Here is my Doc Brown’s mind reading helmet from ’Back to the future’. I absolutely love this film and I could find a lot of props for 3D printing but not this helmet, so here it is. I’m not going to lie to you, it’s not easy project, but for a massive geek and movie fan like me it was totally worth it. On the 3D model all parts fit perfectly, but it’s difficult to put all the parts symmetrically exactly as in the model, so I had to use good old hair dryer technique for couple of connectors. (For those who are new in 3D printing, you can use hair dryer to warm up the plastic part and then reshape it slightly). One the pictures is color coded and colors correspond to the file names so it should make assembly easier. The main coils can be screw to the headband and I glued all the connectors between cylinders. I glued them in this order: blue, yellow, pink, red and green.
