    Belt Note: My belt has two snaps on each side, I had to add two new snaps to make sure the belt sits right on my armor. The originals didn't. The new snaps have black dots next to them.

    Thermal Detonator Screws

    Det Note: The clips were too long, so I had to trim them. Also these screws are from Joseph's screw kit.

    Cod and Posterior Plate Attachment

    Note: The posterior plate has a crack in it, it is not visible when armor is worn.

  2. Thanks guys! But it's not over yet! Still need to make some modifications to get EIB and Cen. Off topic for this post but I noticed some tks cut v shapes into the back of their calves to improve mobility. If I were to do this would it affect l2 or l3 approval? Thanks!

  3. Hi, my body armor is done, I'm almost ready to take approval photos in fact. But I had a question. Currently my backplate overlaps the kidney plate for two reasons. First it overlaps in the CRL. Second my backplate has a curve that makes it impossible for it to sit flush against the kidney plate. So my question is is overlap ok for EIB and Centurion. I know is ok for basic. Thanks!

  4. So basically after I added my Ab snaps to my belt, I accidentally proceeded to put my holster and drop boxes upside down. The only way to fix it is to add new Ab snaps, but if i hammer to hard ill crack the belt. I cant take the belt off because it's riveted. Worst case scenario I have to buy a snap tool. Any suggestions?

    The yellow is where the new snap needs to go.

    Thanks!

  5. Hi,

    my kidney armor does not have notches so its hard to tell which side is up. So two questions.

    -Should I add the notches? I know they are not required, even for level 3. 

    -Which side is up? I added a yellow line to show off the curve.

    My kit is AM and I'm going for centurion.

    Thanks!
