welshchris77[TK] Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 Does anyone know if the cover strips can have 'rounded' corners or does everyone 'square' them off? Would a 'rounded' corner pass centurion?, I just think it looks better. Also a lot of cover strips I am seeing on various armor builds look as though they are sticking out past the armor slightly, is this usual? Something I have noticed on the Anovos Kit is the return edges all look a bit too wide, What would be the minimum you could go to shaving this edge down? 1 Quote
Artshot Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 I rounded the corners on my cover strips, apart from to me looking more pleasing, I did not want sharper edges in areas that may snag. Quote
Rich330[TK] Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 Check the photos of original suits in the references section. There were all kinds of shapes at the ends of cover strips. Quote

Thanks for the input guys To me the cover strips also look more pleasing rounded and in keeping with the overall design of the armor Quote
pandatrooper[TK] Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) I like to do subtle 45 degree cuts then just sand them slightly to smooth the sharper corners and call it done.<br><br> Yes, I have mine extended just a hair past the end of the armor in most spots.

Tolo[TK] Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 I pass the corner on a bench grinder to round them off. With the same opinion as everyone, i like the look and don't like the sharp edged Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk 1 Quote
