Well, not sure what to make of this... If you follow the link to the Amazon page it lists the Rubie's product #as 32268 and it says the dimensions are 10"x10"x10". The product number of the Taget helmet is different, but a cursory Google search didn't turn up any dimensions, so... I'm not...

*As a side note, I knew a guy who built a Republic Commando bucket by arranging the Pepakura flaps on the outside of the paper model. Once finished, he brushed layers of melted plastilina (any oil based clay will do) into the interior for strength, until be had approx an inch of thickness. He...

Pretty much... You can strengthen the foam by gluing fabric (strips cut from an old t-shirt work fine) to the underside so that it doesn't disintegrate with repeated wear and tear. This will also help with the sweat. Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk

Also, you can pick up a cheap wood burning tool (repackaged soldering iron) that comes with interchangeable tips for different shapes and thicknesses. Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk

Not to hijack the thread by any means, but definitely err on the side of caution when it comes to fumes. A quick trip to the Home Depot and $15-$20 will get you a 3M Organic Vapor respirator mask. A necessary tool when burning foam and/or mixing Bondo (or MEKP and polyester resin for...
