Skull Respirator: Teeth and Crown

After designing the gear that will become the teeth, and also the "crown" which will sit on top of the flattened off skull, I cut them out of acrylic sheet.



The two layers of teeth and three layers of crown will be aligned with brass pins. The acrylic is clear with a tan paper backing that I've left in place.



I've mixed up two-part epoxy gel, and glued the acrylic pieces together. The epoxy comes with one part clear and one part blue, which when mixed together turns clear.



Here I've epoxied the teeth and crown into place on the skull.
