Help please? Belt and Detonator (How to trim smaller?)


Recommended Posts

Dear All,

 

I've just received my armor and having issues with the belt & detonator as I am petite my waist is size UK 8/ US 4.

 

I've researched how to trim for the belt for female sizes and I found

Fifetrooper (Riblet15)

 

I am not sure if this method is approved? if it is, kindly please lead me to the tutorial, I can't seem to find it :( :( :(

please advise and assist, Thank you!

Hello Nisa!

 

It's a good video, but it really depends on the armour you're purchasing and what the belt looks like. Some kits are single-piece belts, others have several pieces (the SC kit has 3 pieces and is what she used in the video).

 

Your best solution would be to post some photos of your belt pieces and we can assist you from there. :)

My wife is a size2 & she has a 1pc KS. Im jelous of her because on her there is just a small gap between the hard belt & the ends of her thermal detonator.

I will take close ups tomorrow for you. I gently hit the KS belt with s heat gun from about 2 feet away. Soon as it was soft I placed it around my wife's waist to get the perfect fit.

My belt is small, what do you want pictures of?

 

too make mine smaller I heated up the sides with a heat gun and pressed it down on a flat surface to give it extra curve, then I dunked it in ice water to freeze the shape.
