My boots make noise now when I step.





















Accent paint and clear finished.






Mk 45 Suit glaze, prime, sand...





Voice command Iron Man Cosplay Armor!




My Mk 45 boots are made from a pair of skate shoes, 3D printed shells, and the transplanted sound effects from some robot slippers.





The repulsor knows when it has been lifted and flipped. It makes appropriate sound effects for each.







Mk 45 calves in halves. Your foot has to pass through them so consider cutting them vertically. They are held closed by tape here. Later that is replaced by my custom rare earth magnet mounts.






Stealth mode disables the light effects. Remember, my suit has no power switches.
This is a good place to park. Tomorrow we’ll build something new.



Mk 45 thighs were too large for our small printers so we added an E-12. Again, mine were magnetized to my suit. The magnets were the large ring magnets from car transmissions. They are nested in pockets within my under suit. Not an ideal design.








Making my first harness was difficult with no guidance. I’ve mentioned the custom H harness and the backpack setups, they are better. This is just shared for historic reference.
