cocomonk22 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Does anyone know what the name of this metal bracket is? I need to get a longer one to bring the chest lower and ab plate higher, since the upper armor is currently too long on me. Quote
Starfox2010 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 I think they just call them Strapping Brackets. You can buy some on the Ongoing Sale section. I believe they are made from piano cords and I could swear theres a How-to topic in the How-to section. Hope this helps. Quote
cocomonk22 Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks, I was able to find the threads you mentioned. Found the sale thread here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=20859 The How To here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=14331#entry173761 (Original How To post): http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=13706&page=3#entry172174 I think I'll try the wire whisk method, since I need to make the brackets longer than the screen accurate versions.

firebladejedi[TK] Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Just lengthen the elastic, no need to change the wire bracket. 5 Quote
cocomonk22 Posted January 19, 2015 Author Report Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Well, if I lengthen the elastic, when worn that would cause the ab plate to stretch down farther, causing the suit to become taller instead of shorter. EDIT: It seems to have worked, but one of the screw holes in the chest is enlarged, so I will need to repair it with ABS paste. Edited January 19, 2015 by cocomonk22 Quote
