  1. ANH TKs have left sided holsters. ESB & ROTJ have right sided holsters .... pick a build and follow CRL.... I choose ANH Stunt and made it work for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I’m right handed and I went with the ANH STUNT because i didn’t know any better. I was so happy with my decision afterwards. After building it, i decided to take it a bit further by carrying my E-11 on my left hand to be screen accurate & trained myself to be left handed while in character... it’s fun !!! Of course in the beginning I would carry it from time to time on my right, but now it’s rare I do. Having a holster on either side just means you decided what type of trooper you want to build & Only YOU can decide. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Welcome Alan to the greatest detachment !!! We are here to help !!! My best advice to you while you wait for BBB is : 1). RESEARCH, RESEARCH, & more RESEARCH the build threads here !!! You will get prepared for the “marathon”... 2. Ask questions send pictures ... 3. I am so happy [emoji2] you are where ur at.... EVERYONE has been through what you’re going through feelings of EXCITEMENT, HAPPINESS, ANXIETY, FEAR, & TIREDNESS are just a slew of emotions to be expected, but never feel you are ALONE ! 4. Spend 1-3 hrs every day working on your armor. I would spend more especially on my days off. Remember it’s ok to take time off and enjoy life and continue with refresh eyes. 5. DO NOT take short cuts ! 6. ALWAYS use E-6000... ALWAYS ur armor will thank you [emoji4]!!! 7. Get good & comfortable leather boots. I strongly recommend IMPERIAL BOOTS. They are approveable and nice boots. 8. Get to know what EIB & CENTURION are and build to their specifications. (You will thank me later [emoji1417] !!! There is nothing plenty more, but we will get to it later .... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  7. Hang in there....you’re doing a good job [emoji1417]. I remember being on the same boat as you ! I would spend 1-3 hrs every day with my armor. Setting small achievable steps would help my confidence. The journey of 1000 miles, BEGINS with the 1st step. Well you’re way beyond that !!! Keep it up !!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  13. First, When I had washed bells and chest with dish soap and water I dried the thoroughly. Used 8 oz of Peroxide 40 Heaping tbs of xantham gum 1/4 tsp Oxy clean 1/2 tsp of glycerin Pour peroxide and Xanthan gum and mixed consistently for about 2 mins. using a whisk. This turned into a paste. Let it set for a min for hydration. I added the glycerin mixed again for 2min. When I finished getting my stuff organized, I whisked in the Oxy-clean and mixed for about 90 secs.
