Aradun Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Sorry don't have pics to upload... I'm not liking the drop box method, pasting a link. My apologies...I personally find the Tapatalk App the easiest way to post pics to the forum. They appear right in your post so no need to click on links and you can do everything from your phone. The app is free. While they do put a limit on the number of pics you can post each month using the free version, it’s a pretty generous allotment, which serves most users just fine. I didn’t know about Tapatalk until a few months into joining the Pathfinders as a recruit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopper Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 The red square is not a part of the CRL. You don't need to add it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAD1_TK45001 Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 UPDATE Salutations one and all... unfortunately with the holidays it was an all stop on the armor building. but I bring good news. I have a son with needs and him watching me build the scout he asked if he can have it. Since I am all ready 501st I'm passing the armor to him. On Jan he will turn 18, so starting next year I will be purchasing his flight suit and soft parts. So he can join the ranks.... I will most indubitably be purchasing another set of armor for myself. Thank you one and all for all your advice and help... Long live the Empire! MAD1 TK.45001 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 That sounds like a worthy use of your existing scout armor set. I hope that he enjoys it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aradun Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I concur with Chopper! What an awesome development. It’s one that will bring joy to you both, and being able to troop together will be a great experience with many shared memories for you and your son! Looking forward to his becoming a Pathfinder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAD1_TK45001 Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 Salutations one and all... HERE WE GOO!! As I stated, the armor now pertains to my son. Uncle same came through (taxes) 😃😃 So onward for the Empire. I've noticed there's two types of coveralls that are used, Redkap and Kolossus? What's recommended zipper or snaps?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Either will work as long as you can't see the zipper or snaps under the outer costume parts. My current coveralls are RedKap, but it's really heavy material and not very breathable. It's also short in the torso, which isn't always super comfortable. I've got a pair of Kolossus coveralls that I need to start working on for my replacement set. The material is much nicer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aradun Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I concur with Chopper. If you’re interested, I did a comparison of the two in the thread below.http://forum.501stpathfinders.com/index.php?/topic/22827-red-kap-vs-kolossus-coveralls-a-comparison/Owning both, I prefer the kolossus for it’s overall comfort.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
