  1. Finally the last piece of this set. I think I cut this one a bit more aggressively and I fear I may have done too much. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk
  2. Here we are on the second peice and then onto the third Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk
  3. I'm posting this simple step by step journey in the hopes one day I'll get this out together. Hopefully there will be more Armor parties in my area soon. Here's my trim with Dremel and sanding so far. I believe this is the right or left fore arm? Does this look right? Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk
  4. I have Walts ANH Stunt, I have been trying to get hooked up with a local garrison for some time now. I just need someone to guide me through some of these initial first steps.
  5. Hello, I have tried many times to start my armor build to no avail. I had a set of defective armor I started. Now I want to start again on the new armor. I have since moved to Texas. I really want to find a local garrison armor party or someone near San Antonio to help me with my build. I am on the trimming phase. I don't even know where to make the first cut. The last time I screwed it up.
  6. Bells are next, I hope I left enough return Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  7. Ok thighs are mostly trimmed just need to do sanding and final edges. I tried leaving a 5mm return on every edge. And now I have no idea how they are supposed to fit together, that's for later. How am I looking? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  8. Sweet, well I don't have a belt sander but I do have a Dremel for sanding. I also have sanding files. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  9. Awesome thanks for that! Do you all use Dremel tools or sanding blocks? Or both? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  10. Awesome will do, thank you! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  11. I am building from a WTF kit. But this really helps a lot. I just don't think I left enough return. We will see. I will check out the build thread recommendation. Thanks! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  12. I did I'm gonna work through those once I start up again. They really did help Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  13. Yeah I saw that, I'm not even to the glueing phase yet and that's what scares me the most. Haha I'm a wuss. Anyway, thanks for the advice, it's slow going but I plan to have this done by next celebration! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  14. I am freaking out, I don't think I am doing any of this right. I feel like I have already ruined my body pieces haha. Yikes, its' all a learning process.
  15. Holy smokes thank you sir! I've been following your build thread as well. Are you going for Stunt or Centurion? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  16. Thank you all so much! This is seriously a big help!! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  17. What does 5mm even look like, like how would you measure that? I actually forgot to get a ruler so I'm gonna go buy that today. Any recommendations? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  18. Holy smokes this all Latin to me. I don't even know where to start. Now I'm worried I've ruined my chest, butt, kidney, back and cod plates. I don't have any return on them at all. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  19. So rule of thumb is always leave about 2-3mm of return on everything just in case? Like I can always trim it down to fit later right? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  20. Perfect this helps a bunch. So then for the bells and thighs would these marks make sense or should I leave a bit for adjusting? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  21. I've penciled in what I've seen in reference photos, I'm not sure if this is right or not.
  22. Oh sweet that's awesome I think I bought a bracket system. Also how the hell do I trim this belt piece? Haha Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
