JediChewie Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Hello all. So I'm around 70% complete with my SC build for my wife. So far so good. Just started tackling the helmet. I've glued together the top and back of the helmet. Soon I'll attach the face/visor to it.  And then I find these parts packed with the helmet bolts...anyone know what they're for? ' alt=''> Quote
SulacoBoy Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Those are used to hold the visor in place. one strip on top, one left and right. And the U shaped at the bottom. The screw is used to hold the snout greeble in place if you choose to drill into it. Hope that helps. At least that's what I think. hahah Quote
JediChewie Posted March 10, 2015 Author Posted March 10, 2015 Oh you mean the lens. I see now. Thank you. I was getting ready to glue the visor and face together and thought those pieces were involved somehow. Although I couldn't imagine how. 1 Quote
StudioCreations Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Below is a diagram of the lens tabs and screw placement. The Left and Right tabs can be placed higher if you prefer them to be more centered. I recommend clamping the tabs down with metal spring clamps as the ABS-plastic glue dries. 1 Quote
jameserec Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 LOL I assembled mine without these parts. Those tabs would have made it much easier to put the visor in. Live and learn. Quote
elderpresto Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 this just helped me out a lot. I was trying to figure out what the small plastic bits were for! Quote
