Another custom Deepeeka Gallic helmet! - Martin Wallgren - 04-05-2007
I´ve just been out cutting the neck guard off! Woaaahhh, soo nervous, well it went good. To make the neckguard much smaller Ive cut it down by 4 cm. I have also cut the earguards to a more wedged form.
Will put up pictures when I had my coffey and calmed down a bit!
B right Back!

Martin,
By my reckoning that is 20 minutes you have had for coffee and calming down - enough already! Let us see the pics :lol:

The old Deepeeka Gallic H!
Gotto go to work now and the battery of the DCam was dead so I have to charge it so you guys have to wait untill tomorrow! Anyways it´s a sad sight right now, hehe. I have also removed the neckguard from the bowl and shortened the bowl by one ridge. A friend of mine will weld it on the neckguard again and it will be somewhat less deep and with only three ridges as should be more correct I think!

Nice. Will you be changing the cheek pieces, or keeping them as is?
Re: Another custom Deepeeka Gallic helmet! - Martin Wallgren - 04-05-2007
