Pieces 13 and 14 are supposed to represent a component on the real dive helmet that directs a stream of air on the forward viewport to prevent condensation.

I'm currently working on Steampunking my downstairs. I saw this in my email and my first thought was, "That's cool, but I don't need a divers helmet." Then it occurred to me that it would look AWESOME in my downstairs as decoration (and...maybe occasionally to be worn around my house, lest the neighbors think I'm normal or something.) Another awesome creation! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing creations!

I use the helmet for our Rock-Show Stage performance. We are Covernaut a Rock cover band who supposed to be a "steampunk-look" expedition team with their Ship Covernaut on the seven Seas. So your Helmet was exactly what I was looking for to complete our appearance. Thanx a lot!

@@LostWax Yeah. I'm definitely gonna build one, using your work as inspiration, along with a nice, little replica, that I got a good deal on, at a thrift shop, as reference. It's pretty accurate, and the details appear to be exact. It's made of real brass and some other metals, and is roughly, about a quarter of the size of the real thing (about the size of a large cantaloupe or a honey dew melon). It's pretty cool looking for a small scale. Now I wanna make an actual size one out of EVA. I'm glad I found your video. GREAT JOB!!

This pattern scales down quite well. The pattern does already include two sizes, the adult size as well as one that would fit a child, so, depending what you want you might not need to scale.
