  1. Yes I do, will get some pics up later Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Thanks bro, only approved 2 weeks ago, have 2 missions under my belt and really want to push for EIB this week! Just making sure everything is in place so approvers don't waste their time. Thanks for your ongoing support on this thread, it really helps! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Next mission is July 4th, will be able To post a pic then because trying it on means nothing as during photocalls I always get my arms moved around! Example from Friday night! I'm on the left! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Ok, I removed the return edge which was enormous, almost completely, will get some pics up soon! You can see the difference! PD: I have obviously still not sanded the edge Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I would add the SDS version which is excellent and the Doopydoos kit which is also very popular! I will add that the SDS can be pricey but all it needs is the end ring for level 2 certification. Thw Doopys is always out of stock, add your email for new received stock notification. It is an inexpensive DIY kit if you are into that. I have the SDS and a doopys on the way Great response Kman!

  6. I use the Aker 3350 and excellent results for now! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Will research the hot bath method and see how it's done! Pretty scared of breaking anything as replacements from SDS are pricey! Thanks for your time!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Thanks guys, will get rid of the return edges. I shortened the staps and my issue was that the bell was forced outwards near the biceps and looked weird. Will try my best and get some pics up this weekend. I only receives my TK last week but my armor is ready for EIB and I don't have much left for centurion! Thanks once again!

  9. Hi, I have seen EIB requests requiring for shoulder bells to virtually touch the chest bridges. Due to the size of my shoulders/ traps / back, this is close to impossible for me. What could you suggest? I am 1,86 and 114 kilos and very broad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Great work! Good luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Oscar, congrats on a job well done and thanks for inspiring us bigger troops in knowing that we can also reach Centurion level!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Great work Oscar, looking forward to your Centurion Status my friend!
  13. Basic level, yes! Check the CRL, as there are also 3 bumps to helmet ear versus 4 amongst other differences (not many) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Are these off Amazon? They look like the ones I bought, they also have a seam down front I returned them immediately without opening the box! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I used acetone and toilet paper, came off in seconds Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Loving this armor! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  18. Here is another pic of the thigh piece, same situation. Am I being too perfectionist for Level 1? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Hi 501 Family! Once again, I need your expertise in these last stages I am approaching the final stretch at last and need some advice - when i habe finished sanding down the extension joints on thighs, calves and kidney plate, from so much sanding, the abs paste has darkened, making the joint slightly visible from afar. Any advice on how I can make it white again? This is important as I would like to request basic membership in 48h approx Thanks for your help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Thanks buddy! Will do my best tonight and see the results! Fingers are hurting from so much sanding Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Looking good!!! How are you going to cover the visible joints, abs paste? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Consistency seems correct, it's creamy. I believe I have been applyung way too little and not giving lt enough time. I applied a thicker line last night and will attempt sanding after work ----------- Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Added another couple of coats and no success, most of the area around it has also been sanded.... Will try and get someone from the local garrison to come around------------- Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Thanks! Will post again tomorrow as I just added another "coat"! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. That's what I am using! It just doesn't fill it all in ince sanded, you can clearly see the joint Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
