i looked at it as easy to take apart and store.i can un screw the chicago screws for the holster and pop belt plate off and roll up the belt.
-
oh yea make sure you have button snapped on when you glue other side so your sure itll snap.
-
heres the paint thinner i used only about 4 bucks at lowes and grabbed this belt im going to modify to hold up the thighs.plus close up of snaps i put into belt plate.

cleaned up these teeth.finished the right shin still rough finish.im going to clean everything up once its all done.i used these bigger thicker picks to clean frown.the smaller ones break easy and you get hand cramps.also my belt just came in.really cant do nothing to it till the snaps arrive.
-
thanks it worked great.
-
yea i will get to that.ive seen that mentioned the most out of every thing on this site.do i just use acetone and rub it?
-
and just bring elastic to top of shin.not a bad idea.do you have picture of this?
-
ive noticed people put a patch of velcro on upper tongue of boots.is this to keep the shin guards from falling down to much?
-
whole right side of body will be complete.just going to add some extra help for the back calf velcro.i definetly want to do the magnet trick but not sure i trust my skills yet at that.the mesh is in.need to clean up the teeth on frown.
-
so i made an insta for my build also its tat2trooper.i can post more vids and pics easier there.look forward to seeing other dope accts also.
-
Yea pretty dope I'm learning so many different skills I never knew.ready to finish this and start a merc build.we all learning little things from eachother.from what I hear a trooper's armor is never done.allways something you can tune up or upgrade.
-
one thing i learned building this kit so far slow is the way.and there is no easy way.haha.
-
ok so 1 down 2 to go.definetly not as hard as it looks just be very patient and go slow.making sure to have cool down periods.these are tools i used to open up that extremely good glue that was used to hold these suckers on.i will then make there is room for button to completely fit through and also the button cover covers the back nicely.
-
ohhhh ok ok something like this?
-
having a dilemma right now.is this salvagable.was thinking about making small patch with rivet in so can seal with the belt when it comes.can fill the holes with abs paste.sand smooth then e6000 a small square with rivet in.thoughts? really dont want to go buy a new belt plate if not necssary.
-
i actually have that same back brace.
-
thanks for that info.
-
started touching up frown.grey was too light for me.so i added 2 drops of tattoo ink and color match is pretty much exact.not sure if i fill in the whole thing grey or leave the little white area between?
