i have a few questions:

What kind of filler do i use for the helmet to make it seamless? i figured bondo but are there anyothers?

Does anyone have a pattern for a smaller cumberland/pouches?

does the back and chest connect like a tk with elastic straps at the shoulders, and sides?

Do the bikerscout gloves come in a size small enough for a toddler?

and lastly what material is the belt made out of?

Sorry about all of the questions but never built a biker scout before.

Thanks

I used a wide mens belt painted white (tulips fabric paint or ecoflow leather paint to avoid cracking).

I almost always use flexible fillers- but especially on kids gear. flexible 'plastic surgery' by dominion

sure seal is my weapon of choice but there are many (auto body supply shop). For a toddler: print out

the pouch templates on this forum (fit to page on 8.5x11) print- check that out- should be the right

size for a toddler. I used a velcro strip to attach chest and back covered by a white twill sleeve- same

as the grown up kits. Good luck with the gloves- I suggest kids riding gloves (thats all i used for kids

costumes) with homemade gauntlets sewn on. You can craft the ribbed section on the gloves if you're

so inclined. I used 2 sided velcro throughout the build (wraps aroun onto itself) use that instead of

elastic straps- works great. Hope this helps.
