Well, time to dust off this thread and get my build back on track. It has been way too long.

I spent the weekend fixing countless broken Photobucket image links here, Whitearmor.net and Bikerscout.net for both mine and my son's threads.

What a mess, fortunately I had backups of everything. I created an account on imgur and moved everything there.

Anyway, I am really hoping to get both mine and my son's builds done by Dragoncon this year.

I am looking forward to getting back into the build and I am sure I will have lots of questions over the next 6 months

It can seem overwhelming but give it a shot. If you take your time and ask lots of questions you should be able to do this...

Have you checked out the Getting Started thread at FISD, would definitely start there?

Also, search for build threads both here and at FISD, you will find lots of useful information.

Start your own build thread, post questions there and show the progress as you go, you will get lots of help...

Hey all,

Anyone know of any vendors out there that do the soft parts for a Biker Scout?

We were working with a vendor in California but we have been waiting 8 months and I am at a point of requesting a refund.

Thanks

Bob

Unfortunately I don't think it is going to happen this time It just never really took off. I will try again over the summer.

Anything in particular you are looking for help with? Not that I have any experience with clone armor but, you never know....

I am a noob at this as well. I am pretty sure we can figure it out though.

I am pretty sure we will have some more experienced builders coming too.

How does April 30th look? My finals are actually over on the 28th so that could also work...

Depending on the time I can make that. I have a March of Dimes event that morning in Greenville, but I can make tinemfor this as well.

I imagine it will be something like 10AM - 6PM and people can come and go as their schedules permit. Hopefully that will work for everyone.

No date yet, hoping to give it a bit more time to see if we can get more participants.

I have finals in a couple of weeks so I was thinking the first weekend of May.

How about Saturday May 7? Who can make it then?

I am in the Clemson area in South Carolina. So Greenville, Columbia, Easley, and Spartanburg are all in reach. So essentially all of Upstate SC is doable.

-Edit- I will be at the G'Ville ComiCon on Saturday as a TK with a 501st buddy of mine, Teddy Hatcher he isn't planning on running with the main group at least not at first. I just don't want to just show up out of the blue without coordinating to talking to people doing events in my area.

I take it that maybe I saw you there Lion

Is there a tentative date when you all are planning to have yours?

If I can get enough interest for having one here, what would be a good timeframe for everyone?

Thanks

Bob

Great with me, the more the merrier

Where are you located?

Hey all,

As the subject says, anyone interested in putting together an armor party in the Upstate, SC area?

I am in Clemson but I work in Greenville. I could host in Clemson if there is interest.

My build has sort of ground to a halt lately as school and work have been pretty hectic.

Here is my build thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7247" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Looking to get it going again in the hopes I can have it done and approved in time for DragonCon.

Let me know if anyone is interested...

Thanks

Bob

Hey all,

I haven't seen any posts about SC Comicon coming up next week. Anyone planning to attend?

I will be there with my kids both days. The wife might even tag along on Sunday.

Would love to put faces to some names, hope to see you all there!

I had really hoped to have my build done in time for SC Comicon, too much else going on.

I will definitely have it done by DragonCon!

Anyone know of any armor parties coming up in the Greenville, SC or surrounding areas?

I have pretty much everything I need to complete my build with the exception of the under suit and the neck seal.

I am pretty sure I am going to go with the Veedox neck seal. Any tips on finding compression wear with minimal logos?

I have been scouring Amazon but anything that looks like it will fit the bill either is not available in my size or is way too expensive.

What brands are you guys wearing?

Thanks

Bob
