Kristinamega Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 My kit is from Armory Shop Props and it is 3D printed. The ankle bell was cracked so I had to sand and buff out the damage but I need help on what ways I can make it look smooth. I do need to order automobile paint (Toyota 040 White). This kit chips A LOT and when it does, it chips blue. Also, I have the belt parts, any help on how to assemble it and which tools I need to put it together. While I am at it LOL Shoulder bells! Any help would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 Images are always helpful, with 3D printed parts I find flexing them too much will weaken them and they eventually crack, I use Gorilla super glue with a kicker spray which sets it rock hard. You could add some strength from behind, either glue a piece of plastic behind or add fiberglass matt and resin. Belt assembly Also Tony's @ukswrath FOTK build which is very well documented Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note it's hard to believe it's been 5 years since I built that kit. Glad to see it still helping the community. THT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
