Some practices shown in my videos can be dangerous. If you emulate any of those practices or follow any of my advice you are doing so entirely at your own risk. - Jak na to + styl
Awesome how you give credit to the other channels and participate in the community. Keep up with the awesome videos
I genuinely love this channel, thank you! Need to work on my practical skills. Very impressive work :)
If you are in the U.S. you can use old stop signs for aluminum plating (show the back side)
You may find this weird but I cant even begin to explain how useful your channel is to Orc LARPers as well
thanks, and i dont find it weird at all. look- and techniquewise orcs have very much in common with wasteland stuff
also, i think my voice is meh :D could be more deep and manly and with less accent :D
No way. your voice is dope. I love your accent
haha thanks!
AMG I love your videos so much!
Beautiful work
You can get 2mm Aluminium at most stores specialized on metal long- and sheet-goods, in Germany those are called "Baubeschlag- und Metallhandel" most of the time, i know there was one in Dortmund from which i bought my aluminium perfboards.
Also a tipp for cutting it, unles its hardened or high grade alloy composition like "aircraft grade aluminium", a circular saw for wood can also cut up to 3mm aluminium, so if you have one with a miter slide its a good idea to get straight edges. Ofc a cheap blade with a high tooth counts is the best idea for this as you wont have to worry about a cheap one as much as youd worry about an expensive one. And yes also a router with cheap bits works if you dont have an CnC or dont want to spend the money on NoFe Bits, just be carefull to not take of to much material at once or it might stall or lock in.
thanks ,good and economical advice there, didnt think of using cheap bits OR wood sawblade. does the latter really work on regular AlMg3?
and thanks for the advice where to get alu IRL, i always ordered online ,since Baumarkt doesnt have it thicker than 1mm :S
where is that place in Dortmund? cuz i am from Dortmund.. :D
FullMetalFox cool
ZedNoughtAlpha - cool Guy
3:49 my boy zna got a shoutout!
yeah ZNA ruleZ!
so good :D nice armor plate good job and a lot of good idea ;)
I just came here from one of Eli's videos! Nice tutorial too
i will work on my first on in summer, i wll post it t oyou, thanks for sharing your knowledge
Finally, new video!
Woooooo new vid!!!
great video! I've used some of your techniques for the new DR:OK chapter. Question on possible materials: how do you feel about using 2mm ABS plastic sheets to heat up and shape for the armor plates?
did exactly that before ,works,why not :)
This looks great, I love it! Will you make a tutorial for how to make armour from bicycle tires? Your tutorials and videos are very good and I learn so much from you!
thanks. but whats there to amke? you take the bycicle tire, cut it up, and attach it how you want it to your base. same as with drawing an owl, really i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/572/078/d6d.jpg
Thank you for the great and inspiring videos. can you also recommend another metal that is as easy to work with as aluminum? I don't really want to work with aluminum because of the health hazards.
Increible...me encanta
May I make a suggestion? I really love your videos, I've been watching them for a long time. My favorite one so far is your workshop video, I've watched it several times and I pick up something new each time. The reason I love that video so much is that it's very hands on, and you're interacting directly with all your stuff. It was very engaging and continues to be very informative. I feel like the videos you set up where you're scrolling through images on your PC aren't as engaging. Still incredibly informative, and I utilize or note all the information given, but I don't feel as excited, it's like sitting through a PowerPoint presentation in class. Again, I hope you don't take this too personally, or as some sort of aggressive criticism, I just wanted to express my opinion a little. Keep up the great work, I've learned a lot from you and I value the information!
you are correct :) the ones with video are also waaay harder and more time-consuming to make thou :/ and my video camera is shit compared to my photo camera, so.. but yeah i get it, ppl wanna watch a guy work on stuff :D
Awsome as ever! Now where did i put my aluminum
Love this video and your channel bro but that flipping stamping on the keyboard is a no no dude.
Thanks for the work on this one, great help.
What size screws do you for the attachment? I have some #10 screws that are 4.826mm but they look too large for this purpose. I guess it doesn't really matter with the finished product, but still curious as to what you use.
So what kind of jacket is that? Been looking for something similar. Thank you. :)
Wegen diesem Video werde ich mir jetzt so eine für die resi bauen. Danke für den geilen Content
Weisst du ao rüstungen dieser art bei der Resi "schütztn "vor kugeln?
Mach weiter so!;)
viel spass und kp frag die orga, denke nicht ^^ und für resi müsste es noc hfuturistischer aussehn, das hierp asst eh zum fate
I realise this is an older video but I would like to know what the harness you used for the armour is? I would like to make a similar piece for a LARP character
What is thickness of the EVA foam that your normally use?
Would love you to do a how to make this vast armour
I think jagged edges looked nice! Perfect symmetry in the apokalypse seems unlikely ;)
depends on the apocalypse. and more on the art genre ur going for. but anyway, u can make jagged edges too, but then u need to sand them safe afterwards, just leaving a burred edge is recipe for disaster
How good will the dirt etc stay on when its a rainy con?
Im really scared of everything getting washed of in the rain
What exaxt vest did you use and where is a good online source?
Thumbs up for spider jizz
Looks like a movie prop
Welding gloves will work great for sanding your metal just a little advice from a welder but otherwise I agree gloves do get in the way and can grab the belt sander and I would advise doing that outside if possible aluminum dust is toxic
Aluminum dust is also flammable. It is used by NASA in their solid rocket boosters.
The fact he knows zna 😍
Any idea how to make armored Biker vests?
And remember kids:
*"Nothing is more metal than metal"*
Aye aye capt''n!
What was the starting vest called please?
oooo could I get the template, I love it
What exactly is the material you used as upholstery /lining for the original piece? You mention something about canvas or cordura, but im not sure.
as i said in the vid, u can use anything. in my example armour (the good one) i used cordura, its tuff, but also tuff to wrap things into. in the example chestplate i used tshirt jersay fabric
weird, for cordura, how did you make it look so rubberized / canvas-y?
machine oil ;) also its inside out
what grit do you use on the belt sanders?
no idea tbh :D
Wait did you deadass use like a cheap ballistic vest for this costume?
dead-ass what? but anyway, you can use a cheap vest as a base, yeah.
For us yanks, 2 mm is about .08 inches, or 14 gauge...
where do you generaly find stuff or straps
got a video about just that :) look in my list
Nuclear Snail Studios thanks i live your tips
Just punching them keys lol
Красиво, жалко сабов на русском нет. А так вы молодец!
What vest is that?
uh a Miltec lasercut molle vest, dunno exact name
Nuclear Snail Studios 👍🏿
Really great to see new video, but stop smacking that keyboard so strongly - it's annoying as hell xD
no :P
:D Weiße Socken und Jesuslatschen, deutscher gehts nicht :D
That is a cross peen hammer
Nein Vater hat einen Finger verloren weil er mit dem handschuh in einer Bohr Maschine hängen geblieben ist
woah.. ja ,das ist sux :( deswegen nie handschuhe + powerwerkzeuge, und generell imemr aufpassen. wenn im zweifel lieber sein lassen als auf gut-glück versuchen wo man sich nicht 100% sicher ist etc.
Nuclear Snail Studios das hat wegen Adrenalin kaum wegetan hat er gesagt
