Imperial Knight Jajj Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 has any one made a repair kit or fix kit for trooping? i was lucky this past weekend... as i was getting armored up, one of my shin pieces came unglued.... ahhh... panic... luckily i brought extra velcro and scissor... when i came home i immediately began putting together a repair/fix kit just for those moments... i put in the box: velcro(black and white colored), scissors, exacto knife, super glue, duct tape, painters tape, glue gun with glue sticks... oh and extra ABS plastic peices.... i think thats all i have in there... so... has any one else done this... I'm willing to bet that i am not the first to do this... but i thought it was a good idea... now i have a dedicated box just for trooping... i will never leave home with out it... if anyone has any other ideas of what to put in this kit, i will be glad to hear....

tk0000[501st] Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 deoderant, throw away camera, pre-cut velcro strips if you use the industrial strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk0000[501st] Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I always take my tk tool box to every event and use it at almost every event for something or other. Once i had to pop rivet my knee back on. Had to replace some velcro a couple times. Had to repair cracked cod were the belt attached with tape and glue once. Had to hot glue abb button when i bent over and the chest armor popped it off. I actually use chewing gum until i could get a break and do the repair. I use anti fogg wipe packets regularly while suiting up. Have had to install batteries. Have had to make repairs to my biker scout too. I keep snaps and snap crimper in there too.
