heartstopper85 Posted September 9, 2020 Author Posted September 9, 2020 Do you have a Shoretrooper kit handy? If not, I'll take a measurement off mine. No I sold that years agoSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

BikerScout007 Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 I got 2.5 wide by .5 high. Sent from my LM-G710 using Tapatalk
heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 Maybe scale that down on this kit or no?Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk I would scale it down slightly, try to get closer to 2.5" wide and 0.5" like the Shore Trooper and also make sure it's perpendicular with the bottom edge.

I would bring it in just a tiny bit on the width then, maybe another 1/4"-1/2". It's really just a judgement call to see if it looks similar to the figure. Thoughts, anyone else?
heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 Maybe this will help draw something up. The long lines represent 1in the short lines are every 1/2inThe vertical side lines are 1/2in Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
BikerScout007 Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Looks like it sits a bit lower and about 1.5 inches from the front of the chest armor. Sent from my LM-G710 using Tapatalk
heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 Like that. Figured I could move around this green tape to try to figure this outSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1
BikerScout007 Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 I think the positioning on that looks good. @MrPoopie?
Wompet Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Might I suggest 0.5" by 2.25", roughly 0.75" from the lower edge, starting where the chest bends back to form the side wing, and more rectangular than the Shoretrooper.

heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 Just need to clean rectangle up a bit more but this is roughed in based on suggestions Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1

BikerScout007 Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Yeah definitely think it's more Scout than Shore looking at that close up of the indent. Seem to be on the right track here! 1
heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 Cool well I'm about to be brave and get my router bit out.Luckily I have a ton of scrap absSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1
heartstopper85 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Posted September 10, 2020 How does this depth look?Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1
BikerScout007 Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 I think that's fine. As long as there is SOME depth we're good.
