[@youretheChrist]

This chestplate looks looks it might perhaps sacrifice torso maneuverability

[@DanteYewToob]

I would recommend making separate chest and ab plates that fit over each other like scales for mobility, coated with something like Kevlar and truck bed liner to catch any spalling that might go up between the layers. It’s slightly less protection but you can actually move, kick, sit, roll… fight! Haha

[@DJChesley]

I tried to do this a little over a year ago but I had so much trouble keeping that fiberglass weaving from falling apart! You've got this down to such a science, I really appreciate you making this awesome guide!

[@CrashMakerspace]

Fiberglass is very finicky 😅

[@IdEk5627]

One thing to take note of from my years doing carbon composite parts for Formula sae is that your epoxy is very very important to the strength/fire resistance, etc. of your parts. Choosing the right epoxy with the right strength characteristics is just as important as the built/layering of your parts. This isn't as touched upon and is extremely important. Thats why some carbon fiber parts can deal with high heat and others can't. Also easy thing to remember is thag the longer an epoxy takes to set and cure usually the stronger it is. That why when u go to the store and looked at the 5min epoxy vs the 24hr epoxy, the psi ratings will be higher on the longer cure time epoxy.

[@CrashMakerspace]

I touch on this in the video! It’s why I chose this specific 205 hardener

[@IdEk5627]

@CrashMakerspace you did but not as much emphasis. I think sometimes when we know a lot about a subject we forget that other people may not know completely the details and background of where we are coming from. Most people have no clue about composite structures. I just wanted to emphasize the point further.

[@johnferro7079]

[@ColinNiko]

you could use a 3d printed iron man suit (mk2 loads of free 3d files available) as your base and then have a reasonably light weight bullet proof suit

[@pumpkintosz]

This is pretty cool. It's like a much more tuned and custom version of ZNA Productions armor way back when. I wonder if you could add motorcycle impact foam pads to make the impact more distributed.

[@Installation00]

This is some fantastic work. I'm consistently impressed with your analytical approach to soft and hard armor creation processes. Very exciting work you're doing, and can see pretty huge application for what you're doing. Over on my channel, we're developing real MJOLNIR and ODST armor (as close as is possible with modern technology), and the work you've done here could apply spectacularly well with the ODST Armor. Would you be available at some point to have a chat about some specifics, perhaps even collaborate on something?

[@CrashMakerspace]

Subbed to your channel! I’m always happy to chat with other makers. Have you seen my previous video on the armor I made for stopping the .300WM and large volumes of other rounds? That might give you some more ideas too!

[@IdEk5627]

Also if u want u after u made a 3d model that fits ur chest u can 3d print a positive mold that fills in the space where your chest would be so you don't need a concrete bag. Also when u use the vacuum bag it can keep the shape of the mold and not possibly deflect when under high vacuum pressures.

[@TheRealRomansThirteen]

🙌 I wonder if the dragon skin bpv vest system would would work with fiberglass. Just overlapping hexagons from one vest glued to another. They used ceramic plates but remember even Chinese paper armor was layered.

look up clock angle for fiberglass you will increase the strength of the glass layer by clicking the weave at different angles.

[@mdforbes500]

Wow - this is really cool. I feel like this is the exterior shell of a large suit of power armor with the metal molecular structure underneath it. The big question is, of course, all that ballistic force is transferred into a pressure wave into the body. How could it be dispersed without breaking a person's body? And that is the million dollar question

[@pedrovisgueira]

Amazing video. Keep up

[@delsinhays6421]

try ALON (alumina oxy-nitride) it's a ballistic ceramic that if you polish it right it's see through. or just try Titanium at some point, make sure that the backer for it is a tight woven Kevlar.

[@ItalianAvalanche]

Such a sick build. I watched a bunch of your other videos too and you’re doing awesome work. A few questions: - have you tried polyester resin instead of epoxy? In my research I read that polyester performs better. - have you tried boron ceramic hex tiles? I always thought about the layup process like you did hear and then finishing it off with boron ceramic hex tiles with some kind of urethane between and over top of them to prevent impacts from shattering adjacent tiles. - I may have missed it but what is the nano particle fill you used here?

[@CrashMakerspace]

Yep sure have, the polyester resin wasn't nearly as good with high velocity impacts! Check my Super Armor (recent post and in the Description here too) as it uses B4C along with the steel lattice I developed to be insanely impact resistant.

