I Love this piece David. I am working on it currently and found folding the edge seam over by using my vise went very well. My seamer tool kept popping off the piece so I tried the vise to clamp and bend and it worked very well. Just in case anyone else is having the seamer issue or doesn't have the tool.

For some of the smker dyes I use push rods from an engine, in the engine they sit on your lifter and the lifter sits on the cam lobes, then the top of the push rod sits under your rockers, the beauty of them is they are balled on either end and a nice shiny smooth finish. The push rod is a tube so it has a hole running from the top ball to the bottom ball and this let's the oil flow through the push rod. I solder the hole up in the ends then file and sand paper to round it to a nice finish. They are reasonably long depending on the engine so I cut mine in half to make them easier to use. Any engine builder or second hand parts dealer well have these just laying around to be thrown out. I had some in my workshop but I'm sure if you asked for some and explained what you were going to use them for you would most like get a handful for free. They will be oily but spray on some degreaser and through the hole in the middle then air gun them with your air compressor and dry them off with a rag, then you have some cheap if not free, small forming tools...... Hope this helps someone..... Please delete if not wanted

I have to say, this is simply beautiful. Metal is my favorite material to work with, because it doesn´t splinter, break or rip easily, but all I have ever succeeded in, is to create a little dull copper-knife. Maybe if I have the time, I´ll try this out, it looks certainly more doable than the gauntlet of this design^^ (which by the way was impressive). So my best regards and please don´t stop making these beautys. (Also please excuse any mistakes, english is not my native language)

@DavidGuyton
@DavidGuyton 9 жыл бұрын
haha rabbit fur. Yes actually I write that out in the instructions with the template. I intended to glue fleece to the inside of it, but when I had finished, I realized I had none left. All of the rivets are hammered down very flat in the inside, so I can't feel any of them, but some sort of fabric (or fur!) would be far more comfortable than the cold hard metal of the vambrace.

@DavidGuyton

Brass is hard to find in larger sizes. I usually have to go to eBay. For small pieces you can get it in hobby stores. Thickness depends on what you wanna do with the design. The thinner it is, the more details you can get, but it's not as strong. Thicker means harder to work. Middle ground would be like 22 gauge

@DavidGuyton
@DavidGuyton 7 жыл бұрын
the pieces should all print to scale. If you are having one of the pages printing an image at the wrong size, it's likely an issue with your printer. Check your printer settings to see if any of them will fix the issue. The lower piece may not line up perfectly with the edges of the upper piece, but it should be close enough to where you can do some trimming on the grinder to make them line up perfectly.

bannahead75 All of my designs are relatively simple EXCEPT the Iron Man one. I would not suggest that one to a beginner because it's made to be very precise. I think the easiest gauntlet is either the Version 2, or the Demon Hand. The Demon Hand has quite a bit of shaping on the knuckles though, so you might take that into account before picking one. If you want to just get a feel for how to shape metal and test your skills, you can always start with the Dragon Rider Ring. That requires a very small amount of metal too, saving you money.

This process is a more simple way of armoring. I don't do any sort of heat treating because I have no purpose for hardened armor, and many of my viewers are younger, and I wouldn't want them burning down mom and dad's house trying to replicate what I am doing in a video. That being said, nothing is stopping you from hardening your own armor, and my designs will certainly work for hardened armor, as opposed to the more "show piece" or costume armor that you see me making in the videos. I am no expert in heat treatment though, so I have little info for you. There are videos on how to do this online. Check out Eric Dube's channel to get you started

I'm afraid the Winter Soldier arm is too complex for me. If I were able to build it, I don't think I would be able to move in it.

A little too light of a gauge for me, looking to make functional armour, and if your 22g bracer took a good hit it wouldnt be so pretty anymore. you can cut 18 gauge steel with hand snips, I do it all the time at work, but thats Galvanised, dont know how different stainless is to cut. Very nice brass work though

stainless is much, much harder. 20ga stainless is a nightmare to cut by hand. 18ga stainless is not possible to cut by hand. You have to remember that I do this to show others how to make this stuff. There is nothing prohibiting you from using thicker steel, or any material at all, for that matter.

Thanks for the info wasnt aware Stainless was harder to cut. 18gauge Galvanized steel is the thickest i cut at work doing Cladding, Trying to get into SCA heavy combat and want to make my own armour, 20 gauge for anything in the sca is just too light for the full contact combat

"I think it's French for surrender" Well, I'm French and offended :'( (Nah I actually laughed) Repoussé is For "push away" (Different from just "Push") It means to push an opposing force away. In the military "Repousser un ennemi" means to drive the ennemy away, (crushing the ennemy so hard that he will fall back) in other words, it's the opposite of Surrender. :D

Dude... I would sell you my soul for you to make me an authentic Roman, Licora Segmentata.. What would you charge for that in all seriousness?
@DavidGuyton
@DavidGuyton 6 жыл бұрын
well, less than your soul, but probably more than you'd be willing to pay haha. I don't do commissions because I am too slow to make it lucrative for me, and still affordable for a customer. I haven't done lorica segmentata yet but I have it on my list and will be doing it fairly soon. Until I give it a try I couldn't even begin to quote a price because I don't know how difficult it is yet. But like I said, I don't really do commissions.

Hey thanks for the reply man! I get it, you would have to end up charging a huge amount just to equal maybe min. wage for the hours you put in.. Damn, I wish I could find someway to buy a segmentata without going online and not knowing if I'm getting a cheap Indian, tin reproduction! How hard would it be to make? I'm going to welding school this summer and figure maybe down the road it might be in my skill set. Would you recommend a 16-18 gauge, high carbon steel for the bands and plates? Cheers man, love the videos..

I've heard armorers say it's one of the easier armor builds.. Makes sense being some of the earliest plate armor. But damn, the coolest looking!

16 or 18, yes. But I don't have anything that will cut 16 (very well, anyway), so I don't use it often. When I do it it will likely be 18 but we shall see. I do have a pretty large sheet of 16 I need to use for something. I will say (no promises here) that when I get around to building it, it's unlikely I will actually keep it. I am kind of running out of room for all the stuff I build, so I will probably sell it or give it away in a contest or something.
