Re: WTB THINNER Aluminum shields
If you go 8mm (2*4mm) poplar plywood it will be plenty tough for boffer/youth style combat and it will be very light!

Re: Building a leather hardening chamber
I think I will tinker a bit with cardboard, and when I have found a design that works will switch to plywood. Ihave also thought about a hinged design. My biggest concern is uneven heat, especially too much heat in spots. Losthelm, is flashing a metal surfsace for reflection? I am quite proud of my ...

Off-Topic: Know an Counterterror-Unit militaria collector?
