heartstopper85 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 It doesn't seem like these go all the way around like the Shoretrooper faulds do, so I think making two separate pieces that hang from the already existing belt is fine. Also, to the extent it helps, my Shoretrooper fauld is 10 inches highYeah need to look at the belt boxes that gives an ideaSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it have that clip on it too? The clip is easy to make. That's what I was thinking. They look very similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPoopie Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 It's difficult to totally nail this down with a measurement of the boots width at the middle of the spat an dthen the length of the spat at the widest and then the height at the tallest point. The front part that you can't see looks similar to the back but it's thinner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BikerScout007 Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 So I guess this needs to be made to fit a wide variety of leg sizes. It seems that most of the FO costumes have the spats? Do they use velcro to close them? I assume those clips are just greeblies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I use velcro for my fo spatsKb you can trim to size but bit tallJim Tripons are shorter usually fit a wide variety of sizesCalvin was telling me there are just two halves that connect. I couldn't see the clip on the figure it's clear as day on the pyre in the same pack.Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Most ankles are roughly the same size so there shouldn't be too much variation in the size. If it's ABS you can cut them to size since it'll most likely be 2 pieces. It it's 3D printed you'll just need to scale accordingly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPoopie Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Here are the links to the MT-Spats. The dimensions seem off though. If someone who has boots can print one to see if they're correct it would help. I can adjust the model if it's wrong. If printed in one piece this should just be able to slide over the boot without any issues. MT-Spat_Left MT-Spat_Right My suggestion would be to put some velcro on the inside of the spats (soft side) and velcro sewn at the bottoms of the gaiters (rough side) so everything stays in place nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
