This is the shape before I started the screws, should it have been this much effort to force the plastic?

Back view

Spent way to much time on just one ear, and not happy with the gap. I believe I was hoping that the bottom of the ear rivet would help push the plastic at the top of the tube, but no luck.

I followed the build on Walt's facebook page. I did look at PandaTRoopers build and he placed the second rivit/screw at the bottom of the tube, but I thought that would give me problems with the bottom of the ear and the gap at the top of the tube was over 2 inches (with no screw/rivit in that location) Suggestions?

thanks, looking forward to the process and the eventual trooping. Did the attachment of the helmet to the face, using screws until everything is good to go. In a Walt's kit he supplies two sets of ears, so that tells me this is a sticking/screw up point for a lot of builders. Watched the facebook post where Walt builds a helmet, but I do have a question on the ears. Is there a set thickness for the top of the ear, I saw the faint lines inside , do I cut to that?

Starting the build of a Walt's Trooper Factory TK. Step one complete, BBB in hand. Started trimming the armor and putting the helmet together. Will post pictures once I figure out the process, because I have plenty of questions.

Hey Sean, Can you post a picture of the side of the bucket? I am working on my WTF and want to make sure of placement before I drill the rivit locations. Lou

Thanks Sean!

Is there a link to Walt's helmet build video?

Thanks for the recommendation and link, ordered a pair.

Shops closing down or on hiatus for the month. Not a good time to order a quality boot...

As I wait for my BBB from Walt, any updates on this build?

I would be interested in the links.

Sent my money to yahoo.COM and not yahoo.de Corrected, let me know if you got it today. Lou
