I know... I take forever to post new content.
I have an excuse.
I'm currently working seven days a week in a push to drop the hammer on some student debt.
Worry not, though... I'm reducing it to six days... when work starts interfering with my capacity to hit the gym, I start getting cranky.
Gotta keep perspective!
(Yes, yes... I know I was injured... shush! LOL )
In terms of the armor, my work schedule has interfered with THAT, too... but fear not, True Believers! I may have stumbled upon something that could simultaneously solve my surfacing issues *and* my joint material issues...
... I just need to talk to some plastics experts in regards to adhesives and painting options...
The BAD news... is that the armor isn't going to be ready for Hallowe'en... it's a bit of a low-expectation year this year anyway...
So I'm re-evaluating.
The armor WILL be completed... but I've decided to de-emphasize the 'huge con-stress' style of smashing everything together and hoping the glue holds it long enough (I have NO idea how people can be happy with Plasti-Dip... =/ ) and focus more on assembling the pieces to last longer than the time it takes to put it on and then tear back out of it.
(Worry not Toronto Ironman... I'm leaning back towards metal again... but in a slightly different direction. =D )
I've been drawing up plans... and I'm starting with the feet.
Side-benefit... this will allow me to take more pictures. =)
