General Update
🕑 Added 2016-11-30 21:15:55 +0000 UTC Hi All,After my holiday and stuff I'm back. Have made more progress on the NCR ranger helmet as shown above, its happening slower than I had hoped but its still rolling on. Im also making progress on the Big Daddy Drill which Im going on my lunch breaks at work. If any of you saw from my social media posts I've been able to get 2.3kg spools off my supplier which Im hope will save my changing over so often and reduce the wastage I always get at the end of spools. As these spools will last longer I've started looking into a filament dryer or a storage box to permanently house the filament and for it to continually pay out while staying in a dryer environment than just ambient air. If you have any idea guys that I would love the advise.
Other than that, as its starting to get damn cold after work I will start doing more modelling than prop making. Hopefully that means I can finish this helmet off my the end of the year.

I've just made a slightly smaller (2 spool) version of this filament dry box <a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:814597" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:814597</a> I had to improvise a PVC spool holder initially but have just printed these rollers <a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:804996" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:804996</a> to use once I source some 4x10x4 bearings. It's humid as hell here in Georgia(US) and I've been snapping filament constantly as winter creeps upon us. Helm is looking great! :)
