Re: Ripcode's ATA TK build

I like how your helmet has an accurate high brow. Most of us (including me) don't have the high brow look. I want to fix mine but don't feel like taking my helmet apart. Good job

Re: Michigan 501st - CHARITY HISTORY

Don't forget the check for $200 donation from the birthday party we did for St. Judes Childrens Hospital :thumbs:

And yesterday someone paid $50.00 to Leukemia and lymphoma society for my appearance but they paid it directly to the organization. I don't know if your totals include this or not.

Re: Hello future 501st members!

Everything looks good other that the knee being off center as Jerry said. Take caution when removing the rivets to adjust it because when you drill them out it will melt the plastic if you heat up to much. Drill slowly and stop once in a while. As far as the butt plate goes. It looks fine to me. Eve...

Re: Tube stripe replacements/help

I have never removed my tube stripes but I have removed vinyl from a car very easily by warming it up with a hair dryer. (assuming that yours are not painted on) But do not heat it up to much because you can screw up the abs.

This guy sells them.

Re: underarmor care

Wags is right. Mine is pilling where my armor rubs on the edges. Initially i did not have it sanded smooth but that has since been corrected. For just keeping warm, you should have no problems.

Re: Lookin for flexible welding shield.

I picked one up yesterday at Robinson welding supply. (Thanks Keanu!) They don't carry the #3 but had one laying around so gave it to me for 7.50. He said if anyone else needs one call a couple days ahead of time and he can get one for you. I believe they are 13.50. I made it so it extended past the...

Lookin for flexible welding shield.

I looked at Lowes, Harbor Freight, and Ace with no luck. I am done looking for the day. Where in the Garden City area can I fend a flexible welding shield to replace the green lense that came with my AP helmet? I know I can get them from a few guys on FISD but I should be able to pick one up locally...
