I give respect to everyone especially new members in the group.. But if you go out there and criticize people's armor and their work, it really burns me up.. It's really hard work and money invested in a project like this.. What we are getting at and responding to new members is to show respect. Especially the one's who actually own and built a suit.. My suit may not be the best out there, but I'm proud to say I build it (minus helmet).. I am willing to share my information for those who want to learn how, but to come on here to say things suck or it looks wrong.. Well, go out and try it yourself.. It's harder then it looks.. And Ecose, your welcome for sticking up to you. I remember from the past and we were both building at the same time. Hey we came far and now you completed it.. Like you, I will be building another one, now that I can spend time on it and not stress over like the under a month project... Good Luck on the new project!
