hey Honus! I've never made a bucket before nor bought one and decided that, after confronting my budget, your cardboard bucket must be the way to go this halloween... so i started my own project =P
i've used only left over pizza boxes and tape that had been scattered about my room... and, so far, it doesn't look so bad...
my question for you is how did you calculate and design the template for the triangles that make up your dome? (sorry, geometry was never my forte)
and, what are you going to do about the visor? (i'm just a poor college student with only 23 cents to spend =P)
