New Jango WIP

your gonna look like one Tuff Mofo!

When you set the snaps you will want the CA glue as has been said, but I would highly suggest to get some accelarator too. It sets the glue instantly and allows you to put the snaps on very precisely.

You can get some at trooperbay, and he delivers very fast.

Thanks mulreel! As always Ill be looking to u guys for assistance.. Although I did use the hot glue... ive tried to get it off by pulling, prauding etc...seems concrete unless I heat. Will look into the CA for sure though.

Looking good bro, when you are all done with this bad boy we will have to get a pic of you wearing it in the octagon!!!

One thing to remember with hot glue is that while trooping, the temp on the backside of the armor gets pretty warm. The troop that I did in December for the Snowball Express was in 40 degree temps outside and my armor was still damp from sweat when it was over. If you are trooping in higher heats like we get here in Texas, your body heat plus the heat of the day may be enough to weaken the glue.

I have seen several guys use hot glue on visors, and they fail at the most inopportune time.

Just a heads up on that.

Great insite Mullreel! Thanks bud

Since we have ran down the glue rabbit path..........here is the stuff I use, and recommend

2 Ounce Zap a Gap CA+ Glue | eBay

Zip Kicker Accelerant for Zap a Gap CA+ Glue | eBay

I have ordered from trooperbay several times and he is one of the few ebay sellers that I trust to order from, he is a 501st member and has fast service and delivery.

i personally like this glue Amazon.com: Maxi-Cure Extra Thick Glue, 1 oz.: Home Improvement

and this accelerant http://www.amazon.com/Bob-Smith-151-...7730931&sr=1-1

Those are great links for glue. Thanks!!!

Great work so far. I've just started on my Jango build. Helmet should arrive within a week.

Thanks guys!...slowly but surely

Dynamic - That seems to be the builder's motto: "Slowly but Surely." Anyhow, I had to do a couple of "tweaks" on the Girth for you. I should be able to get it in the mail by this Friday or Saturday. Like the vest, it will be a passable placeholder until you get your hands on a leather one.

Someone say leather girth? I know of this TDH member who makes them
