Is there any chance some of the experts here can find the time to put up some tutorials ?
Ive looked but cant really find too much information on the following.
How the skirt is actually attached; pics and info would be good.
How the ribbing is attached to the undersuit[/u]
How the Cooper gloves are actually worked into the cylon gloves[/u]
Any info or pointers to links would be greatly appreciated.

I second that - that would be great.
blaster master, where did you get your Cooper gloves at?

Got gloves & skirt from a member here, Guido I think his name is, from Germany.
I think he had 4 pairs of gloves and the skirt advertised in the junkyard.

Excellent tutorial and video, thanks very much.
I eagerly await a glove and piping tutorial.
I know the undersuit is going to be difficult but I hope to pass the material off to a seamstress and find some way to attach each piece of piping to the completed suit. I think I ended up with neoprene cord for the piping. Is this a realistic idea or should the piping be attached before the suit is completed?
Im totally in the dark here

Check in the photo gallery in the Cylon section of the folders, and you can see a few photos of the gloves. Sorry I don't have a pair of gloves I can do a video on, but the photos do tell all. If you find the photo just link the image into this thread.

My gloves seem to be a bit different to those Ive seen here.
Mine dont have the padding on top of the wrist section where it looks like they get cut. Not to worry, at least they are the same in every other way.
One other thing, I notice in the pics of the skirt that the piping seems to be a hollow plastic tube. I bought a neoprene rubber piping which although solid is light weight.
What is the best way to attach the piping, even though mine is solid Im sure I can use the same method as if it was hollow tubing.

GoldCylon- could you post one more good photo of the screen used skirting - just a close up of a small section. I wanted to see how the mesh/mail is ... I don't think it is technically a mail - but a mesh. THANKS!
