Armor Plated

So, here is my plan. I have ALOT of metal, thin to thick, in which I can no longer use for anything that is under stress. So, I have decided I am going to give a go and make a suit with metal (and detail it the whole way, of course). I think a good plan to start would be to transfer the details from the papukura (SP?) onto thin sheets of aluminum and make a base model from that easy to fold, some strength). I understand this is probably one of the hardest routes to do something like this, but I have the time and Im bored.
Any ideas would be great, as long as they arnt saying "go molding or paper, dont use metal". I already expect the suit to weigh in around 40+ lbs, but other than running it over with a steamroller, it wont be damaged.
Oh and good luck to everyone doing their projects, I wish you fast dries and first tries.
