calgrad Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Hello, I just spent the better part of my weekend assembling my armor. It was pretty fun but also pretty exhausting. Is there anyone here who built the RS Propmaster kit that can point me to a guide that shows how to utilize the strapping kit that RSP provides? Much appreciated! Quote
humperdingle Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Are the details not on the video file RS provides with a kit? Quote
kamikaze[TK] Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Are the details not on the video file RS provides with a kit? What video file? When I ordered my RSP kit they said they didn't have any documentation or video to help in assembly but noted the extensive online community as being the resource to help put it together. Granted, this was last December so maybe they now have something? Either way, I found this to be helpful, yet opted afterwards to setup a snap system instead so I can take all the armor apart in pieces rather than having the torso altogether. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thvjiwh3ldM This is part 7 where he gets into mounting the brackets and later talks about the strapping, the reference was helpful and hopefully may aide you some too.

calgrad Posted October 31, 2016 Author Report Posted October 31, 2016 Hmm all I got in the box was a letter piece of paper specifying the email address you need to contact in order to order replacement parts. That and a certificate of authenticity. Don't see any DVD or CD or URL link to a file. 1 Quote
humperdingle Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Sorry, thinking of Anovos, I think :/ Quote
Ripper_L[Admin] Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Anovos has a nice booklet as PDF but also no video. I don't know about the RS suits - what is included in the strapping kit? Quote
BritBulldog[TK] Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 They're pretty straight forward, elastic loops attached to the wire arms screwed on to the armour. Let me know if you need any close up photos. 2 Quote
humperdingle Posted November 1, 2016 Report Posted November 1, 2016 I knew i'd seen it somewhere! This text taken from the RS site, under the helmet, armour and accurate strapping kit:<br><br> "Recommended for these who are on a budget, or who wish to build the suit themselves as part of the replica prop experience. The kit is simple to build if you have some model making, craft or ‘DIY’ skills, supplied with images and instructions including key build areas, along with a tutorial video of the basic build techniques required across the full suit, with full support via email and Skype as required."

calgrad Posted November 3, 2016 Author Report Posted November 3, 2016 Dear Britbulldog, Thank you so much for the photo of your armor. Seeing that is a big help. Looks like I got lots of holes to drill! 1 Quote
