Hey guys,
If interested, 3D prints are available to you at Shapeways. I gave you a few option for materials/pricing.

Should they be tapered? The tip looks like a hot glue gun tip.
Really? A Bostik hot glue gun on ebay looks just like it. Just search for "remmington hammer glue gun". and oddly enough the Bostik 3851 Latex adhesive 120ml cans look like the cans too.

There are fittings for airbrush hoses that look similar, but the scale is wrong.
These were an earlier version of my caps... I wasn't able to stop the prints in time, but thought they turned out pretty nice. The cap is a little short IMO, so I might order a set of the newer ones. I also think I may just do one an cast it, since I will probably have to paint them chrome anyhow.

I frequent that site for fabric color and textures.
This isn't a ANH Raider... either EPI or II Raider

I think 64mm is too large (2.5")... IMO 2" is closer to the right size. I don't think the glue gun tip is big enough... looks great, it's just too small to be accurate. Also, the canister they used had a flatter cone shape, a lot of these glue cans have too steep a cone. If your'e REALLY going for accuracy.

I've done more work on the models, making the walls thinner, etc. This brought the cost down a bit more.

Sorry to necro an old thread but Andrew Ainsworth was quoted saying that he sculpted the Tusken Raider head and his friend Nick Pemberton created the respirators out of Silvo polish tins.
Pemberton also sculpted the original stormtrooper helmet and together with Ainsworth they produced the original stormtrooper armor for ANH at Shepperton studios in England.
These look great but if you're going for as close to screen accurate as possible you're better off buying two vintage Brasso cans ( their dimensions are identical to Silvo cans) and soldering or welding them together.
