Also take a look at UKSWRATH thread on support pads for the bracket system your using. here http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36372-how-to-support-pads-for-mr-nostripes-bracket-system/?hl=%2Bbracket+%2Bpads And like others have said take your time and enjoy, the only deadline you have is the one you put on yourself. Any questions post pictures & ask!!

TK 1636 does a great video series on a complete build you can see him size up for shims in this video https://youtu.be/y-ED5qf51-U or I would go through UKSWRATH build here a follow how he creates the joints on all of the limbs with cover strips on the inside first to give it a solid butt jounint. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/31920-ukswraths-am-10-build/

Always a great read! Fantastic job as always crew!!

Great work Troopers!

Great post & Congratulations Teresa!!

Great work Trooper! TK Boots don't look so bad after seeing this.

Thanks Robert! I have a few split rivets left over from my build so I'll give that a shot! Thanks Joseph, I have some split rivets left over from my build & wanted to be sure (kicking myself for missing this during my initial build)

For level two certification (if applicable): Thigh ammo belt is attached to thigh with a solid head rivet or fastener in the upper corner and fastened to the lower thigh ridge. The solid head rivet attachment is painted white. Standard pop rivets are not allowed The bottom corners of the thigh ammo belt are rounded off My question is are the split rivets used to attach the kidneys to the ab approvable/acceptable to attach the thigh ammo or do I need to use a different rivet? Thanks

Congrats!!

A couple of these almost had coffee coming out of my nose lol!! <br> Best of luck to all!

Great job Troopers!

Just hold my blaster and watch this!!

Wait a second are you sure this was in the read this first section!!

Great time with the Charlotte Stonecrabs, it was a hot one for sure so hydration was key.

Your getting close, I went through the same thing with Celebration. Create a punch list and cross them off as you go along I found that it helped me not feel so overwhelmed with a deadline coming up fast.

Second this, But at a minimum I carry a roll of white duct tape,super glue & two different lengths (3"/4") pre made elastic snaps

Welcome to FISD Start with http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/38-getting-started-read-this-first/ You should find a ton of research material and give you an idea of what direction to go.

Listings like this should be posted in the newbie section on what not to buy!

Great build and it showed up in your first troop with her! The finished armor is outstanding!

I actually just got contacts for this very reason! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

With a ton of help from all the guys on this board I was able to get my build completed and approved in time for Celebration, I packed my armor to be part of the photos and to volunteer if needed! Mission escort R2KT along with the rest of the droids on parade TROOPERS TK92785 TK22212 TK11463 What an absolute blast! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Most of our first reaction is to stay away from ebay at all cost!! It has a two piece cap & back which can be a pain in the rear to line up! Go through http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/11538-the-various-types-of-armor-and-where-to-find-them/ and you should be able to find a reputable vetted seller to get what you need!

Welcome to the FISD Alex, I would start by reading http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/38-getting-started-read-this-first/ And make sure you sign up on the Florida forums as well. http://www.fl501st.com

Anyone know if we have a staging/changing area for blast a trooper?

What a jammed packed edition this month and next month look like its should be the same with Celebration recaps! As for the March for 1000 I know I'm hoping to join the ranks and just printed out the requirements & checklist to begin the process.
