I heard back from James today. He is making another set of hands with the correct size fingers, both ears for my helmet ( even though I only needed the right one) a voice changer ( even though i will likely not use it) and the missing pannel that goes on the back. He is supposed to ship it out Friday. I give him credit for always answering/replying to every email I have sent up to this point.
Once I get my new harnes built I am thinking about removing the abs/lower back from the chest and back, making it into a sub assembly with suspenders I believe this will offer the suit more flexibility.
If anybody can recomend a good adhesive to bond the straps to the abs and fiberglass pannels, i am all ears. Hot glue is okay but it doesnt seem to hold up very well.
I have removed all velcro from the legs and used a better quality velcro and adhered it to the suit using 3m double sided automotive grade tape ( same stuff that holds emblems and trim on cars and trucks) hopefully it works better than the hot glue/velcro combo it comes with.
That is the progress on my suit up to this point. I still need to add rivets and reinforce a few key areas.
