Did some work on my belt last night. Here is what it looks like. Goofed on one side and had to add an extra snap to correct it. Figure it would be stronger leaving it in then pulling it out.

Ok so I think the last minute stuff things are...

 

Neck seal (wife is making)

Garter system (wife is making)

Ab kidney snaps/rivets

Elastics for shoulder bridge to bell

Bell to bicep

Bicep to forearm

 

I think that's it?

Oh yeah, test fit! Will post more soon.

Can't quite put my finger on it, but something looks a little off. Ah, that's it........ I don't think you wear it that way!

Agreed. I don't know how people put on their chest/back armor on while wearing their helmet... let alone inside out. Guess I'll figure it out somehow...

Here's a couple more!

I made a tab to hold the side more inline but will probably add a grove to keep both sides in place.

I did catch something on your pics - right shin - your cover strip is a bit short mate.

 

This has been one awesome build, and a excellent read - kinda bummed to see it come to the end soon.

Jorge, that is one suit to be VERY proud of. You look awesome in it, and I'm glad to see it come together so well.

Gary, you answered my frantic pms and talked me off the roof. I couldn't have gotten this far with you. Thank you sir!
