Hadn't thought of the air venting in. Thanks

Working on my Ata helmet. I plan to use an epoxy mount for both eyes, but I'm having trouble reshaping the lenses. Tried putting one in boiling water. The water boiled off before the plastic was soft. Any suggestions out there? Every tutorial I find on lenses leaves out how to shape the lens.

Thanks now that you mention it I see that. Should be doing the fitting this weekend.

trimmed out the eyes and frown for my bucket while i'm waiting for the full ata kit. critiques welcome

I've been so caught up in helmet research that I haven't gone into the differences of each tk build. One mountain at a time right. Plus I've got about 9 more months of waiting for my kit to research the actual armor. I live between Moncks corner and Summerville. Let me know if you scrape together a party. I'd love to learn from folks with more experience than me

Been lurking for a while. Saw some of you guys at the captains comic expo panel. Got my hands on an ATA helmet kit to build while I wait for the rest of it. How often do you guys do the armor parties in this area? Studying a lot of tutorials and trying to absorb as much info as I can before cutting into this thing.
