Matthew, that is brilliant. I cant believe how people come up with such simple and yet so effective ideasall the time, god i just love this forum. I really do learn something great every time i log in here. Once again great job.

even tho your wig head is faceing up, the mask can still be placed accordingly.
oh ya, awesome job!!

Thanks guys. And especially you halloweenbarb. I didn't even think of that. That will save me some time. If anybody is planing on building one of these I recommend having a second person measure the length from your helmet to the base of your head. I had to do it by myself and couldn't get an accurate measurement because I kept having to look up.

Well if you can get a general measurement you then can make a linkage of two pieces of all thread. Then put a turnbuckle in the center using a tube and two nuts welded on. that would then give you (depending on the size of the turnbuckle) anywhere from 2-8 inches of adjust-ability. Thats what I plan on doing atleast, just thought I would share.

That's a good idea biggie. I just used some flat stock and kept cutting it down inch by inch.

thats really good, oooh a man in a hard hat

Nice idea on the tripod, I think I may try this in the very near future!!

It's really fairly simple. The only hard part is adjusting the head so it has the right viewing angle.

You have to keep showing us pictures of your progress. My husband is dying to make one!

I used the tripod on mine and it worked very well.
A tip from me to you.Either have a friend OR a place to hang that thing because taking it on and off to use the restroom is a PITA when you are alone.
