Getting Started

[Matakin]

Hello,

 

But what do I do to get started on the molding the helmet sculpt and fiberglass parts? How much are those worth?

 

I'm here occasionally.

Thanks.

Welcome to the FISD Matt!!!

 

There are a few threads about this, and some very crafty guys ( even would dare use the term "Master Craftmen")

 

Stick around, have fun and read all u can.

 

Glad u found your way here!!!!

Making your own molds is not for the faint of heart.

I have heard it makes people go mad. Then they break everything, and in the tantrum, they slice their tendons in their wrist on shards of shattered fiberglass helmet pieces... leaving them "maimed and scarred" for the rest of their lives.

I haven't gone quite that mad... yet, but the process does take a few years. So, if you're not patient, then yeah, I suppose it can drive you nuts.
