I love the old fiberglass goalie masks from the 70's, and as a goalie, I've always wondered what it's like to be behind one. So, I built a Parent/Lindberg style mask last summer. I made a paper mache copy from a mask I got off E-bay, then used fiberglass over that. Then I used that as the buck to create a new mask. It took about a week and a half - as I had time. I have tried it in practice and during warm-ups in the over-30 league. But I know whay they don't use these anymore! Hot and poor vision! I won't use it in a game for fear of losing track of the puck and getting hurt. But it's pretty fun to wear!
