Forest Ranger Posted May 9, 2016 Author Posted May 9, 2016 Gonna go back with elastic on the undersides, armor's a little too tight to get on, and off with cotton webbing. 1 Quote
Griffin-X Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Gonna go back with elastic on the undersides, armor's a little too tight to get on, and off with cotton webbing. Yeah, I know how that feels! And the bund looks great! Chef makes good stuff! 1 Quote
Retrofire Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 I sewed elastic to both side of my cotton webbing straps to give the front and back pieces a bit of "flex". You can only see the cotton between the plates but there's elastic where it attaches to the armor. The bund and cod look great! 2 Quote

Forest Ranger Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 Belt is done, TD clips are drying with a second coat of fresh paint. 2 Quote
Retrofire Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 The clips look great and it's awesome to see your belt assembly all together. I bet that flight suit can't get there fast enough 2 Quote
Forest Ranger Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 Test fitting, needs obvious little adjustments, but almost there. 1 Quote
Forest Ranger Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 What "obvious adjustments"? I need to mess with my cod piece, and trim my belt in the back so my TD hides the velcro, other than that I might just be OCD. 1 Quote

Forest Ranger Posted May 17, 2016 Author Posted May 17, 2016 Time to start your pre-approval thread.....YAY! That will come Saturday when Jim, and his wife get me all fixed up for photos. I'll be submitting the same day, but I might as well throw it on here then as well for the sake of it. 1 Quote

Retrofire Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 That's what I did to keep my suit from bagging up around the boot tops and knee armor. Nice work! 2 Quote
AShadyPanda Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Made stirrups for my flightsuit tonight. Everything is lookin great, Cheyenne! Looking forward to approval pics! Only problem I see with this is that your choice of drink is a Coke and not a Pepsi 1 Quote
