    Thanks, this is really helpful. I'm about 75% through 3D printing my own costume from an Etsy purchase. Sadly, the package I bought doesn't include any instructions for making it all wearable, nor does it include details about the neck seal and other 'soft' parts. I really appreciate this detailed tutorial, thanks so much.

      Thanks, Stuart. I had a troop the following day so this seemed like a perfect opportunity to kit up and film. :-)
      Good thing is, at a troop you usually have a few more troopers that can assist, if required. That can be handy. 👍🏻☺️

      Yeah, I fear that a little, too. Next week I will have my second ever troop, but without my daughter who knows my Boba Fett kit in and out. I have to rely on my fellow Mercs, who already said they are more than willing to help me. As I did some technical things a bit differently than what is the norm there, I hope I can get everything on. I try to put on the majority myself, but the jetpack is where I am lost.

    Love the updated video. Planning to print a TK helmet. Is it correct to assume that a TK helmet is too big if you don't "twist" the helmet as you put it on?

    • @cableguydan
      @cableguydan  Год назад

      Many thanks, Jeffrey.
      TBH, I’m not sure with 3D printed helmets. I’ve only ever stayed with vac formed ABS helmets for original trilogy helmets. With the ones I’ve built, you’re correct that they should go on at an angle due to the size and shape of the originals.
      Have you found a good 3D file/model? I’m yet to find the one but would be interested to see when/if one becomes available. :-)

    Very useful video, thank you! May I ask, is there a video (or maybe will be one) where you go in depth with how to put velcro, poppers and split rivets on the armor? Thanks again for the great work as usual

    • @cableguydan
      @cableguydan  Год назад +1

      Hi Ameelus. Thanks for your lovely feedback. ☺️👍🏻
      I don’t have any plans for those videos at the moment, I’m afraid. The armour in the video uses the bracket system, rather than poppers etc.
      But, I’d highly recommend my friend Ross, maker of RWA Armour. He’s done full videos on the poppers and rivets, etc. Here’s a good place to start: ruclips.net/video/PyFGMPx-gIU/видео.html

      Hey Flashy. Many thanks. ☺️🙏
      Mine was purchased a few years ago, but was a GearX undersuit from EBay. Around £30GBP. I cannot see exactly the same one but you should find a few similar on eBay.
      If not, I hear that local sports shops also sell them sometimes - brands like Sondico. 👍🏻

      Hi Fabien,
      Thank you for the lovely feedback.
      This armour is from Troopermaster. Depending on your budget, I’d also consider looking at RS Prop Masters and RWA Creations.
      The voice system is from TRamp (trooper amp). I talk about it more in this video. :-)
