    Glue question

    Go to any walmart or craft store and get a glue called tacky glue (you will find it in the craft area or sewing area of walmart). IT is easy to work with. Dries in a few seconds and does not burn your fingers. My problem with the hot glue is some resins released the glue in spots. Also a plus is...

    Bikelomens Papakura armor

    I bought these which are paint ball gloves. I then painted them the same way I painted the armor. I was going to make the hand pieces but I liked these better. Not really authentic but they look good I think. [attachment=628:b90e_1_b.jpg]

    Bikelomens Papakura armor

    Here we go almost the finished product. Still have to adjust how the parts fit and trim some straps this is the first fitting. I know the thighs are riding to high and the crotch piece is not fit right. The first crotch piece was way to small. This one is a tad large. Oh well. The Pap armor is...

    New Materials - PRIMER, EPOXY, And ALUMINUM

    If the primmer stuff is pourable you should build a mold and pour the primmer in your cast. Then you wont have to worry about alluminum, shapping etc. Just pour the primmer in and you have a hard as hell suit.

    HJC Visor size

    I ordered two and they both fit. These are the sizes that you can look for in HJC HJC AC-11 AC11 CL-14 CL14 Most of the visors from HJC will work. The main difference is the way they mount to the HJC helmets. The rathcet mech is a bit different but the sizes are all pretty close.

    What can I use to cut my visor...

    That is a 3/8" chuck but I think you are going to have a hard time controling the drill to cut accurate. I would go realy slow the face shield cost more then a dremel. You can get a Dremel at the following address for 6$ http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Disp...temnumber=94076 Not the best...
