[TK-42413 REQUESTING ANH STUNT EIB STATUS (ANOVOS/RS) [707]]

Yep D ring is moulded on as standard on the RS blaster, yeah really chuffed with the colour match although armour is PVC

[TK-42413 REQUESTING ANH STUNT EIB STATUS (ANOVOS/RS) [707]]

Oh yeah, that's a nice build <br><br>

Why the Anovos helmet with RS armour, out of interest?

My kids (I say kids loosely) bought me the helmet at SWC last year , after of loads of research RS seemed the best fit with it, without joining the dreaded anovos waiting list and avoiding a lot of shipping cost, having said that the customer service at RS has been great and really supportive throughout my build along with everyone else in the forums.

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

After taking both bits of advice on board here with go

1. taped mesh, laid out trimmed round with scissors

2 used a bit of pipe as a dolly and gently formed edges around it

3. gently push fit into top of mic tip 

 

 

here's a a side by side of Avonos Vs movie accurate and the finished article 

 

 

 

EIB photos this weekend   then on to helmet cooling system and voice electronics

Ok cheers for the heads up on that Chris better breath in , forgot branding might affect EIB and Centurion levels as well will get right  on with those , yeah London hopefully for induction if there's room that's been my target for a while now 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

Just Got this a little while ago   

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

thanks Chris whats the  need do on the ab kidney elastics ??

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

quite a eventful 24 hrs   finished my Armour and late night session with approval photos,

 

here's a sample

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

HI bill most of the images I got were from the UKG armourers 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

i am back to finishing my TD and  just remembered to paint my TD's dome head screw heads black  

 

 

 

bit of drying time and then to sort out a first set of clearance photos   

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

hook system for the shins, this was fun !!! after much research of other builds went for placement of 25 mm from top and bottom and split the difference for the third hole sat the elastic straps back about 5 mm from the edge

 

 

New Sniper knee plate arrived

 

this time left proud of what i layed out to be trim line and will flush through once set

 

 

AT last finished those shins

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

here's a few posts that will catch up on the last week or so. Sniper knee was bothering me to much so asked the question and was able to source a new one, whilst i was waiting carried on with everything else !!!

 

shoulder straps now positioned and glued in place, (thanks to patience of my boy stand in trooper for a while  )

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

Arrrgh !!!!!!!!  so near the end think i got over excited and trimmed to much off my sniper knee plates, help!!! is this possible to save would it go through clearance ??????

 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

moving on to shoulder bridges just roughing out a bit gave me enough flex to pull them flat for a traditional score and snap approach

 

 

then i borrowed a bit of advice from crickets build and added a few spacers in the front depression of the bridge to give me a better glue surface later 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

ok nearing the finish line stuck my ab buttons on last night , good old magnets 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

well new shin has arrived  . feeling slightly more confident this far into my build here's a short storyboard for shins 

 

1. marked 5 mm return on top of shin and trimmed to that and flushed  through base returns 

2 made new templates of base sweeps for laying out any re positioning later 

3. scored and snapped 2 new cover strips 20 mm front and 25 mm rear 

4 scored and snapped on front edge 10mm away from form change 

5 joined two halves together with duct tape and sized against my shin centralizing score line across both halves at rear 

6 fitted front and rear cover strips

 

now basically back to were i was prior to messing up two weeks ago and not stressing about rear alignment to much 

 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

with one eye on EIB and even Centurion managed to source a couple of little upgrades for my bucket once I have gone through base approval.

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

a little bit of painting done, hands are not as steady as i could of hoped for 

 

 

and then whilst that's drying i finished off my belt 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

Have now glued in place shoulder bell straps, re measured for placement after feedback form test fit then reduced a bit more also went through the process of attaching shoulder to bicep to foreman in line with screen references 

 

 

and done 

 

[Chopper857's ANH TK Stunt build]

ok whilst waiting for my new shin to arrive i have stripped back down everything for a clean up adjust and fit.

 

first off re visited all the screws on the main body strapping system for a countersink and paint job 

 

 

then finally glued in place shoulder elastic and snap 

 

[Todd's first build]

Good luck mate abs or pvc ?? Believe me measure, measure doubt yourself measure again and then cut

Cheers for the words and advice gents, much appreciated
