Started to work on the strapping. I decided to go with snaps to hold the front and back plates together. Then I'll just use velcro to hold the shoulder straps on. I think I'm going to be attaching everything to the front and back so I just wanted a little more strength to hold all this together.

Worked on the collar had to reinforce it seemed to flimsy.

Finally back at it. Changed out the 3D printed light with a real one. Also changed the range finder with one that I machined myself.

Nice job looking good ?

Thanks I used green LED's that I defused so it wouldn't have bright spot in the middle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Big score came in the mail today. Never thought I would find a pair of Jered's in my size. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Size 14 is the largest I've seen. Might have to go with a custom pair if you want larger. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Be patient with the paint or this will happen. I rushed putting the clear on and this happened. Just glad it wasn't the helmet I'm going to be using. I also have Jim's kit and I love how it's going together. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Also got started on my E-11 going to replace some of the 3D printed stuff with aluminum pieces to give it a little more strength. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thinking of using this fabric for my undersuit. Couldn't get a good picture of it but it's has a little more shine to it. It's very flexible and will breathe well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Started to put clear coat on and this happened. Waited about four days for black to cure but apparently it wasn't long enough. I'll be sanding this one out just glad it's another helmet I had and not the one I'll be using. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Finally getting some paint on my helmet armor is next. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
