For the knees I JB welded buckles onto the back then glued padding on top.

It wasn't mentioned in yesterday's post, but straps were added to the back of the shins. Today padding was added. Here are the boot, shin, and knees together.

For the belt a velcro strap was made to tightly secure the belt above my hip. Loops with clips were attached to the belt. The pouches have loops with buttons and can be clipped into place.

The buckles inside the thighs were JB welded too high, so the clips were attached with copper wire and JB weld to make a shorter connection point.

Padding was added to the thighs, decorative straps were added to the thighs, and electrical tape was added to the boots. Here is my first full suit up for this armor.
