Great job on the re-work, good luck with approval.

 

 

[T-Jay[TK]]

I love this weathering.

Good luck Scott.

[Ruck[TK]]

Thank you both.  I hope my work is up to the standards of the DO.  I’ve followed expert advice to get this armor up to snuff hope my work is good enough.  

[magni[TK]]

Hi Scott .  I'll be the D.O.  doing your EIB review.  At this starting point I'll need you to add some datil photos:

 

 

1-The Crl states for Basic Approval about Shoulder Bridges:    

 

These shall be securely mounted in front and may free float in back.

 

Looking at your provided photos, It couldn't be appreciated if the shoulder bridges has some kind of Velcro attached, could you please add a close photo of their back  inner side and the back plate's shoulder detail to check it?

 

 

                                                                                                                                  Reference images

           

 

2- The crl also for Shoulder Bridges for L2  states:

 

Shoulder straps shall not have a flat end at the ends of them. They shall be ribbed 100%.

 

Could you please add a close photo of the back section of the shoulder bridges to check they have no flat end? something like the reference bellow.

 

 

 

thank you.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Ruck[TK]]

Would you like me to post those here?

For the shoulder straps are you referring to this flat spot but in the rear of the strap?

Here is a side view of the shoulder straps it’s raised to see where I cut to the last rib.

Hi Scott, and thank you for the additional  photos and for your patience.

 

A quick fix will be needed to your shoulder bridges and it's to trim a bit the back section to match the crl requirement.

I’ll fix that and I know just how.  Thank you Q!!!!

I made a little mold, part 1 of mold.  A small piece of ABS:

I heated up the very end on the shoulder strap:

With the little ABS piece I made underneath I pushed the hot ABS over it to form another ridge so my shoulder straps weren’t too short:

Then I trimmed the end and sanded some shape to it:
