  1. Being in Aaron's garrison, and seeing his progress from "hey this might be cool" to where he is is really awesome. You, sir, did a phenomenal job on this. Really happy for ya, congrats! Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  2. Awesome job so far! Keep it up! Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  3. That site is run by a member of the New England Garrison. The boots he makes a really nice (I rock a pair, as do a good number of the scouts in our Garrison.) Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
  4. Studio Creations is indeed legit armor, a lot of Scouts run that (including myself.) It's nice armor, at a reasonable price with a minimum amount of time required to get finished. And it comes in quickly. So, yes, they are reputable. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  5. Like has been said, it's Steve Robbins, he made my boots and does a phenomenal job. They are well made and look really sharp. He is pretty much the main boot supplier for my Garrison. So, in my eyes he's as reliable as they come and really good. If you need pics of my boots, let me know. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  6. I do the same order as Chunk. For my cummerbund, I have the crotch permanently sewn in, so I effectively step into it. We use velcro and bra hooks to keep the bund on (meaning, if the velcro fails, the bra hooks work as backup.) I have elastic sewn to the bund that I put over my shoulders, which are then hidden by the vest. The challenges for me are to get the bund and vest on, I always need help, and my shoulders are a pain. Takes about 10 minutes for me to suit up, less if my wife is helping.

  7. I tried glue. It failed. It failed hard. Maybe E6000 will work better, but I found glue with soft bits is not always the best idea. Never underestimate the power of how sweaty you become. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  8. I'm 5'7" and I have a SC kit. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  9. Thanks! Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  10. http://www.wampawear.com/biker-scout-gloves/ That's where I got them, from Wampa Wear. They are a bit snug at first, so if you can overshoot the size a bit, but they are really comfy and look great. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  11. Mine is also lined with batting. Like has been said, making it snug helps, as does not overdoing it. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  12. I really loved the SC kit, we did not have to do pretty anything to get it ready. It came in super quick, like in 2 weeks, and really we rocked and rolled on it. I know that they are not the absolute most accurate, but for speed of delivery and cost, I think they are hard to beat. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  13. Thanks! Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  14. I know I have failed at keeping this updated. Been working hard at getting this done (well, my wife worked hard, I did a lot of trips to the craft stores and the like.) But what we did not fail at was getting my butt approved. TB-21611 reporting for duty!
  15. Move along... Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
