Fake/Training plates for plate carriers

[dongtheimpaler]

Just received a pair of Team Wendy training plates. Here's a couple pics comparing them to the Toysoldier swimmer plates I was using before. Obviously, the Team Wendy ones are much much thicker and heavier.

Nice shit man. How do they feel in the PC?

[dongtheimpaler]

They feel pretty good. The weight difference is very significant though especially when holding it, which is nice for that realism factor. I tried them in both my 6094 and CPC and it's less noticeable in the CPC.

[Danke]

Going to come in way, way, way under Team Wendy prices.

OK it's summer now.

Post up, discussion is active on Arnies Airsoft also.

Pent up demand = $$$$$$ if you can churn them out.

Closed foam-laser cut rock!

My next pair of plate will be molded cast alluminium. A little project I'm preparing.
I just need a few more things so I can start.

Rigidity, curvature and solid feel of a real plate, but with a fraction of the real weight.

The alluminium part will be much thinner, but I'll "boost" it with a layer of foam I think. I'll see when my prototype is done.
