Running with Bolt's 'glue the foam pieces together' method for making the drop boxes, except using ABS sheet I'll wrap with material. Might be handy for carrying stuff in too.
Also decided to sew the cummerbund pouches. The issue is the Level 2 CRL requirements have most of the pouches at 10cm (4") wide, plus the 7" wide spine pouches. Totaling a bare minimum of 98 cm required around the cummerbund. To include the gap at the front, even with the suit and cummerbund taking up extra circumference, I have nowhere near that amount of real-estate to use. So I'm going to run with the old reference dimensions of 8cm wide pouches, which may still only barely fit. CRLs also say "... proportional to the wearer in scale, fit and size".
Also found a pretty cool greeblie addition to fill some space on the tank topper (RGB LED).
