  1. Great progress. Can you show a photo of your exact issue that's making you consider cutting the cod? It's usually something that is only required if you are particularly short. I have found that women tend to have some misalignment between the kidney and butt plate due to hips, so you may have to add some extra strapping or some other solution there once it's all strapped together.
  2. Agreed with Joseph's points! Your canvas belt looks a bit long too.
  3. Congrats on the BBB! Wee!
  4. Making great progress!
  5. Hi Ryan, to post using Imgur, use the direct link option for sharing. Good luck on your builds!
  6. You can see the cut line on the cod, so cut off that excess. Yes, I would remove some of the return edge from the ab and the butt plates. I would recommend looking through the reference gallery and some Centurion applications to decide how much return edge you want to leave.
  7. Looking good, Jenny! Good luck!
  8. People have been sharing updates here: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/42662-anovos-fotk-armor-delivery-possibility/?page=10
  9. Looking great! Easy pass for basic. Keep an eye on that sniper knee locking in under the left thigh. You could put some foam in there to push the shin forward and push the thigh back. You may also find that you need to make some mobility cuts in the backs of the knees. Was a pleasure assisting!
  10. I'm concerned that your shim is going to break given the strain that the shins take when putting them on and taking them off. Not really sure what to recommend. I am thinking about it!
  11. I didn't have issues with the shins, though the left one can feel a little tight at times. I did use larger cover strips for my legs though, so that may have helped mitigate some of the issue.For info, I have TK Boots. I cut out the backs for mobility when bending the legs, not for fitting the shin on my actual leg. Can you close the shin when you push the top of the boots inwards?
  12. Some additional feedback on your outdoor pantsless fit test: The cover strip on the front of your left bicep looks a bit long. Do you think your forearms are too long? They look like they are getting under your handplates. And on your last posted photos: Chest to ab connection looks much better with less angle. Back to kidney overlap is definitely better too. Your shoulder bridges also look better. I think you could give these a hot water bath and add the 1/8" elastic to hold them down so they don't look so "floaty" in the back. Hope that's helpful! You're making great progress!
  13. I didn't have your back plate to kidney gap issue with my ATA, though I am shorter than you. Making the back to chest straps longer doesn't resolve the issue?
  14. Go Sha Sha! One step at a time! You'll get there!
  15. Great documentation! Loving this thread.
  16. Hi Daniel, take a look here: Take a look at other people's threads as well. They will typically list who the vendor is. Most of these folks don't have online shops, though most have Facebook pages. Hope that's helpful for you!
  17. Hi Rowen, you should use a photo hosting service to post photos here. Suggestions include imgur, Google Photos, Flickr. I am guessing you're having file size issues trying to upload directly to the FISD.
  18. Agreed with everything Greg (Wook) said. You can keep your drop boxes aligned properly by securing the elastics to the canvas belt, either with glue or velcro.
  19. I think I missed this, but it's a good catch. The thigh ammo belt looks like on the inside it is secured near the middle instead of the top corner. Can you post a photo so we can have a better look? Bit hard to see in the photos previously posted.
