Having seen what I saw and now hearing the problems you've faced, let me suggest something and you can respond with why you're not trying it:<BR/><BR/> Make a scale drawing of your helmet design from the left, right, top, bottom and back. Decide beforehand what it's proportions will be and then make them out of foam. Don't make a hole for your head though. Next, cut the foam in half down the center and use the two pieces as a mold for two shell halves, which you can then join together. I do not know the best material to use for the shell, it depends what kind of strength you are looking for. Fiberglass, plastic, and ceramic would all be a possible shell material. There are machines that will make a plastic shell around an object by sucking the air out of the space between a melted sheet and the object, like the packaging for kids toys- it's clear and not very strong. The advantage to this method is you can make as many as you want to with your original mold. You would have to make some kind of inner structure to give it strenght and to place it comfortably on the head. Anyway, something for you to think about. I'm sure eventually all of your heard work will pay off.Evanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525904826158176537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6159272974991157342.post-59102701849282640122008-11-25T12:07:00.000-08:002008-11-25T12:07:00.000-08:00Awesome man!
