Thanks, I can't wait to start this when I move out of my apartment Sent from my SM-G900V

Sorry, I've been away from home for much of the week. Thanks for the info. I attached a photo of the cut pvc sheet. The sheet is 6mm thick, it's not super flexible but could be bent slightly when i hold it. From the attached picture, you can see the factory cut side which is rather smooth...

I just wanted to double check to make sure I'm not getting screwed. I originally ordered the pvc from this company. The brand was called Ex-Cell. I asked for Sintra but they said this was the same thing and priced me at $40. I went to pick it up and they charged me $34,so obviously i didn't...

Yeah everything worked out great. Picked it up today and it was even cheaper than they said, only $34 and that was after tax. The piece was consistent all through and not just pvc on top of foam Sent from my SM-G900V

Thanks. I found a supplier two towns over.. $40 bucks for a 4x8 sheet as well. Sent from my SM-G900V

I found a seller on Ebay which says they are selling Sintra, but i wanted to make sure i was going to get Sintra and not something-like Sintra so i asked the seller if the brand was Sintra or something else. the response i received was this: "Our Sintra/PVC/foam board has a foam board center...

Ok thanks, I think I will buy a cheap one. I'll try not to get burned.. But probably will. With the 6mm sintra is it easy to cut?

Thanks. 6mm Sintra seems good to me. I was looking at those templates, I'm gonna give them a try. I know I had a sample Sintra sheet once which I tried to shape using a hair dryer(for a different project) .. Didn't work too well. Should I invest in a heat gun to curve the sintra and make...

I just searched for it. Looks like an awesome idea. Im gonna look until that further. My only concern is my height and build.. 6'6'' 260 lb.. I wonder if the curves of the can will match my body size. Thanks for the tip!

Your armor looks awesome. I am going to start my first armor build soon and have been researching materials. A member on here suggested using Sintra and I came across your thread. Could you tell me the thickness that you are using? Thanks

Yeah, the gaps would pose a problem. By using the plastic sheets, what would be a good thickness? The reason why I was gonna wrap the metal over the cardboard was to give the armor a thick look to it, otherwise I would have just used the metal itself, Thanks for the suggestion. I looked...

Hey everyone, I am doing some research before jumping into actually building my first Boba Fett after reviewing a lot of posts/sites I see that a lot of people either buy armor from vendors or create from fiberglass. I think that I want to create my own armor rather than purchase it..but if i...
