Rugrat Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Hello everyone! I have received my armor from SC, boots from Walmart, white vinyl and glue from Joanne's, balaclava, and gloves from Wampawear. I just ordered coveralls from Red Kap via Amazon, which should be here by Friday. My bucket and blaster will be shipped in May from KS. Is there anything I'm forgetting before I start my build? 1
BikerScout007 Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Did you order some suede from Tandy Leather? https://www.tandyleather.com/en/product/glazed-pigskin-lining-leather
Chunk Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 2" black elastic for around the thighs & 3/4" if you wanna make stir ups. 2" black NON sticky velcro for the vest, 2" white NON sticky velcro for the bund. 2yds of black cotton canvas for the vest, 3yrds of white/off white cotton canvas for tge bund & pouches.
stasz Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 5/32" dia rivets/rivet gun if you don't have one, and washers.
Rugrat Posted April 27, 2016 Author Posted April 27, 2016 Thanks! Will check into all of this stuff but I'm hoping that the people helping me with my build will have all of it. Wish me luck!

TB-17317 Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Did you order some suede from Tandy Leather? https://www.tandyleather.com/en/product/glazed-pigskin-lining-leather Just curious how much to buy to cover the patches and back? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
BikerScout007 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 The standard piece you get from Tandy was more than enough for the thighs and butt patch with a lot left over
Rugrat Posted July 4, 2016 Author Posted July 4, 2016 Finished my build on Wednesday and got approved Saturday! WOOHOO! Now I need patches. Can anyone help? 1
Retrofire Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Congrats Lori! There was a patch run earlier this year but I believe that it's closed. A suggestion would be to get your profile updated with your 501st info and then head over to the 501st access thread here: http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showforum=82 and put in your request. That way you'll have access to those areas including the merch.
