Somebody fix that please.

Very nice! I found a pair like that also, I don't care for the fingernail things but I rolled with them just the same. Accuracy wins.

I am back! After two weeks of moving and the like I have re-connected. Whew! The cable guy came out today and hooked everything up so I have TV and internets once more. Looks like I have lots of catching up to do! I'll have to post up some pics of the man-cave once I get it a little more organized, its nice to be back!

The kind you shouldn't bother buying.

As a pointless aside, the pic of the Move Along being held by Brandon reminded me that the helmet lives less than 60 miles to the south of me, and had been touched and worn by my friend Clark, who I hate.

Here I am in my 30 minutes of internet time today! The original decision was not reached lightly, both Mike & I had our reservations about how to react. In the end, our decision helped this forum grow yet again. The reaction of the members reinforced doubts that we had about the way we handled the situation. To turn a blind eye to such a thing would only condone illicit behavior, reacting with an appropriate punishment turned out to be overkill. In the end, we have a very defined idea of what will be acted upon on this forum. That is something we have never had before, and clearly needed for this situation. I will echo Mike's statements in regard to recasting, and have little if nothing to add. We discussed this at length and I see no further need for ping-ponging the pros and cons about. Its an issue that will likely never see a clear resolution, or at least that is my doubt. Hopefully if nothing else this will be a valuable lesson and give everyone something to help them along their path.

Whoo, now that is a compliment! I made those The pack was made from the kit the Mike, Charlie & myself worked on. I'll be out of comm for a week with moving but drop me a line if you want a set & I'll get in touch with you when I'm re-connected.

Wow, party at my place! I thought I would sneak in real quick. I'm about to hit the rack for some sleep, the main move it tomorrow. Ugh! Looks like it will be a bit until I am re-connected so I'll see you guys in a week or so.

Wow, anyone who can make it please do! If only I could get to CA for it.

Nice!

I am in the process of moving, big move is this Sunday although I've been ferrying things to the new house after work for a few days now. Communication from me will be spotty, as I'll be up to my ears with stuff. Thankfully I have a sweet workroom to build stuff in, I can't wait to be able to use it. If anyone has anything urgent board-wise just hit up the XO See ya'll next week! (I should be checking email over the next couple days, but will probably be unplugged for the better part of next week)

I'm still doing complete packs, here and there.

Chuck handles the production of patches, etc. for the detachment. Items are restricted to 501st members, and are usually done in short runs & at cost.

Don't bother with sanding. Your armor should be shiny underneath the dirt. Sanding it will cause the paint to hang up too much, and I would imagine it would make the process more difficult.

After some thought I'd have to question the point of the whole thing. We all talk about our experiences anyway and I think it will wind up more of a place to get leads rather than reviews, and like WC said, it might just degenerate into flaming as some threads have in the past. Since only a handful of people make "legit" stuff its best to stick with them and their established rep, instead of "some dude" who can cut you some sort of too-good-to-be-true deal that winds up being some piece o' crap. Ultimately if you see something and want to know the skinny; post it to the board and ask for opinions.

Feel free to start a thread when you've got something started, knowing how quick you work that shouldn't be too long.

Clicking it will show what groups you belong to & who else is in it. It is just a permissions group, not much of interest really. There are only a couple, one for 501st and one for staff. Once I get the 501st one updated you will see that listing when you click on it.

Since the deployment guide has moved closer to screen accurate I would say no. No blaster burns, etc. were seen in the film. There are some troopers displayed in the gallery that have them, as we don't remove old pictures when the regs change. I know this practice has led to confusion in the past but as deployment evolves I don't feel like we should remove troops that were "sent out" under previous versions of deployment.

Excellent work all around!

You win a toaster! Seriously though, congrats!

Looking good trooper

Oh wow! I need to find more stuff of mine to sell off, like organs. Excellent work, I hope to add one to my collection one day.

Try office supply stores, look for clear plastic mail tubes. The USPS ones are cardboard.

You can usually find 2.5" mailing tubes in the states. A little shy of the 68mm/2.67" but perhaps easier to come across.

Once I get them rolling I might have to send one his way.
