with summer ending my friend Ill be getting more free time for trooping man ive missed it

hey garrison brother!! yeah he was an ok guy to start especially because of whom I met him through, a good friend, but damn bro as time went on..... ugh he became more and more a pain in the an impolite person.... Ill give ou better detail at a troop were at together some time but it is sad man that it comes to that with some people.....

in the end I was able to see what people were saying, he still owes me a couple things but Im just gunna let them slide just to remove him from my contacts lol..... nuch easier that way!!

he was a nice enough guy to me as well, I received my armor from him from a job I did for him, and again he was nice enough until he deviated from the blue print design of the vacuform table he was building, I did the electrical part of it for him..... once that happened I explained to him it wouldnt work that way and when it didnt he started getting accusatory I got all my stuff and bailed out.... he still owes me a couple things but Im considering it a wash lol.... Im certainly glad to hear hes back on the up and up alot of people were complaining that he wasnt delivering. Ive always believed in second chances maybe hes turned over that new leaf

5 seconds!!?? Ill have a look at that lol thank you I messaged Alay thats exactly what i needed!!! thanks man

Hey all, I got the bug again and dusted off the TK armor, its been waaaay to long and I need to finish this!!!! so I tried my hand at trooperbay and he says he sold his last centurion strapping kit, I guess hes done selling them?? my question is I need the entire kit minus the bracket set which is the 9 piece elastic loop set for the body armor does any one know where to get this?? Im talking leg harness shoulder and bicep harness latex hand guards belt PLEEEEZ help this is lke the crucial last pieces to my puzzle!!!! thanks all

thank you it looks like a pretty good deal just they dont tell you what shipping is lol

this s trim... we just buy the length we need and its the same stuff??

Rat I had the same problem lol I even looked at trooperbay but they say its there thanks all for the info!!!

so I got my armor got my bucket.... going thru my stuff I realize I am missing parts and pieces, in the long....did some work for a less than reputable armorer (didnt know till after) my armor is up to snuff and works, in the short Im missing my rubber neck trim I believe Ive heard it called s seal or s trim?? where would a fella get a piece for his bucket thank you in advanced

thank you getting the feed back helps keep me motivated

new WIP updates!!!! got my bucket to a displayable worthy completion.... I just need the rubber neck seal?? I believe I hear it referred to as the s seal?? I also need to figure out what Im doing inside my bucket?? I also got my shins both glued and cleaned up, next for them is bra hooks and back seam glue mouth by Jim, on Flickr mesh mouth by Jim, on Flickr bucket complete by Jim, on Flickr left shin by Jim, on Flickr right shin complete by Jim, on Flickr next up.... thighs.... and its high time I start considering ordering strappage and the such

gotta do it then!!!! awesome!!!

so from what Im gathering either way is good

Hey I've been digging thru this area for over an hour so I apologize if the answer is somewhere out there... I just couldn't find it lol.... Curious about the mic tips are they flat black or painted with the same gloss as the vocoder? <br> Thanks all

and were back off and running!!!! had a pizza and armor night last night getting some things done... I was slacking and didnt post a couple of pics of the bucket so itll come as a surprise that its gotten pretty far lol with no further ado group photo...minus me lol group photo by Jim, on Flickr touch ups touch ups by Jim, on Flickr we all know these tools!!! lol tools of the trade by Jim, on Flickr gluey time!!! gluey by Jim, on Flickr some bucket shots frown by Jim, on Flickr TK bucket photo bomb LOL ear (rank bar) by Jim, on Flickr I think im gunna do some eye trimming and get my lens set today

thanks guys, I have been looking thru the builds threads and Ukswrath is amazing!!! Ill be updating this post from time to time with news on the WIP!!!! stay tuned lol

Just got my armor friday!!! super stoked to get this going Im gunna have A TON!!!!!! of questions...... for now I think Im gunna go to trooper bay to get the bucket decals..... I most certainly am not an artist and as much as I would like to paint it my self..... well lets just say I was a bit peeved when I got my bucket and it wasnt painted heres the beginnings.... got my boots from TK boots, heard a rumor I ay have some difficulties fitting the calf armor to these boots any thoughts?? tk boots by Jim, on Flickr heres the bucket... unpainted pre fin bucket by Jim, on Flickr and heres the armor!!!! pre fin armor by Jim, on Flickr I will be coming here for moral support and LOTS of help lol

Thank you Paul, it helps me rest easier knowing Im not ruffling feathers and also getting (apparently hopefully getting lol ) a good set of armor.... and yes I have been on the receiving end of his finger when it comes to 501st, I guess knowing my status as being in approval state now with my TS and shooting for 501st with this TK..... he has openly told me what he thinks about the organization, I just bit my lip cuz I just want the armor and be done lol

YES!!!! TK boots already sent me an order confirmation they will be shipping next week as far as armor kit, well I have another post open in the armory "hard parts" section, kind of a long story lol. I met an armorer through a mutual friend ( another armorer and a reputable source) I did some tradsies for an armor kit through TE?? I believe is the name..... a fella named Matt.... Im gunna work hard to get this armor approved, I had no clue to his shade due to this deal being done before I signed up here at the FISD, what ever it takes my man

thank you all for the info, I was curious about Matt because it was already a done deal ..... I dont want to rub any one the wrong way thats why I have all these questions. I met him through a mutual friend ( a very reputable source even on these boards) I agreed to do some electrical work for trades in armor ( Im an electrician by trade, obvi lol ) the armor is already done and Im getting it next week thats why I was concerned about its approval.... with that being said Ive also got it on good authority ( through the reputable source ) that his molds are legit ( not trying to stir a pot or get any thing started please dont think that ) but if it makes any one feel better Ive also got it on good authority ( himself telling me lol ) hes done with star wars armor lol. Also I use these boards and the posts on here to find all good resources to get my other parts from..... I hope Im not snubbing any one by using his armor, please know that I did the work and got the armor before knowing what he was about and signing up with FISD thanks guys and gals Jimsidious
