Looking pretty good so far.

The belt box isn't required right now. Once the standards are updated I'm sure it will be but for the time being it's not required.

Understood, thank you Smile

If I manage to find one before submission, I will have one. I don't think I will delay submission for it, then. Smile

Progress ...

- Tighten miniflare holster on belt, and permanently affix miniflares -- COMPLETE
- Finish painting vest greeblies (COMPLETE) and attach to vest --Need to do
- Purchase / scavenge printer port looking greeblie and tack it on -- Need to do

Just to make sure I am looking at it correctly, the greeblie on the white cloth rectangle is a male 25 pin parallel connector?

All done ... EXCEPT

- Purchase / scavenge printer port looking greeblie and tack it on -- Need to do

I am in the IT industry. And between work and home I have not been able to find one parallel adapter / printer cable.

Soooooo clooooooose! I shall take a pass at a couple places tomorrow.

In the meantime, pictures of my finished helmet. Smile

Last piece/detail done ...

I am Done!

I will probably end up re-fitting that vest. I also note that being short, short waisted, and having curves makes the exact fit of this awkward. Placing the belt exactly how it is placed in the book reference photo puts the belt far far down my hips. And that makes things fit weird. But. That is how I did it for the submission photos. I may also pull up the chestbox slightly and shift things "up". I need to play with it to find the most comfortable fit.

Thank you

I really want to re-do that vest one day. I am not as happy with the fabric choice as I could be.
