14 in. Clear Acrylic Globe - with 5.25 in. Neckless Opening - American 3202-14020-003

I was exactly as I expected and it made a great costume accessory. It will fog up if you use it in the cold so be sure to drill some air holes if you use it for a helmet. We taped it up before cutting and it did fine although you do need to be delicate as it is a little bendy afterward. We lined the hole with pipe insulator for comfort. My kid looked great. It was expensive for what we used it for, and they wouldn't ship to Alaska so grandma had to bring it up on the plane, but I couldn't find anything else that would do the job as well. You could potentially save a some money by using the 12 inch especially for a child. I would encourage the company to start shipping to AK, we need globes too!!!!!

Please be careful cutting this open, a crack can easily propgate through several inches of the globe if you drop it, squeeze it too hard, or pull on it.I recommend after making your helmet (i'm assuming 90% of you are using this for a helmet instead of a lighting covering), that you place strips of duct tape around the inside so in case something does crack, the tape holds it in place.It's not like this thing cracks frequently, I just dropped it once and got a 4'' crack, so you might as well be safe.

This worked great for a space costume I made. I had to cut the hole wider to fit my head through, but that was fine.The material is strong but it has enough flex to it that it doesn't feel brittle. I don't know if it would survive being fully dropped, but it handled being dremeled, sanded, drilled, and screwed into without cracking or warping, which is nice. The price is really high but it did what I needed it to do.

I ordered a size too small for my project but I honestly contemplated keeping this globe and getting the size I needed because of the quality of the globe.

Worked perfectly as the “crystal ball” for the Madame Leota prop my daughter and I created!

I ordered this item a little while ago to make a helmet. Not a deadmau5 helmet but a Space Helmet. It worked just perfectly for my replica Apollo/Skylab A7L Spacesuit replica Halloween Costume. I would recommend this item to anyone that would like to make a Diving Helmet, Space Helmet, or deadmau5 head.

the hole is not like the picture a new born would be able to get tgeir head in

Hole is not as big as the picture!
