Exactly it’s all done through the detachment here so go for it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Jimmy welcome to FISD. A TK build is time consuming and expensive. There is no need to rush through things you can take your time the Empire will never fall so there is always time to join. Have you reached out to your local garrison? We can help here online but sometimes is nicer to have some hands on help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think you need to get clarification from the GML as to what they want you to do. Is it possible to meet up with the GML? Maybe get some hands on guidance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try lifting the back piece up a bit and see if that helps? I’m not quite seeing what you mean with that one. As for the other question. You can trim the return. Maybe some pics of you wearing it would help. I’m not sure if you said it or not but who is the armor maker? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You said you were planning on doing basic? There are snaps on the rear posterior plate in the groin which aren’t needed for basic and can be nonfunctioning. You can add them and use them as snaps and it’ll get you one step closer to EIB or Centurion if you choose. i personally use a “parachute buckle” to keep mine together. It’s a preference I’m not a snap fan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is a guy with a huge video camera in the background. You should have gotten his number and asked for a copy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to the forums. I do not live anywhere near you I’m in the states but I’m sure we can help you find someone local that can direct you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is a Tk on Instagram who runs 5K races in his armor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They play it off very well though. I’d be pissed off at myself Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to FISD look around have some fun and ask any questions you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking good. If your gonna trim the shins start off with small amounts. 100 small cuts is better then one big cut too much Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I lined my straps with bendable aluminum I got at Home Depot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a 24” shoe horn that helps a lot. It makes it a bit easier with thighs banging around. If the boots are too tight then there are ways to soften the leather. Even wearing them around the house will help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree seems like a nice deal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just wanted to make sure the price was decent, hate to see you get ripped off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just out of curiosity. What are you paying for the armor? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome! You’ve gotten some good advice. Measure multiple times and cut once. Make smaller cuts and do lots of sizing in between. You can always cut more off its time consuming but it’ll be worth it. Make a build thread and ask lots of questions. We are all here to help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It was a tough sell with the wife but she understood and I don’t troop a ton but I make sure I get use out of both of them. If I went for a third there might be problems. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d start with some off the shins and see if everything sits better. Personally I feel the thighs are a bit too high. The pic angle makes it look like they are under your cod piece. Ideally you’d want it close but not directly underneath it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You could shave a bit off the bottom of the shins to give you a bit more room. Make sure you do the bottom and do a small amount at a time. It might take you forever to get the right size but it’s better then going too far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
