    This question, and Jeff's answer, reminded me of a Tested video I watched not too long ago. Its a great watch regardless, but when Adam is making the big boxes on Chewie's bandolier, the method to make them is very similar to how Jeff described making the belt boxes for an Officer. Obviously the dimensions of the boxes will be different (like Jeff said, get the measurements from the CRL), but the method to make them I think would be the same or close to it

     

    Start at 5:20 ish.

     

     

    I feel like every time this question is asked either you or I refer someone to this video

  2. I was going to post the same video link!

    Good advice.

    Interesting - I have the same Belt Boxes but mine have never popped off of my belt. A strap or loop does sound like a good way to make sure though that those suckers stay on for sure.


    Unfortunately I think it's my gut that was pushing them off every time I bend over. I'm sure the most permanent solution would just be to get in better shape, but I don't want to go crazy LOL

  4. Hi all...

    Went out on my first troop today and noticed something that I hadn't realized just posing for my 501st submission around my house

     

    My belt boxes kept popping off my belt every time I bent over.

     

    I have belt boxes from philo props pictured below. They are amazingly well made but I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for securing them to the belt so they don't fall off while trooping? I figure if anyone knows, it's you guys and gals.

     

    Thanks

  5. Interesting. He has a black hat too. Do we see his trousers? I wonder if there is enough to make a new CRL.

    He seems to have a gray 451 tunic.


    The trousers appear to be the same grey. From this shot it's not clear if they are jodhpurs or not. But that gives me an excuse to watch ANH again.

    Yeah right... like i need an excuse

  6. Fortuitous timing - 3000 word dissertation handed in last night, clears the deck for Star Wars movie marathon after work! :-P And can now get back to reading 'Thrawn'.

     

    Are 'The Clone Wars' and 'Rebels' worth a look?


    Definitely. And there is a chance TCW is getting removed May 7th. So watch what you can while you can!

  7. I was born in '85.  I'm not sure if I saw any of Star Wars on TV in my first ten years, but I distinctly remember being in a Blockbuster (that was a video rental chain for any younger members out there) with my dad when the '95 cassette box set came out.  He said...."I'm going to buy these for you, I really think you'll like them."  I remember not really caring, and I went off to pick out a video.  That night I put in "A New Hope"  by the time the escape pod launched, I was hooked.  Its now 22 years later, I have been to the midnight release of every movie since, made one of my own with my action figures, and am putting together a costume for the 501st..... I guess its fair to say my dad may have been right.
