Glad you're back Kevin.

I've only been on this board for a little over a year and have only received my Deployed status very recently. But during my time here I have always felt welcomed and I can feel a sense of brotherhood between members. I've learned so much about Sandtroopers and costuming in general since being here. I totally agree with your feelings Seth and I don't see any of this negative vibe that you described. I think older members may think they are being pushed out when new ideas and new members contribute to the group. Some people fear change and fear a change in leadership. I think we should encourage change if it is for the better, not for the sake of change. I can't comment if we are better than the EZBoard days or even the Yahoo Groups days, but I think this group is in pretty good shape and I'm proud to be a part of it.

I'm jealous

Looking good.

I plan on going.

I did my weathering following this technique and I love the way it turned out.

Looking great so far!

Looks awesome!

Armor looks great! Wonderful to see new recruits being added to the ranks almost everyday.

Stay safe and God bless!

Very awesome! How are you going to do the rest of your kid's halloween costume?

Thanks for the update boss!

Any news?

Thanks Chris

How do you remove the old rivets? Where can you purchase new rivets?

Thanks Seth, what color?

I've read on here that the plastic ribbed shoulder straps where not used on TDs. What are y'all using? Nylon webbing/straps, canvas, or something else?

Any update?

Yeah I just made some this past weekend. Some of the guys in my Garrison came up with a template in Photoshop and converted to Word and I just picked up some of the Avery business cards templates and printed them out and "cracked" them apart. A pack of sheets was about $16 for 160 cards. The turned out great.

Any update you can give us Bill?

Found this on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...Y_BIN_Stores_IT Anyone have one of these?

Bill are you still on track with these? I'm just getting excited about finally getting my BFG. Have an estimate of when they will be ready? Thanks,

Bill. I'd like to be on the list.

Just checked and I still don't have access.

I also need access to the 501st section. Thanks,
