Yep, that was me.

TX-76007 Reporting for Duty!!! Just waiting to be added to the Database!

Actually, no....TK 409 gave me a refund, due to not being able to find the material.....Darman on the other hand, is now doing my neck seal. Friend of mine gave me his until I get my own.

Application has been Submitted.....now the wait. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kqk8eslajf8hosv/AAA40Jsdudv-xlSlDQWb_RWfa?dl=0

I ordered through their website, and had no contact with them beforehand. I have been sending emails to the email on the website.

ordered a neck seal from TK409....anyone have any dealing with this vendor? I ordered on the 3rd, and have received nothing from them to date. Paypal confirmed that the money was delivered via standard email. I have sent 2 emails....just concerned, but FSID posts recommended her a lot....so, I'm hoping it is just lack of communication.

Yea, that's the thing....I am reading and following both of those, was trying to find clarification...but I got it last night at an event I was at.

I'm working toward specialist.... Maybe not as soon as I get accepted, but it is a goal.

So, new question.....now that I've actually decided to finish everything up..... Drop boxes...how do you align them up? Outside edge lined up with the outside edge of the plastic portion of the ammo belt? (if I read the specialist requirements correctly).... or is it the outside edge lined up with the outside edge of the last ammo pod? (which I've seen in pictures)

So, yea, this happened...... You know, trooping around in this thing showed me all the spots I need to work on....

Oh, I am, I got it done enough that today (Saturday) I had my first public wear of it at Dallas Alcon.... It showed me a lot of little tweaks I have to do, and even learned emergency maintenance...my Velcro on my calves didn't work at all, so fixed that on the fly, and my left thigh front popped open after about an hour.... All that was fixed, and now I have to shorten down strapping and get it to where it is easier to walk in. But am going out in it again tomorrow. Loved it, and got photo swarmed....

Crap crap crap.... I just realized, my thighs...... I had been constructing them backwards.... So now I have to take them apart so that I make the correct fronts look correct, and move the correct looking backs to the back....

So, test fit of the armor, (still missing right thigh, but you can't see that part)...I haven't completed my strapping, so my left forearm and shoulder bell twisted before the picture was taken....but hey, I actually look like a shadow trooper.... I'm hoping by the end of the week I will have it all complete except neck seal and my E-11 (which would be done if I could find the screws to put back together my hasbro conversion) And it needs a really good polish.....

So, its beginning to look like armor....horrid lighting, but eh, it's good enough for now. My button plates are not on yet, and I don't have my belt..... And this last one, bad angle with my shoulder while taking the pic, which makes the shoulder strap look off (it isn't, and I don't have my elastic loops put on yet.) So, any tweaks that anyone can give me at this point? I still need to put on my button plates, and put on my rivits on the left side...and sharpie over the seams on my under suit bottoms.

So just go with the 10mm strip on both side?
