    In answer to wheelin question re dome shape to the head, just form the foam to the require shape and problem solved.
    Yup - added a link to allow it to get further under a lip but should have set the flats at 90 degress to get the long side of the paper working - will make another link as soon as I get another 4mm tap . You can't even feel the rivet heads once you put paper on the rig. The EVA foam is real easy to shape against a sander so doming it wouldn't be a problem but in testing it so far, the foam allows the paper to conform to the shape without any further attention

    No worries, darn 4mm taps can be a bit tricky. As to changes on the run, I 've got heaps all over of less than successful mods and ideas. Sometimes....only sometimes, I get to use them on something else.
