I almost bought one of those pre-built jobs from the shop across the pond in England, but found the FISD site before pulling the trigger. I am so glad I did. I am very happy with ...
Well I have not read the entire thread but I do wish to lose some weight and size. I am a TK and could benefit from this to decrease the gap between the ab and kidney plate. So I have also sponsered at weight lose challenge at work - where 20 of us are going to see who can lose the largest % in 15 w...

I will see if a bit more padding in the top will help but the eyes line up perfectly now. I was just wondering if I were to open the hole a little it might ...
Hello all: I am building a RT-Mod TK currently. As I am coming to the end the excitement grows. My question: Is it common to have very limited helmet movement?
