so... Iv got so much from reading this forum, thought it's time for me to put back in, got my first fett lid today, don post 1997, going to do what I can to make it as good as I can, I have included the first lot of photos the before as it came and the second two are my efforts at trying to get it into a better shape, iv used a 1 inch aluminium strap, that you can get out of knee braces, bent it to shape and fit it in clamping as I go then using a large clamp backwards to spread it open at the base, I then used a hot air gun to slightly warm and soften the plastic to conform to the new shape I have given it, I'm going to leave it clamped over night and then use a resin to stick the brace into the helmet.
i would very much appreciate pointers and opinions as this is my first build, I'll get some more photos up as I go.
