Pouch dimensions

[Bally]

G'day all.  I've revived my Kashyyyk Trooper build and am starting to make some good progress.  Since I started though the CRL has been revised and Level 2 specs added.

My question is... is the best way to go with the pouches the old standard dimensions

e.g.-

or the dimensions in the Level 2 certification in the CRL?

They're quite a bit different.

I assume you must have started a long time ago?  Because those changes were made in 2018.  

The best way to go is to stick with the latest standards.  But if you aren't going for Level 2, then you don't have to match what's in the CRL, just come reasonably close.

Thanks mate, yeah, let's just say I started before then.  I'd designed them for 3D printing so they shouldn't be too hard to adjust the models to the new sizes.  Thanks.

Oh another question on them then.  The pictures indicate a curve in the front of the 'grenade' pouches.  Do these still remain after the revision?

The pictures in the CRL have a slight curve so I'd stick with that

Having now actually done the maths on this, there's no way I can achieve the Level 2 measurements.  That's an absolute minimum of 98cm needed around to fit just the pouches.  I'm at 85cm around (yeah don't hate me, cancer last year helped out) so even with the suit and cummerbund adding a bit there's no way I can fit them, let alone have a gap at the front.  I suppose I'll be relying on the "... proportional to the wearer in scale, fit and size" part of the CRL description to get through.

Still submit for approval, if your size prevents you from making the pouches the exact size. Submit for approval with what you have. It might just be what we are looking for.
