3D model description

This is meant to help you in trimming the "donut" caps for your Tie Pilot chest box. There are 2 pieces...

The "holder" and the "Ring/Riser".

I used painter's tape to protect my parts from scratching on the outside.

Simply place your chestbox cap (Donut) into the holder and carefully use a utility knife to cut around the top. Once it is scored deeply, you can pop off the excess.

To cut the hole in the cap, just drop the ring into the holder after you have inserted the cap and run your knife repeatedly around. (this will take several passes) but I found it easier than trying to freehand it.

For the cap that has the Gear greeblie, I wanted something a bit shorter in depth. so I dropped the Riser Ring into the holder before adding the cap and cut around the outside as before with a utility knife.

It is a rough model but it served my needs. I was using this with a Walt's Trooper Factory Tie Pilot kit. Feel free to remix it if you like of course.

I also made it a habit of wearing cut resistant gloves so I didn't slice myself if I missed. The flat edges on the holder made it easier for me to have it on it's side so I was always cutting down.
