Oh boy! I kind-of got so involved in the build process that I forgot to post updates to my progress. So here goes… So we had 2 Armor Parties at Walt’s shop. That’s the absolute best place to learn about the TK construction. I mean Walt is like the master of the Stormtrooper! What better place is there than where the kit was born? Many thanks to Walt for giving up his time and his shop just to help us. I learned a lot real quick! Went home and continued to do trimming and rough fitting legs and arms. Glueing process took several days of patience and anticipation. But waiting was worth it. Parts started fitting pretty nicely. First test fitting of nearly completed kit. I had to make a few more adjustments. My shoulder bells were sitting out a bit too far. And my thighs were not quite where they should be. But all-in-all not a bad fit. Also, my black shirt had grey stitching showing at the arm joints. Time to go find a new fitted athletic shirt.

Great troop everybody!!! can’t wait to see the pictures and video! Great job!

If anyone is going that already has a completed TK, please bring your gear if you can. I would like to see examples for reference to certain techniques that you have used. Thanks!

I’m in! I need to get my TK together! Can’t wait!!!

Thanks Ezra for all of your hard work. You keep us up and running! Cool upgrades too! Great job!

Welcome to the Garrison! Looking forward to meeting you and trooping together!

I have joined. Not quite sure I understand the purpose. Lol but I’m cool now, at least.

Welcome to the garrison!

Lol, no worries my friend. Vader never lets Boba have any disintegration fun! But it’s all good in tha hood. ? And thanks! Your Vader costume is perfectly intimidating and deserves the highest respect. I love the voice effect too! Great job all around bro!

Thanks brother! That means a lot to me. great to finally meet you. And welcome back to the garrison! Your Kylo is amazing too!

Approved as of 1/28/23 Marking this as completed. Thanks for following!

We can do the 18th for bowling. Let me know where.

I would really appreciate that! It would be so very helpful! Can’t wait. I usually have weekends off. If you need another pair of hands to help clear up some space let me know. Thanks man!

Lol, if you have pictures please do share!

Weekends are best for us. Depends on where it is too.

That’s an awesome decision! If you are looking for the best Stormtrooper kits available, you need to only look within our very own Garrison. Walter is the guy you want. He owns Walt’s Trooper Factory right here in CT. He has a Facebook page called - WTF:Walt’s Trooper Factory. If you are on Facebook, look it up! Or you can contact him here @rottie, but I’m not sure how often he visits this website. He has provided some of the trooper armor seen in the Mandalorian used by the actors of that show. He s the guy you want to get your kit from. That’s where my kit came from too. Good luck brother! Let me know if you have any trouble contacting him. There has been a resurgence of people, in our garrison, that have recently started making their own TK’s. We will soon have a good strong force of new troopers added to our current roster! It will be great to have you as one also!

Thanks!!! Now I need to start working on the armor. I need to see someone’s complete set up so I can see how the straps are attached. I hope we can have an armor party soon!

Helmet is done. Now I need to focus on the armor. Hopefully we’ll have an armor party soon. I have lots of questions.

Thanks! What’s keeping you? Let’s go here, we gotta make an entrance in force!

Legs are trimmed now too!

Rough trimmed the mid, top and arms parts. Still have to trim the legs, knees and belt boxes etc. That’s enough for today, tho.
