Christmas Break help

Post by Zachg56 »

I am wondering if anyone is available in the week after Christmas, those 3-4 days between Christmas and New Years, that is willing to help me work on the last few things on my armor before I head out to Japan... Essentially what needs to be done is trimming/refitting the chest/back piece putting the holster in, as well as fixing up the voice system in the helmet.

If so, give me a private message or something so I know

OH and have a Merry Christmas everyone

If ya got a drem, all you need is a miror and the trimming you could get done in a few hours, maybe less if it is just the chest and back. The speakers could wait till you get back. A lot of troopers do not even have them in the buckets.

Though I'm from MI, I spent the last year down in Ashland, KY (near where WV, OH, and KY meet). The heart (or a-hole depending on your point of view) of Appalachia.

I'ma have to bow out right now... The wife is having complications from the pregnancy, so I have to pretty much be homebound as much as possible to try and take care of her.

I'll give Triker a holler, the wife may actually be booting me out of the house on Thursday or so, if that happens, i'll give you a shout and let you know... If not, I can always pass along contact info.. The man has a dentist drill that fits dremel attachments... This thing drilled through a solid resin DE-10 like it was butter :D

Got a hold of him, he's going to see what his availability is.. My work canceled my shift early today, but they refuse to give me more than 1-2 hours notice, so no idea if any of us are free... With wives during the holidays, considering we both have multiple costumes going, we sorta have to make up for lost time and play nice. :wink:
