ninjaflex is an exercise in frustration for sure

Thanks, hey 101st Airborne Pukin Buzzard here '87-90

Hi Y'all, Thought I'd share my experience with those frustrating shins and what I came up with to make them easier to get in and out of. I'd like to disclose that I have only really studied UKSWRATH's Anovos TK Build Guide and Russellr2d2's ATA Armor Build so it is very possible someone else has been doing the same thing all along but my buddy said he'd never seen it and encouraged me to post it. If it is old news, sorry to waste your time. My shins are an extension of Russell's slot idea http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/29569-ata-armor-build-my-first-tk/page-8 (or whoever came up with it before him, that's where i saw it). I tried it like his with the channel down the middle and the velcro tabs at the top and bottom keeping it together but my shins were tight and i could never get my fingers in there easily enough to secure or unsecure the velcro. A great idea but an exercise in frustration for me. I thought it might be easier to swap out the velcro tabs for magnet tabs. I bought some thin earth magnets and designed and printed 3d straps using ninjaflex (rubber) on my 3d printer. I also made rubber keepers for the non-strap side which I glued onto the inner shins where the fuzzy velcro was. The hardest part was finding a glue that would hold the magnets to the rubber and i ended up having the most success with G-Lock BLU-GLU archery fletching cement. I tried several different attachment points as you can see my messy insides but the final setup seems to work pretty well. For the inside of the channel, I used an extra wide strip to make it stronger and easier to line up the cover strip. I guess the rest is self-explanatory. Here are some pics and a video of the enclosure in action.

well done, i need to work on this with my anovos i think i have everything for it done using ukswrath's guide. ill be watching how it goes for you.
