...Hopefully if we and others work together, we can add some more Chicken Walkers to the SS scene.
Awesome stuff Joe, be great to see the final results with the donors in place, and please feel free to add what ever you want to this thread, the more info the better same for Niels also. Its also good to see you using a capo, was it for clamping , cool idea.
That would be great! I'm right at the point of being ready to start. I have an armature, and all the kits collected. My plan is to mold some of the parts to help me limit the number of kits I needed. (I essentially have one of every part I need) Happy to help others making their Chickens with parts I am molding anyways. Any chance someone could direct me to the right person to ask for those amazing blueprints? I have all the bits, but it would be helpful to have something I could print out and lay out for comparison. Not asking for a handout...happy to pay.
For all you guys looking to vacform the head, please be advised that the plan set(s) currently circulating probably need up to 5.0mm added to the overall length at the back of the head.

I had some problems getting the parts on the top of the v1 head to all fit and had to trim the "railing" as a cheat.
Quincy,
When you made your plugs, did the top of the head bow in just slightly? Both of the molds I made bow in down the middle if looking at it straight on so the styrene plate that the M5A1 part rests on does not sit perfectly flat on the top of the head. Instead there is a gap towards the center of the head where it sinks lower than the sides.
It's obviously from the lack of support in the middle and possibly also from the molds sitting there all summer, not sure. It's not much but still noticeable.
PLMK, as I may have to rip the molds apart to add some extra curvature to the top plate.
Joe
