need help from som1 who's finished pep armor

[Xavier]

okay, so on my forearm pieces, the hole closest to my hand is small (just big enough for my hand)

and the other end is.. well.. HUGE

i know i didnt do anything wrong, but what should i do?

 

[Leadingspartan]

it is always like that i cut it about 3 inches away from the whole where the hands come out because it is easier to take your hands out if you dont you will rip it everytime you take it out.

 

[Xavier]

how do i attach it to my arm then if the part by the elbow is so wide?

 

[Leadingspartan]

foam or padding.

 

[Sigma LS]

Padding for sure.

Also use some sort of long sleeve shirt or something to see how much space that takes up before you do the padding.

 

[Elric]

I reccomend the "Great Stuff" Insulating Foam sealant. Spray it in and trim flush, then keep adding or trimming to fit your arms.

 

[Xavier]

can that stuff be carved down by a clay tool?

 

[Elric]

Yeah Its like a little heavier than styrofoam. Anything sharp will do the job.

 

[Xavier]

idk doesnt that stuff insulate pretty well? i dont wonna be way hot in my outfit
