Helmet - 16th Century Italian Armour
Helmet - 16th Century Italian Armour

This is a 3D model of a helmet, part of a suit of armour, from the collection of the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences. The armour, made of steel, was forged in Italy in the 1500s by an unknown creator.
This was one of ten Museum objects scanned in 3D for Hack the Collection, a public program in the 2014 Sydney Design Festival, which matched ten contemporary Sydney designers with ten objects from the Museum’s collection.
Designers spent two intensive days in the Festival FabLab, creatively manipulating the 3D object files to design their own hacked interpretations in full view of an excited public. At the conclusion of the weekend, the designers’ remixed objects were 3D printed on MakerBots and displayed alongside their original counterpart.
We see our collection as raw assets for inspiration. We encourage you to download and remix our collection as you take it in new directions. We'd love to hear about the new forms and uses you find for our objects – drop us a line to show us your work!

This is so cool. I printed it at 50% size. If I print it again, I will flatten the bottom. It not flat so adhesion could be a problem. I didn't use any supports for this but I would use support for the leather strap next time. This mesh is really fine, I took it into fusion and reduced the mesh but it didn't change the print time so I ended up printing the original.
