Thanks, Nick. Just asking because yeah it seems like a hard part to source, and not all the movie packs were the same -- some were missing a part here or there. I'm seeing a lot of faucet covers on eBay but I'm also reading from a lot of folks on here getting burned buying what they think is the oval-ish shaped one and getting the cone one delivered. I'll look for a fridge jug or something like that. Thanks!

Can I get MEPD approved (not SWAT) without the faucet cover/stinger?

Perfect. Thanks. Will try to find that.

What do folks use for the 2" tube on the right side of the pack? I picked up a 10' section of 2" diameter PVC at Home Depot but the stuff is heavy! It's schedule 40 stuff. Any abundant alternatives? Thanks

Hello fellow troopers! I've just secured TD20290.com, ported my blog posts over to it, and then finished up the last couple posts taking it all the way to the end of the armor build. Posting a link to it here in case it is of help to anyone still building their armor or just looking into building armor: http://td20290.com/

Thanks Felix - No, no straps attaching the forearms to the biceps. I put high density foam in the forearms so wherever I pull them up to they'll stay rock solid. I just need to pull them up higher. I wondered about that so thanks for the feedback. The forearms seemed to get in the way of the hand plates so that explains it. Thanks!

Thanks everyone! Not sure what I'll do with my time now that it's done! I guess troop a lot! (my wife would say finally get work done around the house)

Hello all - I'd be interested in feedback from the dirty experts here on my pretty much finished-up TD. I don't have a pack yet. Will probably pull the trigger on that, hopefully in the near future. Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

Thanks Brian. Here to help if you have any questions. Terry's template makes it a manageable project!

Thanks Brian! Yeah I'm just trimming away on the appendages. Pretty much done with arms and legs. Getting to the ab/ back and will likely have questions. I'll pm you...

Thanks Seann! Assuming that's you in your signature it looks like you've got a nice T21 yourself. And yeah, these scratch gun builds are fun projects. Much more forgiving than the plastic for a TD!

Thanks Geoff! And yeah - reach out any time. Happy to provide perspective for how it worked for me.

Thanks Andrew! It was definitely a fun build. I asked my wife if I could carry it on our evening walk tonight. She said no :-)

Hello friends, I'm still slowly working on my TD. But got some momentum on the T21 so I finished that up first. A million thanks to those who posted their process and progress because I couldn't have done it without you. I used Terry's cutting template and Anthony's electronics and lots of ideas and tips from others on the boards. Here's the finished product: And here is the detailed build process in 4 parts: Part 1: http://blog.panzainteractive.com/?p=56 Part 2: http://blog.panzainteractive.com/?p=74 Part 3: http://blog.panzainteractive.com/?p=114 Part 4: http://blog.panzainteractive.com/?p=136 Hopefully this documentation can be of help to anyone coming after me!

Thanks. I actually ended up sending MTK my money a couple weeks ago. I assume the box will be here soon. I'm 5'9" and 160 lbs so I figured MTK is the way to go.
