  1. I'll get some pics of some trimmed parts up tomorrow hopefully.

     

    I did have one quick question about something that's worrying me, but might be a normal thing. I have one side of each of the right forearm pieces trimmed for a cover strip, but when I put them together the forearm looks really oval. It fits, but when I glue the cover strip it'll likely have some tension put on it. Is e6000 going to hold that well? It seems like it will always be under tension and I fear it would come apart at the worst time.

     

    clamp it good with clamps or magnets while the e6000 is drying.

    let it dry 24 hours before touching it .  it will hold.

     

    the good thing about e6000 is if you dont like how it turns out, you can forcefully rip it up without damaging your plastic and re-do.

     

    Im glad to see you are finally getting back to making your armor, Chris!

  2. Just wanted to drop in and say that your armor is looking awesome, and your documented progress is going to be a huge help! I have a set of NE armor I got almost a year ago, just been too afraid of messing it up, so after reading this thread I think I might be ready to tackle this.

     

    Chris - you should get yourself in gear!  get to work on that armor!
