Wiggleplum Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hey guys, Does it really matter which way the kidney plate goes? one side has more of a return edge. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tray[TK] Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 the flat edges would normally go together at the butt and kidney and the rolled edges to the chest and kidney usually match up. That's what I would do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 isnt there a slight curve close to one end of the kidney plate...? i thought that the side with the curve was the bottom.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueTrooper[TK] Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Typically the bottom of the kidney plate has the flat return edge and the top has a more arched or rounded return edge. The flatter one should be toward the butt plate and the arched or rounded should be toward the back plate. As for the edges that butt up to the AB section, you can see in the two pix below of an original TK suit how the kidney and AB section meet. The ATA does not have the notch out at the bottom corner of the Kidney plate, but if you want to put that in yours, it's not that hard to do..
