Thanks to all! I haven't molded the finished piece yet as I'd planned, as I ended up going camping over the holiday weekend, but I will try to this week.
I have made the initial mold of the front mouthpiece and will be casting the new master mouthpiece buck from it soon. The original has many small holes that will require attention on the new master buck coming from the initial mold, and the new molded buck will also need to have the bottom curved piece added, as this is missing on the stunt mouthpiece. This will probably be the most time-consuming piece and I will likely save it for last. I will probably do the front lower piece next.
The WANTED poster is just something I mocked up in 5 minutes in Word using a pic of the pilot bike and a short description of the bike's capabilities at the bottom. I use it as the front cover on my Street Hawk three ring binder that holds all of the stuff I've accumulated in the way of photos/clippings/etc. I can email it to any who'd like it, though it may be a couple of days since I believe it is on my pc at work...

I've had almost 0 spare time in the last few months because of working virtually every weekend on my new church building project, but with it now about 95% completed, my attention will once again turn to my projects. Since this one involves borrowed parts, it's at the top of the list. I created a diagram for the right lower piece, but attempts to cut it out myself have failed, so I will be having the buck machined in the nect couple of weeks and move on the the mouthpiece. Here is the almost final shape of the right lower piece btw. I've adjusted it a bit since this but the final shape is on my pc at home:

Hello , I haven't seen any updates on the helmet parts project in a while. How is the project coming along? I would love to know.

Hi, i have decided to start my own replica helmet project. I was wondering if you could be so kind as to send pictures of the front piece of the helmet through my e-mail. I plan to sculpt the front piece myself with clay, but it is very hard to tell the exact shape of the piece. If you can send as many pics as you feel necessary for me to understand what the front piece looks like i would greatly appreciate it. fyi I also found a product that might work well for the right light side pannel if you are interested. This is not the finished piece, just a practice piece. I plan to change the light side pannel into an Amber color.
