Stormy3D Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Hey, guys! I am currently working on a helmet, but I need a frown mesh. Unfortunately, I have no window screen I could cut up, or anything like that. I wouldn't want to buy a whole window and just use a fraction of the screen. Do you guys have any ideas where I could buy the mesh or something else I could use? (That still has airflow, of course) Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locitus[Admin] Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 You don't need a frown mesh, strictly speaking. It's just something most people put on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trooper1[TK] Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 True, you don't need it. But! In a crowd of people taking pictures, it helps a bunch not getting seen through the teeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Anonymous Egyptian Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 I made mine out of a cooking mesh and some broken tights Sent from my 5022X using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob .T .[TK] Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 It's not screen accurate, and just isn't right in my opinion. If you wear a balaclava nothing shows anyway . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrestonva[TK] Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 I've also found that screen mesh restricts air flow and as a result makes it even hotter inside the helmet. Removing the screen mesh and going with bare teeth + balaclava both hides your face and permits better airflow in/out the helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
