Flightsuit Progress: 1

Since this is the board for props, I figured I'd post the progress on my first try at propping. I bought most of what I need for my flightsuit yesterday. The flightsuit itself (it'll be in Friday), I ordered the logo patch today (should be in early next week), the hose, the hose plugs, material to make the pouches, the khaki 3 hole pistol belt, the kneepads, and dye for the knee pads. I had the boots and gloves and a bunch of circuit boards and wires that I'm going to build the front pouch out of. The design on the circuit board looks different from the first to the second movie, so I thought it wouldn't matter if I just put one together. All I need to get now is the embroidered name tag and I should be set. What do you guys think? Anything that I might have forgotten about? I'll keep you guys posted on how it's going.

Lets see….You forgot your Radio perhaps???? You can order it for $17 bucks from Bob Merrit, $5 extra for the leather holster. Link:

What did you use for the hose plugs?

For the plugs I used a 3/4“ Female adaptor. It was made of Khaki plastic. and I put a 1/2” insert plug in it. It was grey and looked right. The hose fits right over the insert plug and perfectly inside of the adaptor. If I go up there this week I'll find out exactly what I used..
