My son recently started a project and he wanted to fiberglass it and then Bondo it. Any tips and tricks?

He is building something similar to the Iron Man helmet.

Answer
A multi-step process. For an extremely close fit, he could make a plaster mask of his own head, which he could then pad out a bit to provide some clearance, and then lay up fiberglass over that and start adding Bondo for sculpting features. When he's done scultpting he can add bicycle helmet padding inside the mask to take up the clearance he built in, help keep it very still on his head.

NOTE: add some extra clearance below the chin so he can move his mouth to talk with the helmet on.

Lots of YouTube vids on how to make a plaster cast of your head, check 'em out. They'll show the process better than I can write it.

How did you get initiated your freshman year?

I didn't get initiated..I was friends with upper class-man.

Answer
All the freshmen at my high school were given really horrible looking hats they had to wear everyday for a week at school. Each freshmen had a senior sister (I went to an all girls high school). Thank GOD my Senior sister was nice. She made me probably the best looking hat of all of them. One girl had to wear a bicycle helmet with burnt popcorn glued all over the top LOL!! IT WAS HILARIOUS. That helmet stunk though haha.
