Cool thanks for the tips. Ive got next week off work so will crack on with it then - should have my digital camera back too so will keep posting update pics.

Yeah its a 3 part kit. I have not assembled anything yet was offering it up to see the best way to put it together, and there is a gap at the back as I said between the dome and the rear. I will try to take some photos when I get my digital camera back to make it a bit easier to understand.

Hi guys ive got a fibre glass helmet kit but need some help. Anyone know the best glue to use? And can fibreglass be heated to alter its shape? (there is a slight gap at the back where the dome meets the back plate) Also what type of paint is best - ive seen some people talk about automotive paint. Any help would be much appreciated.

welcome rich and good luck with purchasing your armour

hi and welcome.
ANH stands for 'a new hope' -
I got my armour (FX) from a supplier in the US. The best thing to do would be to read through the old threads regarding armour as there are loads of options.
You could also try contacting your local 501st unit to see where they got theirs from.
Good luck

Hi Nick and Welcome

I would but dont really have a clue where to start with shimming. I dont want the armour to look naff! Anyone know of any good detailed shimming tutorials or have any pics of their own? It would help loads

Got another question guys
On my FX armour im using the ABS for the belt, the instructions say to use velcro to join them is this the easiest way or are there any other easy options?

I think I have sourced some abs for the US. Just need to find out the size of my sources vac forming machine. Fingers crossed i should have some larger thigh and shin armour soon!!!! -
thanks guys! will try to look around this weekend - way too busy at work at the moment!!
-
Yeah thought that might be the case. Still have a few companies in the UK to check but im not holding my breath - lol

Hi,
I have a US set of FX armour but the thighs and calves are too small. I managed to find someone in the UK who could make me larger bits but he says his abs is a different colour. Does anyone know a good supplier in the US who would ship to the UK?
cheers

Hi guys, new to the forum so i just wanted to say hi. Im in the process of trying to complete my first set of FX armour at the moment - struggling with the thighs and calves
