Hoping this will help!? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome photos! AND Thanks too. I was planning to trim it off and I hope it works. I wanted the ammo belt to butt up exactly, so we will see it my plan to exact it off with a thin piece of metal under it will work. I am hoping they will be flush...if not, I will pull it off and re-apply:)

After more reading last night, learned quite a bit more about AP silicon hand covers, and gluing them down to rubber gloves using Locktite Plastics Bonding Sys. Also learned need to fill my shoulder covers with material before I glue them down for a better glue to contact ratio. Thanks Sean!! Working on a few things this morning!

Sean-I am far behind you in my AP build, but I will say this thread we very helpful. I learned about the silicon hand glue problem, and to fill my shoulder covers before I install them. THANK YOU! Hope to be close to submission by end of Jan. r/Mike

Thanks for all the advice! Appreciate it! Sanded them all with smoother edges, trimmed my shoulders, heat bent them, took my thighs apart and replied glue more heavily to make sure I had total coverage. Removing the glue was not that bad...I have a feeling I will be removing more in the future! Lol. Hoping to do some button painting tonight

Happy New Year! I have to say, Im so blessed for all the advice on here, help, and constant questions I ask and get help with everyday . Thank you!! Especially the ones that have let me private message them over and over. I did more trimming today! Can you check me? I am trying to trim smaller one down enough...and all the references I see are way smaller. Held temporarily with magnets Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you!!! Going to go grab one tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glued my shins last night (21 hours), thighs are drying, probably won’t touch them until Monday! Lol. Just pouting! [emoji31]

So glue needs more than 24 he’s...Boo! Overwhelmed and annoyed! Got all dressed up, and it separated before I got it around my leg. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Test fitting legs, trimming, more taping..and some glue! More to come[emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thoughts on tapering thigh cover strips? Allowed? Not encouraged? Years of sports have left them...well, LARGE! LOL. r/Mike

Arms will be 19mm each side. Shins were 22...I know, but had too. Thighs are looking like 23 tapered to 30...this allowed, passable, and won’t get me banished. LOl AND while we’re taking thighs...this spacing look okay? Thank you!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

FINALLY!! did some gluing tonight! Wahoo! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you! I have AP armor too! I will make some new cuts and repost some photos Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you! If I make them the same, I have a feeling the pieces under the cover strip may not butt up, will that be a problem for approval ? I will have to split difference and there is quit a bit more underneath side Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What if your armor will not allow your fat body?! Lol. For example, cover strip on front of forearm is 15mm, but due to size of my arms, will not allow me to cut smaller on bottom for return edge. Can anyone help? Top of forearm- Bottom of forearm- Pretty snug as is- Thank you for any help!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Work on final trimming tonight. Got my arms all done, will post a bunch of photos! Elbow area on forearms is tight and tappered a little, biceps are tight too. Guess I’m fat! Lol.

Working on my bucket today! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know I’m being paranoid, but 10 cm on each side of shin is correct for a 20 cm strip...why am I worried about cutting so much more off![emoji51][emoji51] check me?! Please!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Merry Christmas! Finally have some downtime to work on my TK for a few days. Got the S trim in, I just left it an inch longer than needed, and then squeezed the rest on the the edge, worked out great! Paint is coming along too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Question- for the S trim on my bucket, how do you keep it from coming off? Do you glue it? Any tricks you use would help! Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I may or may not be using a gloss[emoji31][emoji31]. Here's to my first big mistake[emoji849] Shiny!!!! I'll throw a coat of satin on it and send another picture[emoji846][emoji854][emoji846] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
