I couldn't attach this photo to yesterday's post about my jetpack, but here's the helmet I made to go with it. I got the 3D model for it from CADGothenburg on Etsy, printed it in PETG on a Bambu Lab P1S, glued it together and used UV-curing plastic to smooth out the seams, sanded & painted it, and heat-formed lenses out of tinted acrylic. There's some generic helmet padding on the inside, and I'll be adding a proper chinstrap once my shipment of leather shows up. Oh, and I blacked out the mouth part with the outside material from a black N95 mask from COVID, because it lets through enough air that it doesn't fog up the lenses from the inside.

I know I just joined here, but I'm really stoked that I finished my jetpack, with custom exhaust effects. Now I get to start on the leatherworking for my harness.
