Everything is trimmed now, however I've realized that I'll have to trim the tops of the thighs, and I'm nervous about it. Does there have to be a return edge on them?

Ah okay, I was wondering if they were too wide, but I had no clue, thanks!

I'm gonna check that out! Thanks for the heads up!

Hmm, I'll have to check my local Lowes.

Where should I buy rare earth magnets? I think i found some on amazon that will work. Here https://www.amazon.com/Keenbe-Neodymium-Disc-Magnets-N45/dp/B01N5MN42M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1489351864&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=rare+earth+magnets&psc=1

​Well, I have all my images on photobucket but when I try to add pictures, I get a warning saying "you are not allowed to use that image extension on this community." What am I doing wrong?

Lookin good! So far what I've discovered is that these parts fit me better than I had originally thought. The arms seem to be the perfect length. I'm actually uploading pics to photobucket so I can post them here in a few minutes. And I agree, fewer gaps looks better

I think I'll go for the suspenders once I get around to the thighs

I've trimmed off the return on the top of the forearms (I'll post pics when I get to my desktop) is that okay? The sandtrooper on the CRL page doesn't have a return edge on the top of his forearms either (at least it doesn't look like it )

I've trimmed both forearms and one bicep. I glued the left forearm together and it's currently drying I have several questions on how to rig the torso and thighs however. How should I keep the thighs held up? I've seen some people use suspenders, but I wasn't positive if that was attached to the cod/ab piece. Also about the cod, does anyone ever cut it from the abs to be more flexible? Or is that inaccurate and non approvable? And what parts are supposed to have return edges? I know the forearms don't have to have one and the biceps don't have much of one. But so far what I've read is people trim them for comfort. I think a big question I have is, is there a fine line between comfort and accuracy/501st approval. Or does getting approved mainly mean getting the pieces fitted and looking properly? Phew, that was a lot of questions... I'll start posting my progress pics very soon! So stay tuned!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts, my wifi has went out and I haven't had any way to post. I am SERIOSULY considering switching to a TD. I love the weathering and gear associated with them. What do you all think? I know I'd have to get ahold of a diamond knee plate for the base armor.

E6000 it is then!<br><br> I went out today and bought what supplies were available.<br><br> Also I'm posting from my phone and I don't think it has all the functions the full website does. <br><br> I'm going to get in touch with my local garrison and see where their next armor party is.

How should I upload pictures?
