haha thanks .. I have quite a few Defence friends/families down in Canberra but yes if I'm ever there I shall swing by for a tour of the observatory and you can 'put on the suit'.Originally posted by Barry View PostThat's really sweet Anna.

Abs, ribs, lumbar and spine templates ready to trace onto aluminium.
Templates traced out onto 3mm aluminium.
Spine done in aluminium and pre-polished.

1. Abs sections cut from 3mm aluminium.
2. Shaping one of the overlapping aluminium plates at the back of the helmet around to the ears.
3. Earpiece showing folded tabs to be ground and sanded smooth. I found that if I tried to simply bend the tabs to 90 degrees, they would invariably fatigue and crack or even snap off. Fix? Clamp it between two pieces of thick steel and beat it over with a hammer and flat punch.
4. Got a bit of work done today.

Iron Man suit slowly progressing. Managed to get all the old paint off this second-hand aluminium. This is the armour at the lower back and around waist to meet up with the abdominal plates.

Managed to get all the old powder-coating off the aluminium abdominal armour plates today. Next - a quick polish and start shaping and joining.
