Belt question

[Lucas1138]

Is there a limit to how many boxes must be on the belt?

 

I'm quite slim, and 2 side boxes on either side can pretty much wrap around me...with just slightly more then enough gap for a buckle

 

The second boxes in the back are getting in the way of my TD

 

If anyone has any ideas on how I could modify or resolve this problem while staying acceptable that'd be awesome

No idea of the dimensions, but perhaps a kid-size belt from WTF? It would probably look undersized, especially if you are average male adult height. Just an idea.

I was thinking the same thing, Kevin. Or maybe a kid's detonator that wouldn't overlap the belt so much?

 

The problem is going to be either of those parts looking undersized relative to the rest of the armor.

 

I don't think you'd be able to cut off the last boxes on either side though. Have you tried it all on? The detonator tube might overhang the plastic belt ends enough to make it work. Or maybe trim down the det tube and the box a little?

I keep trying to upload a photo but it's too large I guess lol

I'll have to do it via my laptop later

i would guess if your not going for lancer then you can cut the belt/boxes and move them around .. make a 3 piece the belt!

 

ONLY lancer status states:

"10. Belt Ideally should be made from a one piece construction with no visible gaps, and not separated with fabric in between sections, apart from at the back where the TD box sits. Making any joins in a 3 part belt seamless, is highly recommended."

 

so, with that i think i would cut the belt up into 3 pieces make it fit me(you) and go for basic .. as the basic requirements do not state anything about the belt in the manner lancer does.

 

ideally and highly recommended are stated for lancer but, it doesnt say it has to be that way ... lancer okays a 3 piece belt it just has to be done right and i think there could be some special considerations taken for instances like this. but, thats not my call ...

 

 

good luck!
