Gauntlet blueprints

[klinjo]

Just wondering if your any closer to uploading the downloadable template version for the guantlets

 

[Mojo Fett]

Hey guys.... Phew! just got in from a small trip away with family.
DB- Yeah I scored the upper side (not parallel) lines to form the curve, but that section is the inner section of the two? Klinjo- Sorry for the delay, as I said I just got back from a trip away? I will get them on the thread asap once I have run them passed the 'Master' Alan..

Once MOJO-Fett has completed his prototypes, I was planning to create a set of PDF files for the gauntlet templates one for standard 8.5X11 paper and one for A4 paper. With PDFs there is no fussing with scaling factors, you just print it and then the fun really begins.

Stay tuned.

Wizard, you are a GOD when it comes to templates!!

I've just finished a mockup of the helmet and chest pieces and they look great!

 

[Mojo Fett]

Sorry guys... Have sent some final versions to the lay flat patterns to Alan and await final confirmation... I will try and post current pics later, failing that, tomoro morning?
Sorry for he delay.

Soz.. forgot to ask? CWP do have any updates on our gauntlets buddy? be good to see your progress..

 

[Mojo Fett]

Ok.. things got a little slow this end what with hols and lack of materials? but here are some progress shots of the build.
Please ignore the 'tape' as these were used for locating parts etc before I finally fit. Next will come the interesting part of moulding then see if a full set can be made from them....

The lower clam shells go together like a dream (as does most really) huge thanks go to Alan for his drawings/blueprints that brought these to life... :cheers

Please pass on any comments 'before I go too far' to rectify any issues...

sorry Mojo, don't see this before....today I' ll continue with this...
do you or Alan have the templates of the lower clams shells, and there is some update with the main blueprints?
I'm having some problems with the PVC thickness, cause it's very dificult to adapt it (need a thin pvc for the small parts)...
I think that maybe the best way to work them in PVC would be to first make the big parts ( upper and lower clams shells) and then make in other pvc the small parts....
any help will be aprecited....
thnx so much!

Hello,

The templates are nearly ready for posting they still need a few more tweaks here and there. Hopefully maybe later this weekend if I manage to find a few spare moments.

I don't have the lower clam shells as a seperate file, but they will be included in the final version.

Ummm...have I just missed it somewhere in this thread or are the templates available now? If someone has them could you PM or email them to me? I've been chomping at the bit for these for a long time and can't wait to get started!!

 

[drokkul]

PLease disregard previous post as apparently WoF was answering that question while I was typing it in!

CWP.. Templates are almost ready to post by Alan, as stated just a few tweaks here and there? What probs you having? shoot me a PM and I'll answer any questions you have regarding the build up of the smaller parts? needless to say, the final templates make it soooo easy to make. keep us posted of your build?

Hi, Mojo, the problem that I have is that the pvc (the ticker one I have at home) make very dificult to work the small parts of the gauntlets...why? because is VERY tick, and modify all the sizes...so, I will save it to make the clam shells, and get some less ticker to make the rest...
as I say, I'll wait for the final templates and make first the clam shells with them...:love
THANKS SO MUCH, MOJO, and ALAN...
