Re: Going to start pre-trimming tonight!
Okay, moment of truth: I'm going to start pre-trimming the armor pieces tonight so I can make the most of my time at Ripcode's armor party on Saturday. Been studying the Ukswrath build link like a hawk, and I suspect I'll return to it regularly. But we gotta start somewhere they say. Utility knife,...

Re: GRAND RAPIDS metro area TK armor party
How the armor is connected together (velcro or snaps) doesn't matter for Centurion. Just the external viewable things, like the snap on the top right of the ab plate, the rivets on the left side, etc. All the basic stuff you need should already be in the box that the armor came in. Any variation on ...

Re: DETROIT metro area TK armor party
I still say pick an area and everyone helps each other do all that to completion. Arms or legs most likely. Next armor party move onto the next section, etc.

Re: ANN ARBOR metro area TK armor party
Brewski, bring along your TK when you go, so they can see what an accurate one with the butt-jointed parts looks like up close.

Re: GRAND RAPIDS metro area TK armor party
No problem. Everyone is going to need more than one armor party to build their suits, anyway. I'm sure there will be another one on your side of the state at some point.

Re: DETROIT metro area TK armor party
Well the whole point of these threads was for people in your area to create your own dates and locations for armor parties.R4ZORBL4DE wrote:Depending on the date, I could attend and possibly host.
Discuss amongst yourselves once more people reply in the metro Detroit section here.
