Question regarding the CRL regarding the abdomen.
I recently purchased the Galactic Armory ROTK 3d printing file, and most of it looks good. However, the abdomen is divided in two widthwise to allow for easier movement in and out of the armor. It also has the backplate attached. The CRL, however, states that I need to have it be all one piece, with the backplate detached. I messaged the creator of the files, and got the following statement.
Is it ok if this is modded in for ease of entry? My thought was to put locking clsaps on each seam, and with the way it's structured the seam should be disguised when the clasps are engaged. It's going to be a lot easier for someone like me with a bit of a gut who doesn't have access to a vacformed kit. I also have the files by Akira Yuming,which uses the much more traditional method method, but will be much more difficult to get in and out of without potentially hurting the part or having to print it out of *shudder* flexible filaments.
If all else fails, I'm thinking of getting a single vacformed piece from WTF just for the abdomen.
