Strapping


Recommended Posts

Well according to my parcelforce my MC box of tricks should be arriving sometime today, however I seem to have lost some of my reference material.

 

I need (for Lancer) the widths and types i.e. webbing / elastic for:

 

- shoulder bridge

- belt

- drop boxes

- rib join between front & back armour

 

Thanks

Everything you need is in the MonCal armor box. They will have a bag with all the strapping included.

 

I thought they supply the bright white nylon stuff? So I've got some of the natural cotten strapping in - just not sure what widths to do where & whether its white cotten webbing or white elastic (obviousley not natural) that goes under the arm / accross the ribs

MonCal supplies cotton where cotton is required. You may want to wait until you receive the package before you start buying up strapping you don't need. From my recollection, Moncal comes with the appropriate strapping, including the off white drop box straps in cotton.

As for sizes needed:

 

Chest to Backplate connection: 1.5 inch wide elastic/cotton strap (off white) <-- I simply dyed white ones with tea

Dropbox belt: 1.5 inch wide cotton webbing (off white)

Belt back: 2 inch wide nylon web belt (white)

 

There is no spec on the shoulder joint connection. I used 2 inch nylon webbing and pop riveted it to the armor. It is not seen as it is covered with a wrap.
