Ord Mantell's ESB build

did you ever manage to find the vintage Veroboard? i know it was identified but has anyone found one online
sorry I missed this when it was posted. I did not find any of the old 10x25 hole stripboard, but I do know someone who has one. I don't know where he found it, but it was a long time ago.
 
Many of you might already be aware, but there is a new flak vest maker in town. Eli Jinn started making his own vests a while back, and spicy fett was the first to see the potential of his work and gave him some help to improve on it. I sent Eli my own sourced material recently and I'm happy to say the vest I got back is much closer to the real thing than anything I've seen before. He's working on a second one for me based on some notes and hopefully that'll serve as my final ESB vest. It features some details specific to the ESB/ROTJ/on-screen-hero vest not seen on any fan-made vest before.

Eli is obviously extremely talented.

I'm in the middle of painting my PP2 helmet but I plan to get the holes into the new vest and onto the display as soon as it arrives. This test one will go on my RotJ display.
