lol yeah putting on full gear is an ordered process. You miss a layer and... shit.

What's your box's main material? Wood? If so, what kind?

Here's my shooters. I know, they're ginormous, and have a big random box behind it. The fan runs on airsoft batteries so I needed a place to put them...

I notice some people have trouble with what to make the harness material.
Full on leather blanks everywhere would be expensive.
So what I did was use brown foam with shoe polish and varnish (I'm guessing this is well known), made the harness (only leg part for me), and backed it with nylon strapping.
My group found a huge, huge sack of nothing but nylon strapping for $1 at a Goodwill, so my leg harnesses were dirt cheap. Don't know how much nylon webbing is per foot/yard, but just thought I'd share how I did mines which imo is economical and decent looking...
