MikeRadness Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Hi all. I am working on an 850 Armor Works helmet. So far so good. I’m at the “visor install” stage, and looking for any tips? What was provided was a raw sheet of welder lens. I know there will be cutting, heat-gunning and glueing. But have no experience with this. Looking for guidance, help, tips, whatever you got!

KOtrooper Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I'd make a paper template to get a rough cut out of your material. Try and hot glue it in.That said, a more accurate look is a curved motorcycle shield. I got a few off of eBay for $12.

MikeRadness Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 Thanks[mention=83276]KOTrooper[/mention]. I was starting with the welder shield. Cut to fit. Little heat gun to mold it. But gluing is not going well. Hot glue is absolutely NOT holding. Maybe I’m using the wrong kind?I may eventually go with a different visor. But for now this is all I have.

KOtrooper Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Is the visor pulling away because it's too strong? If not you could try some gaffers tape and/or e6000. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
