Re: For all you leather cowl workers...
Quote: GA, are you planning to extend the form into a skullcap with ears, or just use it for the upper-face and brow/forehead area?
The entire cowl is going to be formed leather. If I end up using vacu formed plastic under some of it it will only be in the brow and ears, but thats looking like it might not be necessary as my leather is holding it's shape pretty well.

Re: For all you leather cowl workers...
Wow! It'll be impressive if you do manage to get this done without using a vacu-form shell.

Re: For all you leather cowl workers...
:lol @ GA
And if you ever get the VF table going, I'm coming down to see you! Perhaps you can do my Head cast (like we talked about ages ago!), at the same time??
Tim, Progress abounds, I've got the Eye\Brow, cheek and temple sections completed, just beginning to form them up. To "fake" the stitching (cos it's all glued), I've taken a edge seam from a panel and inserted it between each piece, working out so far, reckon I'll have this done within a week if I keep at it..
