    Just found this guy. I am incredibly impressed by how he did this. Mostly because it’s a step by step video and I LOVE that. Been thinking about making armor for a long time, jus couldn’t find a good video for it. Rather watch and learn instead of learning on my own. Takes a way a lot of risks an failures. I have also just subscribed to this awesome dude an I can not wait to see more like this. Now I jus need to find the utensils an material. Very excited 😊
