‘star wars carbon fiber stormtroopers helmet’

 

 

made entirely of carbon fiber, engineering technician leonard carson of san diego-based composites has developed a star wars stormtroopers helmet exclusively using aerospace grade materials. weighing just over 500 grams – the headpiece which even includes an interior foam lining (for protection during battle that is). carson had been toying around with this idea of a carbon fiber stormtrooper for a long time. being the huge star war fans that he is, and often working with the material for the composites company, the process began: there was a lot to consider for this project, especially cost. then he convinced three of his engineering co-workers to jump on board.read more here.
