Build your own Ironman suit 2008

Step 2Initial trimming & such

Initial trimming & such
This is the point in which lots of dust is produced.
I use a drill press armed with a grinding stone to remove all unnecessary material.
This is the first sanding step & believe me - you will get really sick of sanding with this project.

I will need to use a dremmel tool to finish the eye work & dental picks to clean out the grooves of any goofs.

I did these first 3 steps in about 4 hours.

Missiles may be a little harder than anyone may think to get. Consider this, most of the weapons will be off limits to civilians. So you either have to custom make your weapons or some other option. The other 4 friends of mine and I are going to open a weapons manufacturing industry to create a new wave of weapons that will change the history of war. For example: A Missile that has a built in computer granting access to only those who have authorization. Security system will include, Eye or Retinal Scanner, Hand Print Id, and specific codes, maybe even some voice activation as well, and all of this will be one big security system to make sure that the weapons do not fall into the wrong hands. I am thinking of a bomb that we currently use in war and modifying it so that when all or to many attempts at the security goes wrong the missile will have a default and will have all these different things happen within it that will make it non-fissionable or not able to blow up or be used for nuclear purposes. So just think about it. My Email is below this comment on another comment lol. or here -> cdthomas93@yahoo.com Thanks for reading.
