SC Helmet Building Tutorial?

Hi guys, I am working on an SC kit with my wife and we are not sure how to proceed with the helmet. There were instructions included for everything else in the kit.

 

It's a four piece kit. Can someone recommend a good thread to follow?

 

I'm not sure how the cap is secured to the back. Is the visor to be attached to the mask or is the bolt the only thing that secures them together? How is the chin strap attached?

 

Thanks and sorry for all the noob questions!

No apologies necessary remember we were all new at this once! There are a couple of routes you can go here. First thing I can tell you is that the faceplate is attached to the visor and not the helmet halves. The bolts will go through the visor to attach to the main helmet assembly. In this way the visor/faceplate can be raised up to expose your face.

 

Chef has a good tutorial here: http://kgbairsoft.com/wordpress/?page_id=122. It's not an SC but close enough to help you work out the assembly. Another idea would be to shoot Jeff at SC an email and see if he has instructions he can email to you. A third is to look through the armory on the helmets and research the various builds. Most of the men and women here will create pretty thorough build threads and there is lots to glean for them. Hope this helps some and look forward to seeing you complete that build.

Thanks for the quick reply. My issue is that every build thread I've gone through either the helmet was already assembled or it just gets posted fully assembled. The construction of the SC helmet is different from the link you shared - I had already come across it. The back and the cap are separate with SC, so I'm not sure if I should just E6000 the ridge. Seems like it might not be the most solid way of doing it.

 

I will try e-mailing to see if I can get some instructions!

"Facepalm" that's right! I forgot that the SC lid had a cap piece. Sorry about that. Hopefully Jeff can give you some good direction there. He's really good with customer service. I've been using a plastic expoxy I got at HD for my son's helmet and it's pretty tough. That might be an option for you if you want something a bit stronger.
