Sonnenschein Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 Just as the title says, did the original suits have inner finishing strips? I do have same pics of original armor, but I cant really make it out. Thanks, Karin Quote
iconoclasta_88[501st] Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 I have this same question for some time and never actually made the research. My guess is they did not. Saludos. Quote
DarthChridan[TK] Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 There is also a question of stability. Whether screen accurate or not ... i've the inside finish stripes in the inside affixed Quote
ZeroRoom[TK] Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 There's some great LFL archive shots here thanks to Caleb. (and to JoeR for putting me onto them) I don't think there are inner finishing stops on this suit but the inside is visible so look carefully in case I missed it Quote
troopermaster Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 I've never seen any strips on the inside. I think that is just what some guys to do add a bit more strength to the seams but I really don't think it is necessary. Quote

It about doubles the joint strength in tension and compression...so if you are worried about breaking it do it. Personally, i see no reason not to. Quote

sith_241 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 But it can not hurt Agreed, i am 100% for a backing strip. Quote
Sonnenschein Posted July 24, 2011 Author Report Posted July 24, 2011 Well, I went the accurate way without. Making an inner strip doubles the build time Thanks for your input! Quote
