Muhobi[TK] Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Hello Troopers, I have a question and I would like to make some improvements to my armor, which is made of ABS. Is there a special pair of scissors for ABS (thickness approx. 2mm) and what is it called? What do you have to watch out for with scissors with which you cut ABS because I want to do without a saw, Dremel, cutter. -Thank you for the answer- imperial greetings Marcel Edited July 21, 2020 by Muhobi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedVengeance[Staff] Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Greetings! “Lexan” scissors are what you want for cutting ABS. Some also use tin snips, but they are larger and less maneuverable. Having both curved and straight lexan scissors will greatly help you with ABS trimming.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsilvius[Staff] Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 These are what I used on mine. https://www.amazon.com/Excel-Curved-Lexan-Scissors-2-Inch/dp/B0006O5KEG along with the "score and snap" method. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
