  1. What are the best currently-available options for DLT-19 or 19X? Several places I’ve looked into are not offering (or in business). Lots of 3D printed options (on Etsy namely which i think would be a crapshoot). Also iffy about a 3D print how much cleanup there will be without seeing in person. Any vendor recommendations welcome! (Also interested in used.)
  2. Congrats Lancer!
  3. I got almost my entire kit from Chef’s....nothing negative to say except you might be waiting for a while for the kit. He had pretty good communication when I worked with him and offered help when I had questions, but I have no comparison to other armorers. Just got approved Lancer with fairly minimal mods to the armor I received...just gotta have that attention to detail! Good luck with your build!
  4. Thanks! Very excited and proud to be accepted into the rank!
  5. Excellent news! Thanks review team!
  6. - Cod Piece: This was bunched because the elastic strap was pulled too tight between my legs. I slightly lengthened the elastic strap such that the cod piece sits more naturally which removed the bunching. (See updated front picture.) - Belt Boxes: Pulled in extra strapping to raise boxes to 1” below belt level. (See measurement picture and updated side picture) - Left side forearm/bicep overlap: Moved forearm armor to prevent overlap (See updated side picture) - Chest low: I shaved a bit (1/8”) off the bottom of the chest armor, which it needed anyway to further clean it up and smooth it out. I also slightly adjusted the joint between the chest and back armor. (See updated front picture) - Strap Measurements: See updated measurements of shoulder (1/2”), bicep (2”) , forearm (1”), and knees (1/2” and 1”) with the ruler now in front - Easy fix!

  7. Thanks review team for the feedback! These should be pretty straightforward fixes or pic retakes so I’ll get on it.

  14. Okay - thanks again for the great feedback. I updated my photos: https://we.tl/s-QkZZVQDiOj
  15. Also, where should the belt ride? As it it in my pics, it’s around my waist, like a normal belt line. Should it be higher like around the naval?
