This weekend started out exciting with a live Facebook unboxing and then all the PVC got an initial trim to pull off plastic burrs. After that, things slowed a bit with a chest cold and some Xbox time. By the end of the weekend, I've got some more things ordered (snaps and epoxy) and a much better understanding of where to start. 

Next Steps:

1. Decide on shirt top and purchase
2. Final trim and sand armor piece
3. Assemble gauntlets (need to buy a piano hinge to do that)
4. Prime armor
5. Print paper armor templates and determine layout/spacing
6. Install snaps to armor and clothing
7. Paint the armor

SO much work to do to get it done!
