Doubling up - where to buy 2 sets of armour

[whitetrooper74]

Hi folks,

 

My name is Andy, I'm in Stafford in the midlands.

I think I've dipped in here a few times over the last 12 months - but the build finally looks to be going ahead. I've been trooping for 12 months or so now as a TK, but now want a second costume as a scout. My 13 year old daughter has also showed an interest in becoming a scout too, so I'm looking at doing 2 builds side by side.

I keep seeing the names marcel and chef mentioned - how do I get in touch with these guys for armour??

My wife is a whizz on the sewing machine and has already started on the soft parts, I have pistol kits on their way to me, I'm looking at doing the boots myself - so it's the armour and lids I'm really after!

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

just PM chef here on the boards, he can hook you up Marcel is the detachment leader, but doesn't supply armor

Yup I only make cummerbunds and boots, Pm Chef he is the detachment armourer

[Chef]

Whut... Did someone mention my name?

[Chex]

No, you're hearing..er...reading things. Chef is def cooking with heat when it comes to scout armor. (See what I did there? )

[Griffin-X]

It looks like you have found the scouts you seek. They are both top notch!

Cheers guys - made contact with Chef :0)

well folks..... after a tough year of personal problems...... namely my wife running off with another trooper..... I have finally got my costume pretty near to completion.

 

I think all I have left to do is add braces to the bund to help keep it up, put velcrotabs on the bicep and knee armour to keep it in position, and fix the cloth shoulder joint strips into place....

You're almost ready for deployment trooper. Report to the armoury for repairs pronto, then Move Out!

 

Why aren't the knees staying in place? Looks like you have both straps.
