TK bondservnt[501st] Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) Now that I'm healed up (read pain meds) I at least put up a little tidbit of stuff AP kidney notch is present but cut off at the factory. -------- and this MTK kidney notch for comparison. --------- Edited January 13, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
usaeatt2 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Wow! That's an interesting picture of the AP! I know very little about vacuforming, but the first thing that jumps into my mind is: Why wouldn't Mark just raise the buck about an inch on the platen? This would obviously cause a little deeper draw, but it would make AP fit more troopers AND leave the notch intact. Glad to hear you're healing up, Vern. When I saw you were selling your entire collection, it almost seemed like a life threatening situation. Happy to see you posting! Quote
PGHtrooper21 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Good to see you back Vern! Andy Quote
starsaber25[Admin] Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 Thanks for the post Vern and hope you are on your way to recovery! I'm with you Aaron. I don't know much about vac forming but if he did raise it up then it would add another couple of inches which would help AP fit more people without more modifications. Interesting... Quote
Cantina Security[501st] Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 The last MTK kit I received had no kidney notch. Quote
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted April 22, 2015 Author Report Posted April 22, 2015 my problems are many. te last 2 MTK sets I saw had the notch. the AP kit has not really been modded that much... ears, forearms and shin. Quote
