    The main reason you had issues with the tint was because you are suppose to get soapy water on the part your tinting and the tint itself before applying it and using a credit card for example to push out the bubbles from the centre to the edges and giving the tint time to dry out normally 24 hours I had the same issues with my helmet project and these small changes made it much easier 😊 your helmet came out quiet well!

  • @tomsdreamshopworx
    @tomsdreamshopworx Před 6 lety +19

    Looks great! Spray the tinting with a light soap water solution and use a squeegee to smooth it on and work out the bubbles.

      Yeah, as I was watching, I was saying it would be a miracle if that turned out even okay without using soapy water.

    Great video! For the tint, you can spray soapy water on the adhesive side and onto the surface of the material. This allows you to move it around a bit and squeegee out the bubbles.

    great video! i bought a printer myself just for this and the N7 breather helmet. After some figurines, tools and other things i have finally started my trooper helmet. Im currently printing part 12. It was nice seeing how you put everything togheter glued and sanded and sanded and primed and sanded and painted and sanded and sanded. But the final result was amazing and i cant wait to start working on mine. Excellent job.

  • @trinitrotasteless
    @trinitrotasteless Před 4 lety +1

    With the aluminum mesh, if you cut it the same size of the raised ring, and then press it in, you should be able to pull it out with a small pick, and then reinsert it "upside down" so the part that would have been bent up when you first inserted, is now facing down, and will provide a consistent perimeter and a slight sense of depth.

  • @chefboypardee4855
    @chefboypardee4855 Před 5 lety +1

    2 things
    1. When you use bonds it's better to get the blue hardner(cracks less than red hardner)
    2. Try rondo 1/2 bondo 1/2 fiberglass resin ) makes it runny enough to fill all grooves

    Love this video. I just printed my first attempt using a printer that probably made it WAY easier than you had 6 years ago. Everything went great...had to print it in 12 pieces with my small print bed. Well, everything went great until I glued the dome top pieces on and didn't get it aligned properly before the CA glue cured...the tabs in the model I'm using means there is no UNDO...I'll be printing another one......

  • @naderal-ghazu2222
    @naderal-ghazu2222 Před 5 lety

    To apply tint film, you are supposed to make some watery dish soap solution, spray between the film and sheet you apply it to, then with plastic ruler you squeeze the soap out, it dries fast and gives great smooth result.

    One tip for the future; apply some windex or any cleaner you have on hand to the window tinting film..apply to the surface...and rub it till there is no bubbles . Let dry and voila your done

  • @bunherr8974
    @bunherr8974 Před 3 lety

    nice build! pro tip: wet the tint film with soapy water before applying, by doing this you can move the film around untill you are satisfied, then using a windowscraper wipe all the water from under the film... voila!

    The bondo was part was unnecessary, a proper mid-low sanding grit to high grit is what I do first, then to fill in the gaps, then I use Spot Bondo Putty. That’s your thing though, there’s a lot more work put in when you have to do a lot of sanding after it cures.
