  1. Is Loctite superglue an option as well? Or is E6000 the must use? I have been using Loctite, and am just worried that I am using the wrong glue at the moment.
  2. Here is my chest piece. Since the record dividers are only so big, I cut them at the area where there are paralell line indentations running along the sides. The pieces running under the arms are seperate, hence the clamps. I am planning on cutting a rectangular piece, and putting it behind the lines so that I can then glue the pieces to it, so they become 1 big piece. Would this pass?
  3. Btw, are there any local stores that would sell sheets of plastic? Like Hobby Lobby, or Ace Hardware?
  4. Great! Right now this is a very gradual project, and I am using local stuff at the moment.
  5. Hey guys! So on a costuming group (501st private group), I showed a FOTK chest plate I made from record dividers (The method I created was make a cut, heat it, and shape. I made gauntlets with them for a Ringwraith, and they worked wonders), and someone mentioned how they've known some people to use plastic "For Sale" signs for armor. Now my question is, if someone did this and made armor accurately, and submitted to the 501st, could it be approvable? Now of course, the only way it would be approvable is if it was bonded with fiberglass (or some other bonding substance), but I wanted to check in with you guys. If you have any pictures of an armor using this method, I would love to see them! Also, I will provide a pic of the record divider chest plate soon I may be going for 501st on this one, so hopefully it will work great!
  6. I was wondering, are you doing another run in the near future? And what the price point would be? This is just curiosity (which obviously killed the cat xD)
  7. I swear, your helmet looks just like the ones the Disney Launch Bay Stormtroopers use! If not, more accurate Out of curiosity, what is the price on the helmets?
