Boba Fett Helmet Blueprints/Templates

Question on the inner layers (the one with the A and B letters): Is there any overlap in the front or back on this piece? I've cut these pieces out and they seem to be a bit longer than the circumference of the lid. Anyone have any hints or did I mess up the scale when printing? Thanks!

Kripps - What kind of glue are you using to bond the sintra? I think there is special glue that fuses the plastic together but I haven't found that yet.

Also did you use WOF's inner template or the layer the outer. I wasn't sure why there was a specific layer for the inner layer, when only the back is seen. It looks like this inner layer would get in the way of the cheek pieces that curve into the helmet, maybe not. I need to get started on this - I'll probably answer my own questions.:lol:

I'm using Cyanoacrylate (super glue) for the initial "tack" if you will, PVC cement for larger pieces, and Plastic weld for re-enforcement. Lots of fumes.
I used the outer layer template exclusively.........It just seemed to make sense the way I'm putting this one together.

I finished my keyslots and the left cheek. Still have a little shaping to do here and there / spot putty etc, but it's coming along nicely.
Alan is the man.:thumbsup:

Holly crap! I have not looked at this thread at all till now, freaking amazing. I could never do that, you guys have some serious skills.
 
Sorry I have had the chance to reply, we are in the process of adopting a little boy and I’ve haven’t had the time to keep up with the board.

Both the inner and outer surfaces have a short over lap tab. It is at the back of the helmet, there is a second vertical line on the pattern that represents the actual size that way the pattern can be trimmed as needed to adjust for variations in printing and material thicknesses.

Also I haven't had the chance to do any updates on the dome and with the new addition it may be a while.

Great work Kripps, that is looking great!!! Thank for the pics.

Sorry, I've been too busy for the past month to even look at the helmet drawings. Hopefully when things settle down I'll be able to get back to them.

This is awesome, WOF! Great work! I'm planning to scratchbuild a bucket pretty soon. Any chance you could re-upload those templates, as the link doesn't seem to work for me.
 
I don't know what the issue is, but please send me a PM with your e-mail and I'll send them to you until I can get them back online.

P.S. This goes for any of my templates. Please just send me a PM with your e-mail and I will forward the templates to you.
