Grantd1* Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Hey you guys at Telford? If the Bolton Asda falls through (just mem signed up at the moment) I'll be there too - great to see you guys. You could bring your bucket so I can look over your progress. Anyway - back on target - what problems are you having with the faceplate? I might be able to help 1 Quote
Jules Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Yeah mate, we re going. I think I ve sorted the faceplate now Grant. I had to apply heat so it would line up thats all. Got all next week off (half term) so should be all finished by Friday (armour too!) I just got a few bits to do...bum flap and thigh patches and tank topper when I get one. Waiting for my bund, vest and pistol. Its all coming together now!! Quote
ukscout Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Jules - how are the seams/joints holding up on the helmet once glued and filled? Would love to see some more pics Quote
Jules Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 Lost count of how many times I ve had to sand and fill the top of the helmet. It seems to be ok now...fingers crossed. The visor was tricky too! I ll post my pics on later when I load them onto Photobucket. Jules Quote
