Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

I always buy this block from the wal mart i work at

And this glue

Hope that helps, if you buy that glue be careful its very strong and dries fast, if you get your fingers glued togheter, you may want to have an acetone bottle nearby, LOL

Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

That helmet is awesome! Are you planning to fit all the electronics inside it or to run cables down to the body?

Yes my friend, im going to run cables tru the body, and if possible switches in my hands to control everything

Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

Cool! My idea is to use one of those portable battery banks to run everything and store that in the back and have a thin cable running down the neck

are you planning on switches or flex sensors in the hands?

i have 22 1/2", do i have to rescale?? i'll just fiberglass the inside then body filler the outside...

Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

That looks great so far.

I coat the outside with resin , when dry i coat the inside, then i add another to outside and another to inside, then when dry i add fiberglass mat from inside and coat again then when fully cured i sand a little the outside so the bondo sticks better, i think you need to rescale it just a little! maybe 10 % will do

Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

22 to 22 1/2 is not much of a difference...so to go 10% difference might be a lot...

Its not much different but if your going to hinge it, you shoul rescale it, from 5% to 10% because mine is very thight and my head is 22" exactly, just play with the scale as you like

Re: Made007 War Machine! Bondo stage done!

My fingers cut

They werent that bad to glu but to cut them thats another story

That tape is just for holding them it will be removed prior to resin

Im just doing one set, im gonna mold that one to make a casting for the other hand, the only finger that changes is the thumb, is diferent for the left, so i inverted the pattern and used it for left hand

Lets see if i can pep the lower torso and elbows today
