    i have a realy low self esteem anyway so its hard for them to bring me down anyway. i am 18 and a senior in high school so i try to hide it. i would get made fun of so bad if allot of the people knew about my armor. some of my close friends think the armor is cool but others tell me i am the worst level of dork there is. i say "its the same thing as dressing like santa clause, we do charity for kids". or i like to say if its a waste of money how many thousands of dollars have you spent on video games, shoes, handbags you will never use, and how many children's lives have you changed with that hobby.

    I'm good with about anything but some of my favorites are:

    Project 86, Weird Al. Ash, Breaking Benjamin, KJ-52, Relient K, Matchbook Romance( one song), Ozzy, and the Foo Fighters

     

    aw man i love project 86 and weird al and breaking benjamin. one of the guys who recorded breaking benjamins platinum album recorded my cd "in reach out of touch" and i worked at his recording studio last summer. it was awesome. he is a cool guy. i almost played a show with project 86 but it never happened.

    yea thanks for the info. i just didnt know. im definitely going to let it sit next time. maybe even two days cause i want to be careful. good thing i have allot of clamps so i can let more than one thing sit at a time. do you guys think if its ok if i have a little gap or should i go back and redo the arms too. i was planing on doing it if i ever thought it affected the look of the armor. to give me an excuse to work with my armor longer^_^.

    well i found a temporary solution. i got industrial strengeth velcro ad used the adhisive to hold the two peices together. it looks fine. haha. i just put the velcro on the back. ad i think im going to put velcro from the abb plate to the back and chest armor instead of directly conecting them if this doesnt work im hopping i can do a better job with the old method. thanks for all your help. do you thik this stuff will work. you guys are awesome.

    i got devcon epoxy. it says super strength 1250 psi for concrete, glass, metal. plastic, and rubber. 60 seconds working time 5 min handling time. for my forearm peices i lightly sanded each side but they came apart so i fixed the problem areas and it seems to be a little better now but it still comes up in some spots a little. but my biceps are like totally coming apart. i didnt sand them hoping to avoid any bad parts like on the arm but it didnt work. i sanded put glue on one side(which i heard you were supposed to do, used these black clams with orange tips on every part. it says 16 piece spring clamp set and it comes in a clear bag. i know ive said allot but any help would be greatly appreciated.

    hey guys. i am putting my armor together and when i tested out my strap to hold the chest and back plate together i noticed that the elastic wasnt pulling the back plate all the way to my lower back plate and you could clearly see the velcro inside the back plate. what can i do to get rid of this problem. should i leave the chest and back unattached or try to use less/a stronger elastic?also i used the dev con plastic weld i found at wallmart and it is coming apart wherever their is to much stress do you have any advice? thanks
