You have to find that stuff, thats the fun part.

Bigaboy has the hose connectors, as for the rod for the bottom gaunlet I used a 1 inch diameter aluminum pipe and crimped the end shut the dowel fits snug in the other end.

Riffkintoy's Gauntlets certainly look very good, no doubt about that

Anyone in the UK make good gauntlets or will I have to make my own ? ( which I was going to do at some point anyway, just not yet ):)

Really need to find a pair soon :)
 
Just got my hopse connectors from BigaBoyFett today, and gotta say its great to see how members help each other out!


The hose connectors are awesome, and the help I received was amazing.

thanks!!

I also have a ruffkin's rotj gauntlet set, though I painted them in ESB colours... :p well it's something not alot of people do right?? hey! I'm 17, I'm supposed to go against the mass right??

anyways, I think the best way to make em fit is to use TK-409's tips, they work excellent (thnx Chris)!

you can find alot of good pics on the site on how to fit u gauntlets.



(that wrong coloured jumpsuit is a great pain in the ***, got a new one now)

I just bought a gauntlet kit from Ruffkins and it's on its way. Sure could use some tips on painting , weathering and any other modifications I can do .What are the best colors and paint brands . I have liquid mask ready to go and some paints as I just started painting the shoulder and knee armor .What a about the key pad ? Is resin alright or should I souurce a real one ? HELP !

the keypad looked nice on mine, aswell as the entire kit all together. it's great. although I didnt get teh tube that goes on the side of teh right rotj gaunt, but than it wasnt in teh auction either, just pointin out you have to make that from scratch.

if im going to do a new Fett soon, I'll make sure to get anotehr one of these kits, theyre great!
