Two of these old Cine cameras were the departure point for the design process |
 |
After having hack-sawed off the front lens arrays, I place one to see where it might go |
 |
With parcel tape in place, to stop sticking, I fill in gaps with P40 filler |
 |
Holes pre-drilled for lighting |
 |
Pre-turned ally pieces are to be set into the piece, so it can be screwed on and off |  |
Ally plugs in place |
 |
About to repeat the process for the other side |  |
Cables are there to break up the line of the helmet...which people know very well, as it is used often in Low-budget sci-fi movies |
 |
A lump for connecting the cables, which I cut, to make handling the helmet easier |  |
Epoxying the 'spine' which will be covered in ally foil to blend in. |
 |
Ally ringletts I turned and then epoxied. tape is to protect the metal from messy glue. |  |
The same goes for the 'ribs' |
 |
Threading through the LEDS |  |
A quick test |
