Tolo[TK] Posted June 11, 2014 Report Posted June 11, 2014 Hello Troops, I just received some replacement parts from RT-Mod for my good ole' FX. What should I do for the Abs/Cod piece, RT has them separate. Should I just used some webbing and snaps to put there or glue them together with a strip of ABS? Saying so that I want to bring my armor EIB. Thanks, Eric Quote
gazmosis[501st] Posted June 11, 2014 Report Posted June 11, 2014 Whatever you do to join that seam will be covered by your waist belt. No EIB issues with that ab. Quote

Tolo[TK] Posted June 24, 2014 Author Report Posted June 24, 2014 I had started with the easy way, snaps and webbing, but, I really did not like the look. So what I ended up doing was making it look like a one piece. I glued a strip of HIPS on the cod and ab piece and now, it's time to play the waiting game. Quote
Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted June 24, 2014 Report Posted June 24, 2014 Strong work. The only thing that stops me from doing this on my RT is how easy it is to pack when the ab and cod are separate. -Eric Quote

Tolo[TK] Posted June 29, 2014 Author Report Posted June 29, 2014 This is how it ended up. I'm waiting for my belt from Rob (TKittell) and I have to cut my shims, they are too big. (Sorry for the bad iPhone quality pictures, did not feel like taking out my Canon.) The major difference I made, anyways for me, it that I went to the "suspender" way of holding my armor to the more accurate way of assembling it. It's taking me a bit more time to suit up, maybe it's just getting used to it. Eric Quote