[@theconqueringenigma]

This is pretty cool, but I'd be more interested in using some of these methods on top of steel plates. Steel is relatively cheap but I've yet to see a decent coating that can actually catch all the spall better than those cheap weekend warrior plates

[@CrashMakerspace]

If you wanted to see my previous vid, that plate stops multiple .300 WM / .556 / .308 / 1oz slugs etc. If looking for a super plate build

[@stevensmutko1408]

You need to decrease the amounts of creases and increase the angles of deflection. That is how you build the best armor. Take a look at armor designed to deflect arrows and start from there.

[@NewYorkInitiative]

Very interesting. Especially to our work.

[@pabloarroyo1023]

You may be able to use a taguchi array or other intelligent experimental design to reduce the growth in combinations you need to try.

[@TheCompleteMental]

What about a flexibility test while wearing it? (How far you can bend forwards, cross your arms, etc) Also, shaping the plates like a medieval cuirass might do some good, since it'll deform away from the body, spread the impact over a wider area, and is more angled especially if it meets at a ridge - a tapul. Though I feel like this would all be more effective in metal, it'd be fascinating to see tested.

[@myth3862]

Question: would increasing the amount of varying angles of weave directions increase strength. For example instead of 90 & 45 , do 60, 30, 15 and so on. 8:10

[@hisham_on_bd]

bro made my dream armor

[@red_sun_sundowner]

could you try this with a more rounded form rather than sculpted to the chest? it might be more effective due to it being able to deflect things more easily

[@000Krim]

[@dermanerdeimiglu6032]

I am really wondering how good this would work in tandem with nanovate technology.

[@prince1lev]

[@mozzy2504]

Are you planning on making a full Batman suit because this is class

[@CrashMakerspace]

Yes, I'll be making the suit with the NP infill and the chest will be the super armor that I just tested a couple weeks back!

[@brettmciver432]

Could you put a layer of rubber at the back seal between it and another layer of rubber some form of non newtonian fluid that goes hard when hit and shatters but is contained within the rubber " bag " so you don't lose any of it? Would be interesting to see what happens there. Another idea is the rubber bag but filled with ball bearings to help absorb the shock. Couple of ideas for ya to test out.

[@makex_se]

Will this Batman suit or Hacksmith's lightsaber be finished first? What an exiting time

[@fyakin4737]

Let´s f***ing go!

[@Doc-Holliday1851]

Instead of 3D prints as the form you could use steel and potentially increase the rating of the armor. It doesn't even have to be all that thick. Just thick enough to begin flattening the bullet before it hits the fiberglass. And then a piece at the back to prevent that bulging from being too severe.

[@CrashMakerspace]

My previous post is the super armor I’m researching. That stops more than even level IV plates. This build here is just for a cheap and easy process tuned for everyday makers!

You are popping off with these god damn. Think you could add a thin layer of the 3D printed lattice to the layup (or the metal print, but I know those are pricy) and see how it improves the chest pieces ability to stop 10mm rounds?

[@CrashMakerspace]

Have you checked out my Super plate that was stopping the .300 Win Mag? It’s the last vid I posted and is able to take magazines of rifle rounds

[@IsaacAllwood]

@CrashMakerspace Yeah I did and it was awesome, just confused why you didn't apply that tech to this plate?

[@BirdheadedScholar868]

I wonder how differently the armor will perform if it mimicked, or took inspiration, from the plate armor of the 16-17 century. At the time, guns were still weak enough that armouring against arquebus shots was still viable, leading to several breastplate designs ( known as munition plate) that can resist the bullets of the time. Mind you the design of the plate did originate from the fashion of the time that attempted to make nobles with a gut look good but still.

[@guyrollf8956]

Cover it in a sheet of PVC, the kind that is used as dripcloth. You can get it at any hardware store. Then put it in the vacuum bag. Then use a squeegee to gently push the air bubbles towards the suction and the vacuum should pull them out. The PVC should peel off much easier than the stuff you used. Just sayin, think about it.🖖😎👍

[@CrashMakerspace]

PVC would make a better back lay than the aluminum foil, I do like the peel ply though for a very uniform epoxy draw

Have you considered turning this into paneling? I know that makes gaps and leads to less protection, but it could offer more mobility
