stunt Build
Lupus1202 replied to The Snake's topic in ANH Build Threads
Sorry, if i have to say that, but the picture and the measurements are wrong with the belt. 1. The angle in the corners is 90 degree, not 45. 2. A half of an inch is nearly 13mm. If that is so and the angle is square, the measurement on top of the belt is also 13mm and not 10mm. I know the same picture in inch measuements and there the figuring is wright. Greetings Wolfgang -
Hey Ian, saw your pictures at FB in the sun. Great! 1.: What if you smaller the length of the ab and kidney strapping. Maybe you have to open the split rivets. (excuse my english) Could it be the strapps are too elastic, cause of their length so they won´t fix the ab and kidney in right position. 2.: Please don´t do it. In my opinion you take a piece af the rs spirit. Buti won´t tell you what to do. Greets Wolfgang

Hello Frank No. No screws in the moment, just a little bit tape on the top and holding with my hand at the tube. -

Ladies and gents, trimmed the ears yesterday. Right looks pretty good, but the left one is a little bit tricky. I don´t want to change the form of the earpiece, but don´t think, this can be wright??? Your opinions and advice is asked. -

I think i found the mistake i´ve done. Trimm less, than i should do. http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=c610fc-1527253035.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=b10a3c-1527253087.jpg aaaaand ... command back!!! I didn´t cut at the lines, just a little bit with the sandroll and my dremel so the sides fit better to the tubes. http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=1d5251-1527254042.jpg But after all, i have to drill the holes some mm back. -

Hey Gil, i will post more pictures tomorrow. At the top of the faceplate i cut a piece, maybe 2cm high and from side to side. Your advice to fix it more with tape helps me alot, so i can see more how it looks like. More to come tomorrow! -

Next step, connecting faceplat and back. But first make some marks. I drilled the rivethole and marked the holemarks on the faceplate and fixed both pieces together. Unfortunetaly a gap apears: http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=d480fd-1527093873.jpg I fxed both pieces, so the frown attached smooth the faceplate and marked the future drillholes: http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=062586-1527093961.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=2e506c-1527093992.jpg In germany we would ask now the so called Gretchenfrage. Drill the holes where the marks are on the plate, or prefer to got an screen look? "help" -

After an hour of dremeltime and sanding ... http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=41f6fa-1526916829.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=4a8279-1526916940.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=75b392-1526917160.jpg I think i´m fine with the teeth but i think, the eyes could be cut out more? -

Lupus1202 replied to Lupus1202's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
So ... next step ... cutting the eyes and the toothholes. First ... marking them. Is it right that it don´t matter if you cut 4 teethholes, or 5 teethholes? I take this to compare with. http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=4bf748-1526909374.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=bd96fd-1526909588.jpg http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=c3f624-1526909612.jpg Sorry that they are upside down. -
