Grum1775[TK] Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Hi everyone, got my kit yesterday and after laying everything out a mumbling repeatedly "Wow, that's a lot of stuff.", I started in with the rough trimming.<br> Finished up the trimming this morning and decided to try gluing the left forearm after a fit test. While that is drying have been hand sanding the cut edges of some of the bigger pieces. Pictures to follow. Quote

Darth Havoc[TK] Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Awesome, the first cut is always the hardest, after that you get comfortable. Just make sure if you are doing test fits, to have your under suit on as it will change the fit of the armor. When fitting your shins, do so with your boots on. Save you some headaches down the road. Good luck with your build and congrats ! 1 Quote
Grum1775[TK] Posted February 21, 2016 Author Report Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) Had my undersuit on and off a couple times already and the same with my TK Boots. I now understand armor bites lol. Edited February 21, 2016 by Grum1775 Quote
Grum1775[TK] Posted February 28, 2016 Author Report Posted February 28, 2016 Haven't made a lot of posts, I keep forgetting to take progress pics. Still need to do a little gluing but overall I am pleased with the progress so far.<br><br> <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://www.dropbox.com/s/aomifkubwmj3weq/2016-02-28%2009.14.30.jpg?dl=0'>https://www.dropbox.com/s/aomifkubwmj3weq/2016-02-28%2009.14.30.jpg?dl=0</a> Quote
Grum1775[TK] Posted March 6, 2016 Author Report Posted March 6, 2016 Still a lot of work to do. Bracket system is installed, worked some on the the other strapping. Need to work on the bucket and the lower legs and get everything fitting properly and plus some painting but it's coming along. 1 Quote
