How much trimming should I do for the back plate?? Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Looking for gap adjustments and proper placement of armor on my body... Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Left side adjustment... Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Here is what it looks like.. that's the gap right now on both sides.... Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

So I am a little worried about my ab section connecting with my kidney piece. It's definitely not going to be flush. Is that a problem against me getting into the 501st?? It's been 4 years, my body has changed slightly from when I bought this thing... lol Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Also, how does my TD look?? And how am I supposed to do these clips? RS didn't send them bent already... Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

I am having a hard time figuring out which side is which for the thigh pieces. It's an RS kit. Is there an easy way?? Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Yeah, I am definitely going to be doing the double snaps then. If I wanted to make those myself instead of buying the straps from TrooperBay or somewheres, is there a link to custom made ones in here?? Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Thank you for the links! Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

I love the diagram, thank you! Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Hey folks! It's been a bit since I was around these parts. I had received my BBB of goodies back in 2018 and begin my journey. Things came to a halt in 2019, life got busy and the build got put on the back burner. Now 2022, life is still busy, but I am now able to spend time on the build. So back at it I go! Will post a few pictures when I get home later! Have a question though, probably one of many... which system does everyone prefer underneath the torso armor, straps or hooks? Not sure what to purchase... Thanks! Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

You are doing a great job! Keep it up! Love the use of zip-ties.

Thank you! My nerves are still on edge everytime I cut... Lol. Don't want to make too big of a mistake. Having fun though! Sent from my LG-H873 using Tapatalk

Thankd@justjoseph63 I was planning on trimming most of the return edges anyways... Sent from my LG-H873 using Tapatalk

Biceps are coming together pretty good. I think I am going to leave the biceps for now and start on the forearms. When I am happy with the forearms, I will take a test fit with both biceps and forearms together. No glue for a while. Want to be able to correct if I need to. And plus, haven't bought any e6000 yet.... Hehe! That way, I am not tempted to use it. I will take a few more pictures of the biceps when I get home later. Capture a few more sides for you all to see. Stay tuned! Sent from my LG-H873 using Tapatalk
