I get asked questions by newer people in our garrison about building a TK for the first time and look for tips or helpful advice.  Well it felt like I was repeating myself a lot so I threw together a blog post to cover a number of topics that I wish I had known more about going into the build for the first time.

 

Some of the topics include

  • commentary on the tools/supplies you'll need
  • measuring
  • trimming
  • gluing armor
  • strapping (a more hybrid approach with both snaps and velcro)
  • shimming and working with ABS paste
  • and painting

 

And as an added bonus, none of the images are hosted on PhotoBucket ;)
