Best Approach to Removing E6000 from Armor
LightBox replied to LightBox's topic in Assembly, Mods, and Painting
Thank you for the tips. Much appreciated! I've give your ideas a try. -
Hello everyone, A while back, I made a mistake gluing the forearm armor for my build making too small for my size. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for how to best take apart the pieces and remove the E6000. I've found some solutions online, but I wanted to find something that wouldn't damage the plastic. I wanted to know what you have tried and what has worked successfully. Your advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Just a small tip I learned; A simple way to make the rim of the mic tip white (instead of masking and painting it) is to sand down the rim with sandpaper, revealing the white underneath. That is, if you are using white resin-cast mic tips. Best of luck on your build.

Check out around the E-11 fourms, there are quite a few posts about it there: https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/search/?q=Hasbro&type=forums_topic&nodes=127

I think any spray paint would do, but I would recommend primer as well. It should really help with adhesion. Top coats should help add a lot of protection, As Alay said.

Congratulations! Many helpful ideas in this thread, especially with the helmet. Best of luck shooting for Centurion.

Has anybody tried 3D printing a megablaster?
LightBox replied to DanielEisenhauer's topic in Weapons of the First Order
If you do end up contacting them, I suggest doing it via their facebook page. In my experience, they are much better to talk to by facebook than their email. If you'd like another alternative, you could try converting the Nerf Version, perhaps adding some 3D printed additions if you'd like, to help it look a bit more realistic. Good luck. -
Looking good so far. What filament are you using? Looking forward to how it turns out.

Thank you very much for your help! I was looking for that thread too. Question though, do you this would be able to work with a doopydos?

Very first build AM armor ANH Stunt "will update"
LightBox replied to SirFalconian's topic in ANH Build Threads
Before reapplying the tubes, I recommend polishing the plastic a bit, as it may be dulled a bit from the mineral spirits. Quick question, what mineral spirits did you use? I made a similar mistake, and I'm having quite the trouble removing them. Best of luck! -
Requesting Front Face Pictures/Measurements
LightBox replied to LightBox's topic in ANH BlasTech E11
Yup! As well as the Photo Compendium, and the "Best Sterling Templates Ever" thread. Unfortunately, neither of them have a front face view. -
I've been slowly 3D modeling an E11 for my pipe build, and I've been having quite a bit of trouble finding a reference picture of the nozzle and front sight. (Looking directly down the barrel). It doesn't even have to be a real sterling, any picture of the front face of an E11 would do. I've been looking for a picture so I could scale the Front Sight correctly around the pipe. If possible, it would be appreciated for measurements of the front sight as well. Thank you very much.
