Metal Helmet?

Has a helmet cast in aluminum or such ever been attempted before?

Search up Hand-Schaub & you will see that he cast up some aluminum helmets. I had a Jango one in my posession for awhile & the thing was thick! His costume consists of all cast aluminum pieces & is still one of the best Jangos out there.

Ditto....HS's were the absolute BEST metal helmets ever produced! Too bad I didn't snag one when I had the chance.

How much were they?

how did he do that? Did he use liquid aluminum? must have been heavy too.

Thianks for the nods.
Yes, My whole suit is cast aluminum. Here are a few links to answer most questions...

I do plan on casting a few more. Now there may be eough interest to get a full pour done which is usually the reason I did not produce too many of these. I'm looking at a several month timeline though (2+)
prices of metal are way up though. Possible price range is $600 (give or take $50)

thanks,

Wow, that is amazing. Why have I not seen this before?
