>>64647350I do own medieval suit of armor but as >>64648100 states, my round belly won't let me, although I could make an attempt also what the fuck is this new captcha
>>64648616>weeb>fatYou don't have to do the meme, you know
>>64648148none of this is pre-gunpowder.they used cannon at Crecy in 1346the real meta is realizing plate armor and firearms developed concurrently because the ability to produce large amounts of high quality metal economically is the bottleneck for both of those things.
>>64648100Armor can and should be tailored to fit the body.
I have a stahlhelm but unfortunately I can't seem to find a full set of ww2 SS plate armor or even any references to it anywhere, can/k/ help me find some?

How much are these (purchase price, a genuine antique)
With modern technologies, could we make a custom fit set of armor cheaply/quickly? Like if you had all the measurements and an old school guy who designed it, and just cut out pieces of steel, bent them/treated, and spot welded?
>>64662762It'd be possible to make factory made suits of armour that fit you fine enough. Back during the late middle ages / early modern period, metal armour actually became very affordable to the common soldier through large scale production of demiarmor and cuirasses.The huge price comes from having it be made to order by a tailor specifically to your measurements.
>>64662762>>64662826Depends on the quality of the materials. Maybe stamp or press moulding would help.
>>64659564>ask the fetish shop if they also have gear in teen sizes>they hang up
>>64662762There's lots of metal processing equipment. Presses, bending machines, CNCs, etc. Mass-producing adjustable armor should be easy if there were demand.Making 100% custom fits might need some development. I guess sintering some single-use negatives?
