pandatrooper[TK] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Just out of curiosity, how is a TD sniper knee installed? All I see is the diamond itself, just wondering how it attaches to the shin. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sskunky Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 From what I've seen it's just riveted through the front of the plate. The rivet then painted white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GosHawk[501st] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 All I did was cut out a dimond shaped backing, used a rivit to attach I to the knee then glued the actual plate to the backing and filled in the gaps with caulk. That way it looks clean and you don't see a rivit in the middle. Hope that help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandatrooper[TK] Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Awesome, that's exactly what i was looking for. Thanks everyone! As an asides, what's with the "cheese grater" hand plates for Sandys? I don't recall seeing those in the films, are they canon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall seeing those in the films, are they canon? Yes. There was like 1 dude that had them... maybe more. But they are canon. The cheese, however, is not.

You can mount it directly but depending on your setup the thigh and sniper plate may interfere, hence putting the buffer on there.

Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 It's a personal preference. Some dig it, others not so much. Personally I'm not too keen on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
