need advice for Roman Ridge helm construction

sarnac · Post by **sarnac** » Wed Nov 22, 2000 11:59 am

I recently purchased helm pieces from Ron Simmons (who's quality and speed of delivery I do not have espouse on this board).
Now I have done armor of most kinds, out of Leather, barrel plastic (not happy about it but it was a favor) kydex and steel.
However I have never made a helm before.
Because the top is in two pieces I am going to try to construct it in a roman ridge helm style. Any examples, ideas or advice would be helpful.
Thanks

These people have an exploded diagram on their page.
