Hi, I think this thread about the same issue could be helpful

looks like all of you having a great time !!

Lord Vader is driving safe. great shot !

Looking great Brett. You have made an outstanding job with the fixes and ready for a fast approval. If I can make a note, something simple but that can help to keep the great accuracy of your armor is the TD control panel location. It looks like the round washer style detail is facing upwards more than the seen in screen. This can be fixed just opening the clips a little (if they allow it) and rotating the TD backwards, plan B would be to trim the control panel lower section a little to relocate it in the correct facing position.

Hi Colin ! Great to see your EIB application so soon. One of us will be with you shortly. Added to the processing line.

AB BELT , BOXES AND POUCHES ASSEMBLY 3 Layers : Ribbed Rubber ,Closed Cell Sponge and Polyester Webbing Leave aprox 2 inches free of the Ribbed Rubber layer to attach the buckle and glued the 2 layers (I used the Sponge adhesive and add a bit of AC Gel Glue. Found a round container form the laundry room to keep the belt in the correct shape . Be sure to measure the circumference of your AB armor section not your body. Used some magnets, (you never have enough of them) to help the 2 layers to keep in place while gluing them. Buckle Install adding the 3rd Layer. Used magnets again to keep the pieces steady to make the holes for the screws. Used Chicago Screws to affix the layers. BOXES AND POUCHES INSTALL I Started with the center Boxes. I gave a Black paint cape to the inner halves Added the Snap to the webbing layer that will attach the belt to the armor. The two horizontal boxes go aligned with the center of the armor , not the center of the belt. Again, used the chicago screws method to attach the inner boxes. And E6000 to glue the Covers For the two vertical boxes I used black elastic to attach them in a flexible connection. NOTE the vertical boxes go aligned a little lower in the belt than the horizontal ones. Reference Image FINISHED. Return to Index

This is what I did. Use a mix of systems. Wood pieces, clamps , rectangular magnets and you can add some painters tape. Hope this can help you mate!

Hi Jeff, It looks like you're almost complete. As a tip I would suggest to have some pairs of cloth gloves to help you keep your hands dry when wearing the rubber ones. something like this https://www.amazon.com/Cotton-Gloves-Handling-Inspection-Photography/dp/B07VCZRGM1/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=cloth+gloves&qid=1627310602&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExOTJERENDM040RVNQJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNTQwMjM1MURDSDVQQVExS0Q5VCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNzEyNjQ4MlZZV0QyU05WNVZIWCZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU= looking forward for your BBB day photos.
