I did the same thing, it just stops short of the screws and uses vlecro
-
and the whole "frown" is cut out and has mesh as well

Instead of a regular hardware store. Locate a welding supply store. They will have a better selection and my experience better quality. You can get it in several different shades of green.
#5 is usually a cutting shield. It is very dark. I like them for doing outdoor events. Indoors they can be a little dark.
We are experimenting with putting the lens in with velcro, that way we can change them for different uses. The really dark one for outdoors and lighter ones for Indoors.
The velcro is working great, no more melting my helmet with hot glue
Larry and I plan on using #5 for outdoor, #3 for indoor, and stealing an idea from a guy at the Rose parade, mesh for Parades

I agree with Mike, Paint works the best, also stiffens it nicely.Larry and I set ours up the same way as Mike
I modified my post war leather one to add the mag loader pouch and it holds my speaker perfectly. When I paint up my canvas one I will be putting that one up for sale.

no, for Mike we need a bus!!!

Just FYI, I have taken it upon myself to now be Mike's agent, and I will be handling all autograph requests. For a little "extra" I can have it personalized
Of course I haven't talked to Mike about this, but his is a Busy man so...

a bunch of my MG 34 pics are already on this board, it just has a post war bipod

Please note there are weight and size restictions on the luggage. And different airports do not have the smae "strick-ness". When I went to the Rose parade I put all my armor and some clothes in an anvil box. when I left BWI (Baltimore) the girl put the heavy tag on the box and aske dif I wouldn't mind setting it on the conveyer. When I left california, they said it was over 70 lbs and it would cost me an extra $80!!. Also, I was told between 50 and 70 lbs it would have been $45. In the future I will break them up between 2 boxes. I have also read an article that you might be paying for all bags in the future, reguardless of weight.

The guys marching in 2 files on the Deathstar in ANH have their weapons holstered.

I'm just shocked someone beside me remembers Burger Chef

Now that would be funny

I would have to agree!!!

3 layers of white canvas and 2 layers of interfacing, as wide as the belt front

We're not going to do any draconian post editing or anything, but please everyone play nice.
Gino; I think the apprehension stemmed from the tone you took initially. You have changed to a more respectful approach and I would appreciate if everyone would do so.
All board members here deserve respect regardless of post count, amount of knowledge, or status within the hobby. All board members should remember that.
Hey!! do you mean me

the tubes stripes differ in numbers all the way through the films,
and some makes tubs are smaller than others so again its a difficult one, if i did that would i get others saying that they look too close together?
you're right, and none of us are ever happy
-
I wonder if the tube stripes could be closer together? I couldn't get them all on my AP helmet. someone here posted how he got them closer together, but it seemed liek a lot of work.
What number of stripes are supposed to be on the helmet? are the number the same on both sides?
Help! (There's something screwy going on here.)

BTW, ignore the bipod.
