Beer Helmet -- Army Style

So during a heavy night of drinking about a year ago I came up with the bright idea of making a beer helmet, but use an army helment instead of the typical constructin helmet. Hungover as all hell the next day that is exactly what I did.

****WARNING: THIS IS MY FIRST INSTRUCTABLE SO IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE VERY, VERY, GHETTO****

Step 1 Parts

*Army helmet (can pick up at any army navy store for like ten bucks)
*Plastic tubing
*T-connector for plastic tubing
*4 cup holders (I "borrowed" them from the local target that has a starbucks inside. Their idea is to clip these things onto carts to hold your coffee as you shop. My idea is to clip beer to my head).
*2 camo coozies
*8 cable ties (those velcro things that you use to keep your cables neat)
*Zip ties

***Please note that I built this thing a year ago and don't have pictures to document.

You forgot to post the picture of you wearing it, complete with beer... Also, it looks like it would act as a siphon. once you took a swig, it wouldn't stop.

[irollmyown]

Didn't have any beer on hand that night...sorry. It doesn't work like a siphon, in fact it does the complete opposite. When you stop drinking the system loses pressure and the tube fills with air/foam. That's why on the last step I said to add an end cap to keep the pressure. I haven't really ever wore it, just tried it out and put it in a closet.

Too bad indead...thanks for the comment! It was my first instructable so I'm glad you could could kinda follow it along.

[duck-lemon]

Any time, i'm gonna make this but with the things that keep beer cold instead, i wont be able to use it for six years though. (legally...)

[BillyK12]

very cool, If I make this, I won't use beer, I'd use Coca cola! hehe! I'm 2 young to drink.

[Your Average Guy]

Aww Nice! This is awesome! I should've thought of this and then again I couldn't have because you just posted it. I am so making this thanks. 5 stars

[Matt D655]

[Yerboogieman]

never drink tequila through those leather water things, it doesnt taste right, i think a camel back would be the same?

If you have a cat-eye band you could fasten the cans with it, I'm not sure if it holds, but I can test it if you want.

[Jr Hacking kid]

hay look its Rambo's helment full of ice cold beer or some orange soda

[drahz]

[bujo0]

lol sweet, that would make an awesome song!

[Lt. Duct Tape]

what kind of plastic tubing did you use? I hear some kinds of tubing are like, poisonous. Please answer before a weird fourteen year old (EG: me) decides to make one of these without knowing what he's doing and dies of drinking poisoned soda. Thanks in advance, Sam Skirata

[oinkoinkzoopals]

[RAMBO the cat]

[Demonicchicken]

This is what ive been looking for, ever since i saw it on spongebob a while back, but, where would you get cup-holders without "borrowing" them?

[irollmyown]
