tidalforce Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I'm looking to commission a flight suit and vest (I have zero sewing skills). I've heard that Chunk provides a good product, but it seems like his is MIA at the moment. Any other suggestions? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammonites Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I just adjusted a flight suit I got from an army surplus store. It's not that hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BikerScout007 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I second that. Gabe makes all the soft goods: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Maxs-Sci-fi-Creation-Shop/1651285501763603?fref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScoutDawn Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Imo the lady suggested on sc website does sub par work . I paid 200 only to have to have someone else do corrections to it. Its better then I could have sewn but really expected it to be correct 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikko Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I am sending my redkap coveralls to Gabe soon. He'll be creating all of my soft parts. I don't have the skill or the time to create that, so I'll pay him. It'll be very worth it to me.

Nacho Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Checking out his FB, he looks like the real deal. Seems like a great source for soft goods. Anyone have an idea on pricing for all of it (Vest, Cumberbund, and suit?) I can just hit him up i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexous Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Not sure about the pricing, but another bump for Gabe. He's a nice dude in person and he'll take care of you, personally wish I knew he was around before I dove into doing the leg work myself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Chef (on this forum) makes a top-notch vest and also does cummerbunds. Good stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nacho Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Contacted Gabe, He is the real deal. Will definitely order from him in the near future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonzipper Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I've posted a comment and PM'd Gabe about commissioning soft partsabout two weeks ago: still haven't heard back. Does he generally take that long to get in touch with you or should I try another method (e-mail, phone)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonzipper Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Yes. I wasn't too clear - I posted to his page and sent a message on messenger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Try him again. If you still have a problem let me know and I'll reach out to him for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexous Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Gabe's pretty good with responses... I've contacted him a few times for things but ended up not going through with it and he's been nice about it. He also does a lot of troops / family stuff so it may be a good idea to nudge him a little as suggested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonzipper Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Thanks all! I did finally make contact. Third times the charm, I guess! He was very helpful and answered all my questions. He's making a new and more accurate bund that has a separate cod piece. The cod piece attaches to the vest and the bund is worn over both. I hope to be able to get him my payment next week.

Nexous Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Yup yup, that's the conception of Mr.BikerScout007 Eventually hoping to move toward that, but will keep mine for the time being until money isn't an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retrofire Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Does anyone know where to find Gabe on BSN? I checked under Gabe and his company name but no joy. I am interested in a flight suit and I would like to send him a PM. Thanks! -Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
