Check it out guys. I made the Cirrus X3 jetpack from The Rocketeer in genuine steel. Watch the video below.

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this
Will you be constructing the helmet as well? (templates at JfCustom's foam files thread).

Depends on how popular the jetpack video gets. I have looked into ways to try it in brass but I don't have the equipment for it, so I would likely have to do it in steel and then color the metal with Rub'n Buff. Not sure how accurate that would look.

You could always ask sandbagger about it; he made a complete iron man suit out of steel.
