some pick ups from hobby lobby last night. Cutting mat some snaps and foam to pad up some of the inside armor. And my lady surprised me with a chair for my workstation that looks real imperial. Some may forget there is a lot of little things that go into building a kit .I am brand new to the whole experience and have had to purchase a lot of things I never had to take on this project. Really started something that I truly am proud of.

My ultimate goal is to have my kit as close to centurion it can be minus the e11.once I get that I can start working on the e11 to meet standards .Hopefully before year is over .I got this .Its a marathon not a race .This is the way.
-
Note an E-11 isn't required for basic approval, only needed at EIB and Centurion

Man I tried putting that screen in the hovi tips it was popping all over the place stabbing me in the finger tips haha.then went to 99cent store got a strainer cut that up and butchered that also.hovi tip screen placement defeated me.

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.
