Hi this is my first post here, I have been looking around (ebay mostly) for a set of mandalorian armor.
This is my question, what are your views on the Sintra kits that are available? I have read that aluminum can be used also although it is a lot harder to work with.
thanks in advance

Hmmm well i'll tell ya what i know newkid. First of all Sintra is a good way to go. As for the aluminum armor well its quite expensive to get the aluminum and yes it is hard to work with. I'll share with ya what i'm doing. I used a bucket about 7 or 5 to make most of my armor peices. I got the tamplates from this forums home page: ( www.mandalorianwarriors.com ) Then i trace them onto cardboard then i used the peices to trace onto the buckets after that i cut them out thanks to the help of my father i got it out quick. After i had the peices Walla / viola! I had my armor but i used this method the bucket i used was made of sintra so i got sintra without spending a dime or penny. After that i had my armor peices. Now aluminum if ya want that you'll have to get money to get the aluminum and alot of it. But i'm just going to go with the sintra. Here is my idea for my armor below: Sintra: this is what i'll make my armor out of. Aluminum: Upgrade! This is what i have to offer as help hope it helps. ;D
