Looks amazing! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks bro! Those sniper plates don’t fit! Lol...but I love it! Thank you for the constant encouragement! I’m almost there! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shins, attached dreaded AP sniper and reinforced insides with additional strips. Still need to clean off excess glue, sand bottoms to shape of my boots, fit them, and add back cover strip and Velcro. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

More work tonight. 1st tube of E6000...I feel like I’m getting somewhere!

I’m no expert,but based off my experience, cut the minimum first, leave as much as possible until you have a chance to blue tape it on your body to see how it fits. If you cut to much off, it sucks to try to fix it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hope removing it will help. I’m struggling with one thigh being almost 1 inch larger! (Geezzzzzzz!) Lol. This one after I re-glue it will only have a 8mm gap, and the strip will cover the template cut line. Bahaha! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! I took off a little, but I will lose it all once this dries. Thanks for being so helpful! #BroHug

Experiment time! Trying this! Lol! I’m becoming a pro at removing e6000! Once I figure out my size, I will fill it in properly and prep for the abs paste nightmare! Lol

Thanks Dude! I was trying to avoid it! #beingfatsucks LOL. Yours turned out so awesome!!

Daniel-Thanks for all your help! I have decided my thighs don't like me on this build, Grrrrrrr!! After a few whirls at assembling, and disassembling...finally have the LEFT front where I want it...I think. Still need to redo the RIGHT. Need to peel glue for a while I measured my thighs with a soft cloth tape, one is 26.5, other is 27.25....(holy moly!!!). I plan to use a thin plastic for sale sign underneath, and fill in the gaps, and put a cover strip over it. What can I do about the pre-cut line out there that will show on the top 2-4 inches?

That paint looks awesome!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m going to disassemble and reassemble with less return edge sticking outside the side of the cover strip. AND place the cover strip up slightly higher. After looking at my other thigh, this one sucks! The more I glue, the more comfortable I’m getting. Question! Webbing on all interior snaps? Elastic on chest to ab?

1st- awesome work!!! 2nd- Hope it’s okay I hijack your thread for a question. Can I ask about these bump? I read in another post to remove them...but I’m not sure what they are?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats! Great thread, and great info. Hoping to get my AP approved in the next month...back to building:) r/Mike

A little more done tonight! Looks better than I deserve!!! [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Reinforcing the insides! Cheap for sale sign. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finally! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A glove like this makes E6000 super easy...read it somewhere on the forums, not to mention my fingers were being rubbed raw Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! I decided to only heat it a few seconds, and it seems to fit better too after a test fit. After a “little heat” and @Kredal messaging me to stop! Thanks brother! LOL Test fit tonight, still have more to trim, but planning to wait until strapping and other parts are attached. I will trim the sides last. Removed the glue on both shins and rebuilding with proper amount of glue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welp! Used this...not perfect, but better Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any recommendations? Proving difficult to fit when it is pulled to one side, almost bent! I’m not sure I have a pot big enough to try to shape a little. I have a garage heater that I could heat it up with Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
