Attaching Mandalorian Armour | Jango Fett Build

[@serennosquadcast8297]

Looks fantastic! Jango Fett is the coolest.

[@MrMoorkey]

Thanks for the video! Working through upgrading my 6+year old homebuild, and this is PERFECT!!!

[@jwtcosplay4507]

This looks like a really smart way to have done this. I plan on using this method on my new Batman cosplay

[@vikingmando438]

Awesome job! I've been trying to convince myself to go with snaps or magnets rather than velcro for the kit I'm working on.

[@BucketheadStudios]

The snaps were pretty easy in the end, just a lot of measuring and trying on to get the placement right

[@JohnFolsom]

Have you worked on your Jango lately? I would love to see more videos.

[@BucketheadStudios]

Not lately I'm afraid. I just moved house too, so am still setting up my work space 🙂

[@JohnFolsom]

@@BucketheadStudios Congrats on your move. I guess I'll have to finish my Jango without you. 😛

[@BucketheadStudios]

Good luck!

[@Jayneflakes]

That looks great, well done. That would look great on my motorcycle jacket!

[@Slayson77]

Great video! I'll use this to attach my Mando armor this week!

[@Finlay_1010]

Where did you get the leather jacket from?

[@BucketheadStudios]

Seller called Bobamaker (have their own website)

[@Finlay_1010]

@@BucketheadStudios thanks 👍

[@_Henners_]

Very cool. Can't wait to see the end result!

[@Santakillzz]

Any chance you have a pic or can follow up on the back plate? I was thinking of doing two snaps at the tops on the shoulder but wasnt sure past that were to put snaps.

[@BucketheadStudios]

Not done mine yet! Long overdue, but working on how it's going to interact with the jackpack harness underneath. Would probably do 8 or 10 all round, in the corners for sure

[@rileycook7686]

That looks so cool I cant wait to see the final finished thing

[@clayno.3802]

Wow that’s just amazing

[@gmf80]

Who would you recommend that does the Jango helmet with the dent?

[@BucketheadStudios]

I would say just get a regular polyurethane (resin) kit and put it in yourself. Use a heat gun to heat up that area then just push it in and hold till it cools (or run under water if you can) I imagine that's exactly how they did it for the movie

[@SKYMANUniverse]

Looks awesome!

[@d1specdrifter]

Great video mate. Keep up the great work.

[@BucketheadStudios]

Thank you! thanks for watching 🙌🏻

[@d1specdrifter]

@@BucketheadStudios big fan here in texas,usa.

[@drumandcompany]

Love this! How were you getting the snaps on the fabric there? I’m considering doing that for my boba Fett

[@BucketheadStudios]

Punch a hole, then hammer together the snap

[@InsidetheBoothTV]

Love it.. looking good

[@gilleshug2736]

Wow! Took you a beard of time ! ;) Love it! I'm nearly finishing Robb stark leather armor!

[@BucketheadStudios]

Ooo that's cool, need to learn more leather work

[@gilleshug2736]

@@BucketheadStudios I was really helped by a french channel that explained that with an old couch, a cutter and a fork you can do lots of thing! Now I love leather work!

[@JohnFolsom]

I just watched your latest video on attaching the armour. You made it look a lot easier then Cruzer's Tutorial. I've been worried about this part. As you know if you don't get the armour lined up correctly it doesn't look right. Not to mention poking holes in leather freaks me out a bit. The armour you bought looks great. I wish I knew about that maker before I ordered mine from Bobamaker. It's going to be sometime before I get my Flak vest and armor from him. Do you have a link to the buttons and tools you used to attach the buttons?

[@BucketheadStudios]

Thank you, yeah was definitely something I was concerned about, but it's not too hard, just a meticulous operation. My flak vest is from Bobamaker, you won't regret it, it's so nice! These are the snaps I used www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003X2ELQ6 these ones come with the setting tools

[@lifewitholliethegsp9203]

I am working on a Mandalorian costume

[@djayacedaking26]

Hmm do they ship to the US?

[@Wayneswerth]

BucketHead Studios, where did you get your flak vest? It looks amazing!

[@BucketheadStudios]

Bobamaker (has his own site) 👍🏻

[@boneheadgs350]

Would the techniques used for installing the snaps work for a cloth flak jacket?

[@BucketheadStudios]

Yes it would, as long as the armour isn't too heavy for the cloth it's made from (it may sag down too much)

[@mattcalloway6254]

How do you know exactly what distance from the edge your scores that you make with the calliper need to be? By that I mean how do you know that the distance between the two points on the calliper is the right distance to use?

[@BucketheadStudios]

No right or wrong, just following what others did before, and it totally worked for the snaps I was using. Just make sure your snaps fit/don't show

[@mattcalloway6254]

@@BucketheadStudios where did you get those bolt swashers?

[@hudryan6374]

awesome!

[@orsiniproductionstudios3042]

“bAcKwArDs mEaSuRiNg sYtEm cAlLeD iMpErIaL” okay, imperial.

[@jannechu5862]

I swear I will get jango fett suit for myself Someday😌

[@deanderdisdick7988]

Nice

[@allensanders5984]

I’ll buy it rn😂

Imperial system was created by the british.hahaha The imperial system of units, imperial system or imperial units is the system of units first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act 1824 and continued to be developed through a series of Weights and Measures Acts and amendments.

[@BucketheadStudios]

Haha I know! In fact we still use Imperial where I work 😄

[@d1specdrifter]

@@BucketheadStudios i love using both imperial and metric. Keeps the brain ready for anywhere in world.👍😁😁

[@stanmarymee4230]

What size and type of snaps did you use?
