[I need help sourcing non-resin materials for an E-11 build]

An old cutting board is a good source for plastic. It comes in a wide variety of colours, and can be shaped nicely with a sharp blade/chisel.
Good luck and looking forward to your build!.

Hi Gwithian

 

Your build is looking great!

 

For the teeth I used a piece of old window screen. It's light, easy to mold, and usually is already black or grey. Save the strainer for food..haha

But with that said, a few months later I removed the screen bcz I heard the screen used lids were left open. I wanted to get a accurate as I could.

 

Keep up the good work!

[KingYeti's E-11 Build]

I put some wooden dowels in mine. 3/8 in the barrel and 1 1/4 through the main body. No spring action, but it held up after I dropped it.. lol.

A lot of sanding...

[HOWTO: Update Anovos Belt without destroying rivet covers]

That's a great idea! I broke a button cover when doing mine and had to make one from scraps and ABS paste... yours looks like a smarter route.

Thank you for the help and encouragement on my shims. I received my legion number today of TD84414. I'm extremely happy about it and will now be starting on my T-21 build so I can emulate TD tuck and roll. Then fieldpack, maybe a better E-11, some macro binoculars,..etc.. I have a feeling this will be a long and very enjoyable experience.

 

Here's a few pics.

And thanks again. The white armor site was invaluable.

[Ukswrath's ANOVOS TK build (stunt)]

Hi Tony. Your thread has been extremely helpful throughout my build, so first. Thank you.

 

I was wondering about shin height placement on my leg. Should the top of the shin line up with the bottom of my knee cap?

Thanks

Jon.

Looks great! Your doing a great job. Planning on starting my T21 on Thursday. But I must admit, a few kit parts mixed with some do-it-yourself sounds like a perfect balance.

Thanks for the advise. This is what it looks like after the first coat.

A few pits and ridge to clean up with another coat before fine sanding. But it was it's going well so far.

Thanks for the advise! I actually did have my eye on my wife's nail polish remover... haha

I'll be cutting those notches later today.

Hi my name is Jon and a long time fan, first time builder. My aim is to get centurion status and am wondering about ab button painting. I've read that there are two colour's of blue used out there. Midnight blue - more of a traditional colour, and or French blue - current colour. Is that correct? And can I use the midnight blue for centurion?

 

Also, I had to add shims to my kidney and if there's any tips on filling in the ridge to make it look seamless would be great. Thank you.

 

 

Still needs to be trimmed to length. Will be about a 2" extension.

Looks really good. As a new builder, these centurion status requests have been very helpful. Thank you and congratulations!

[Stretching Tk boots]

Hello all interested

 

I'm Jon and recently received my new Tk boots. I went for a 1/2 size larger rather than 1 1/2. But I do have a wide foot ( hockey skate - EE )and found the boots to be uncomfortably tight.

 

Picked up a shoe stretcher ( $35 cdn ) and within 24hrs they fit incredibly better. Night and day!... here's some picks, I tried to get some side close ups to show that there is no signs of leather distress. Tkboots = high quality.. in my opinion.

 

Steps

-Removed insoles.

- 15 spays of leather stretcher.

- hand tighten to quite snug, plus a little.

- wait... haha

-repeat if needed.. was told smaller stretches are far better than trying to do it all at once.

 

Hope it helps or found interesting
