I had to rush home from work because I was so pumped about starting the second phase of this project!
The initial strapping job was almost a complete success. The shoulders need an additional strap running from the front torso to back torso to help keep both shoulders closer to the body.
I need to add the "belt" strap around the waist as well.
I'm not really happy with the boots. I have some other ideas for them but I'll get to that later.
Everything feels fine. The Lycra suit makes the parts slip around a bit so I need to look for a solution to that.
The magnets on the lower back plate are a bit weak so I'll strip those out and install parachute clasps.
Megan seemed pretty happy with the progress so far
That's about it for the night. The next time you see this suit it should be on it's way to being painted. Goodbye light gray..
