Starting my first Mando today

[kalika]

Hey Lev'ika, any progress?

 

[Dynasty104]

blegh fiberglassed lungs hurt

 

[Aden Kyramud]

A'den: How much is "slightly?" a few seconds, or a few mins.

I mix between 10-20% over the stated ratios (more hardener, that is). so it dries faster.

*** dude... it's FIBERGLASS!!! u know... small shards of sharp crystaline material that you DON'T WANT IN YOUR LUNGS! I'd hate to see the microscopic damage done... the fumes are dangerous too btw... something to do with nerve damage...lol

Kal

Maybe the nerve damage will make the shard in the lungs not hurt. lol

Alright im back!

Last night i finally assembled the dome and today i attached it to my helmet :cheer

I whipped out the camera and got my little brother to assist me by posing with my bucket

I was hoping you guys could tell me if theres any mistakes or things i could change to make it better thanks

 

[Alpha 02]

[Alpha 02]

thanks Josh
I was just thinking they look good from the side but not quite right from the front :s

 

[Aden Kyramud]

Yeah, it looks really good!!! Just a bit of trimming to get it flush with the rest of the helmet...

 

[Alpha 02]

And another :wacko

 

[Alpha 02]

Sweet! ok i will do that. How much do u think i should take off?

 

[Aden Kyramud]

Just enough to get it even with the fangs and the earcaps...Take the front edge of the earcaps and trace a lind to the edge of the fang, and that is your cut line. :cheers

Btw, REALLY good looking dome!!! Great job on that!!!

 

[Alpha 02]

Thanks man that dome only took me like half an hour so im suprised it turned out so well

 

[Aden Kyramud]

Half an hour?!? wow...that part kills me...:wacko

So what's your plan of action now? bondoglass? fibreglass? I really cant wait to see this one finished! With such a good start it is gonna be great!!! :cheers

 

[Alpha 02]

[Aden Kyramud]

Are you just going to bondo the plain paper? or is it out of something different?

 

[Alpha 02]
