"I have many leather bound softs and my helmet smells of rich mahogany"
:D

........Is it wrong that I really like this? Not sure I could get away with wearing one on a Saturday but looks lovely.....

:D
Brilliant!!!!!
-
The reaction from getting it out of the box to putting it together surprised us in the office too, from being visually offended to seeing it in a new light 2 hours later after it had sat on the desk next to us :D
-
Has someone ordered this Tom or is it one to show off your capabilities?
-
SO how does it stack up to the BSI requirements ;)

Just one i thought might look quite cool once produced so tagged it onto our latest batch :)

Wouldnt change anything as long as you middle it and avoid the outside edges :)
-
Saw this on Facebook and loved it! So original.
-
is this a vinyl wrap? looks awesome.
-
Wonder how well it pings!
-
What grade is it? ;)
-
Few blemishes so may have to go down as a G2, its not vinyl something different to that process as we have tried this as its not very durable.
-
Tom is this digi-print vinyl - if so, do you know which vinyl it was (feel free to pm me)
-
its not vinyl mate something different that we use :)
-
Is it actually wood? Looks mahogany-esque
-
Brilliant work!
What's next? Marble? Diamond? Afro/Hair?
-
The afro-hair one could be the next as im thinning on top due to the amount going on of late!!
-
I had advised to ban TomTek some time ago but no one heeded....still better late than never!!
Jokes aside this looks incredible actually, really love the look of it. Brilliant job!
-
haha thanks mate, plenty more up our sleeve to come yet this year I can assure you :)
-
Ahhh!! :(
Soon we'll see leather ones I guess!
-
Can you get one willow coloured?
-
A thumbnail gallery of the more esoteric designs would be great to see.
-
Yes we can produce them in a lighter effect, this was just an experimental version to see A. If it came out ok and B. What it looked like.
Not looked at leather ones as they would soon get roughed up and damaged and the cost would be pretty steep i would imagine!!
-
WW1 German helmet with spike? :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
-
Disco ball next please. I'll happily wear it in the H4L game.
-
Jake, you can add you own diamante bling to it ;)

how about the inside of a brain... I think that would be seriously freaky
(http://static.euronews.com/articles/224892/606x341_224892_deep-inside-the-brain.jpg?1369059102)
the wood looks great though

Funny you should bring this up as we recently had to judge/view the "Design you own Helmet" competition that was ran in conjunction with the chaps at All Out Cricket :)

Ha, bowlers try to hit me on the head regularly as it is, they best get some men on the rope at square leg if i get some shiny diamantes!

Brain or a skull would look very cool.

I've heard that 35+ grained helmets ping better right from the box but don't last as long as 8-10 grain helmets. Is this correct? :D
