Cummerbund shape and fabric

[rostwortrooper]

Guys, have a question regarding fabric for cummerbund and design. It is heavy cotton, but not pure white. Pouches are from the same fabric. Do I need to change it or is it still acceptable?

I will have to change number of ribs, because I have 6. Will also need to make it little bit smaller, it’s not my size:)

What about pouches, are they ok? Is there any size for them?

Will be grateful for all your comments!

Hi Pawel, the bund shouldn't be off white, but from what I can see in the photo, the color is fine.

 

Obviously you've noted that you'll need to fix the number of ribs.

 

Pouches should be 6x5x2. Check this thread for detailed designs: http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=19200&hl=&fromsearch=1

 

I think that bund should be ok for basic clearance once you make the described alterations and adjustments.

 

However, if you're going to put all threat work info it, you might want to think about a getting new bund with a separate cod. That way you'll be able to go Lancer if you so desire.

Thanks. Right now I just want to use all the parts which I get with the armor. Make only adjustments and modifications with lower cost just for basic approval.

Than I will have more time and can play wit that costume. We are also checking our local tailors so maybe in the future we can make soft parts here:)

One more question regarding ribs. Are they need to be “3D”?

Do you mean, do the vertical ribs need to be padded out?

 

The CRL for level 1 says "Front of cummerbund has 6 vertical stitch lines, centered between the two fabric pouches, producing 5 raised ribs of equal width."

 

In my read of the CRL, the word "raised" means that there should be at least some padding in the ribs, yes. You could ask your GML, since that will be the person clearing you for the detachment, but my interpretation is: yes padding.

Thanks Chopper. Now it’s clear, so I will also need to put som padding inside.
