"soft goods are not my strongest suit" says the man who's just sewn that whole thing without using pins, and nailed that topstitching beautifully. I can sew decently well, and even I end up with stray pins everywhere.
I cannot wait to see you completed the whole armor and wear it.
Me and my brother are planning to make a mando and boba cosplay and your videos have been a huge help!! Thank you so much!
Always informative, thanks.
This is great.
I'm trying to cobble together my own armor out of old metal and your helmet Building vid is what introduced me to this channel
This guy is a man of focus commitment sheer f****** will
You’re living every boys dream with this amor!🤯
All I remember from watching my mum sewing was to iron everything. Also looking forward to your take on making "Rising Phoenix"?
can't wait to see the full armor
Watched this but had no clue what was going on, wish this was a newbie guide like showing exactly what was what and what to do :)
I’m putting together my 3D printed mando helmet Rn I just wish I was good at metal like you it seems so hard to get into though
I would say the same thing about 3D printing 😁 sometimes I think we need to just jump in
TheWeldingGeek dang idk about that I started printing on Christmas and already feel like I got the hang of it, you look like you’ve acquired your metal working skillz from years of experience
@@theweldinggeek The sad thing is that getting to work with metal isn't that easy. But 3D printing, everyone can buy a printer these days.
I'm enjoying seeing the whole armour build process come together, thanks for sharing Matt.
Great job in the vest! Fantastic!
Love the heavy duty machines. Proper kit for the job 👍
That stitching was perfect!
This is super cool! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
I can't wait to watch your new videos, they are so entertaining and seeing how much fun you have with this build, hope you continue to make more.
Great video man. I've watched all your Mandalorian build starting with the helmet. As a fan of youtube makers (colinfurze, Hacksmith, odinmakes), I can tell that your outputs are one of the best that I have seen, though the video quality and editing can be improved more. The earlier videos are too long to watch, you can change with vlog - timelapse - vlog format. I think that updating the audience in what's currently happening in the build is more effective than timelapse video with voice over. With that kind of content I can see that your channel will grow faster this year.
Awesome! Really well done! I would love the helmet and armour made out of steel! When you say you’re not good with soft stuff, I don’t think that’s accurate! You seem very good with it! Look forward to the finished suit.
absolutely loving your progress so far man. Im gonna be working on the armor bits via 3d printing myself but yours blows everything outve the water. 10/10 job man
Nicely done, Matt! You made some solid decisions here! Nice machine! Let us know how we can make some advanced actuation electronics for you... I smell a collab video...
Whistling Birds Actuator !!
Very nicely done!! Love it!
I was sort of hoping that you would make this out of kevlar or something that provides real protection. Still looks great though!
Can't wait to see the whole costume ready. Awesome job so far!
A "little" distracted? :-P Great video again
It would be amazing if you could build the jetpack love your videos your uhmazing
Nice job bro 👍
This is the way
Those screws are stickning out a bit, don't they hurt when you move around?
Suprsingly no all my kits are mounted this way and you don’t feel them
Curious as to the weight of the flak, now that plates and hardware are mounted to it. my issue with my own costuming has always been the disconnect between how heavy something looks and is, so I imagine with a little weight to it... you start feeling like a Mando, not just look it.
It’s not super heavy but you definitely feel like your in a real kit
I tried the shirt technique and it did not go well at all for me, but with of what I’m guessing is the style that I chose is where everything is held together by these big flaps in the back so it kind of causes everything to be a size to big, I have had to cut of about an inch off of the replica now, if you ever come across of a tutorial on this that says, you need to use a good fitting shirt. Do what they say or just find one, because I didn’t do that and I regretted it
Can we see the full set all work together? Great videos brother 💪🏻
Hopefully soon 😁
TheWeldingGeek hype! Just went through and saw all your other Mando sets you’ve built and damn bro you’ve got some serious talent! Thanks for sharing your work with us!
did you make your sewing table? and thread tree? I definitly need a table like this for my machine. since its not an industrial machine I cant find a table itll drop into.
an interior liner or gambeson would make it more comfortable I think.
Two questions. Now that he has a jet pack will you be making one of those out of aluminum and will you be making a Mando phase pulse blaster rifle? Oh and are you going to put his sigil on the shoulder plate?
I probably will make the jet pack and sigilat some point but the kit I’m making is the ch 3-7 and I’m to make both the blaster pistol and rifle
Can you make Mangalore in armour for kids
Hey Matt, Is there a CRL or anything for THE MANDALORIAN costume yet? I know the 501st and Mercs have different CRL's, but just curious if you've seen anything with good reference photos yet. Great job man!
I have not seen a CRL yet I imagine it will take a bit it’s a pretty complex costume plus there are multiple versions of it
This show has shaken things up for sure. I’m a Biker Scout and I haven’t checked the forums since the last episode but one of them has a different cummerbund length.
Old crl: length xx height xx exact ribs xx
New crl: if it’s there, you’re good.
😂🤘🤘
Also, throw some collectibles on your amazon affiliate thing. I’m sure your audience is like me and we’re already looking for figures and shirts
How many yards of material did you use for the vest? What would you recomend?
Well when are you going to make the ship ;)
ok... How much would you charge for a full armor build and how long would it take?
Hey when you gonna put out your templates Matt? I'm waiting to buy em!
They are on TheWeldingGeek Facebook group 😁
@@theweldinggeek ummm what if a dude doesn't have Facebook?
Hmmm not sure
@@theweldinggeek lol fack. Roger confirmed
EPIC
This answers my question on the chest plate video. Yes there is a flack vest that holds the breast plate
Here's a link to the Forgotten Weapons video- Maybe it can help with your blaster build ruclips.net/video/JvGa2c3rEuE/видео.html
Hey Matt What was the Flak vest made from? I think I may have missed that part.
Duck cloth I linked where I got it from in the description 😁
TheWeldingGeek thanks man.
But is your vest made of armor weave? ;:v
What material are you using for the soft parts?
Links in the description
@@theweldinggeek thanks I must of missed it😅
Do the nuts and the pem studs not poke you? It looks rather uncomfortable.
Hello! What material is this?
It’s duck cloth
@@theweldinggeek thanks! Still can't find anything with that name in my country 😁 damn, there's so many types of cotton
Try canvas I think duck cloth is just a lighter weight canvas
I work in TV, so I'd like to suggest that you save the reveal for the end of the video, not in your cold open. It kind of spoils it when you put it at the beginning.
Well, this isn't TV. Lol. I personally prefer to see the final product in the cold open so that I know whether or not the video is even worth watching. I love all of the things @theweldinggeek makes, but I had to crawl through a lot of crap to get here - watching long videos for something that wasn't even good in the end.
May the Schwartz be with you...
