flashcove Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 The friend who built my KS helmet used hot glue to glue the bolt covers and nose piece on. Don't. At troops, I've lost both bolt covers, and my snout. Luckily, all were found by friends during the troop, though my snout was found after our skit at MechaCon by an audience member, and, oddly enough, given to the guy who had put it on with hot glue. That said, I appreciate his work in assembling helmet. I've reattached all pieces with thick superglue at troops where they were lost with no problem. By the by, I live in New Orleans, where you can fry bacon on a car hood on an August afternoon. Rice will work too, because it's so humid! Quote
Griffin-X Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Thanks for the heads up! BTW...We got some temps in the 105-s here in Texas. Quote
BananoPower22 Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 However, you could use it for holding up the piece... for example, you cover the whole area with e6000 and add a little bit of hot glue so it holds up in place until the e6000 fully cures. Quote
