im going to continue with this build with the cardbourd but i have an idea that ive been thinking about fo a while now and i want to get some othe opinions. i have a hand grinder and some sheet metal. i want to make this same thing out of it ill have to give it flaps and use rivets to hold it together. it would take a long time but i think it would be ausome. what do you guys think? should i give it a try?
 
alright just updateing on my results with the bed liner it made it a little stronger but not that muck it wasnt worth buying two cans mabe i will give the metal a try it takes out the staengthening part anyway.
 
k so i started the metal build and let me tell you cuting these kinda sucks its like extreme pepakura but insted of an exacto knife its a high powerd grinder here are some pics for starters

haha ive made stuff out of sheet metal its pretty much the same as pepakura ecept no flaps or glue and just welding lol it takes a little longer than foam or pepakura but it is possible
 
i wish i could weld it but i dont have a welder. yet that is for now i have to rivet it together do you have any pics of your prosses with cutting cleanly and such
 
Not to be rude or anything but if i made a metal armor, i would weld it together, and not use hot glue,

But there is this special glue you mix that will get as hard as the metal.. meh, i suck at describing and english. grate job anyways :D
