    The thing with warhammers and fighting clubs against shields is, your enemy gets his weapon stuck in your shield, you now have a save handle to remove his weapon from your enemy. So when doing medieval combat or stuff you will usually avoid hitting a shield and aim for bodyparts that are covered in plates as thornlike structures will more easily remove from punctured plate metal than wood or in this case plastics.

  • @Blalack77

    Seems like a rolling pin or maybe a piece of metal laid over it under a weight could have worked to flatten and stretch it. That stuff looks pretty cool.. I could see a lot of uses for it. That club looks like the one the dude had in Last of the Mohicans.

      Gun stock war clubs are really really cool, and despite the name, no one is really sure if they are based off a musket stock which they do resemble, or if they are a coincidental design as even the oldest ones they have found dont have any of the drilling or tapping holes you would find in a repurposed musket stock.

    @cerealguy6359 2 роки тому +1

    I love this. More accurately the shield aswell. Shields were typically hardened wood with metal lining to help the shields shape. They were however closer to around an extra half inch of thickness. However shields typically had the handles towards the side with padding to help your forearm brace against the blows. Bucklers however were small metal shields with wood handles directly in the middle for hand maneuvers.
    No shaming for not making historically accurate and instead saying how absolutely awesome this stuff is, and if shaped and molded would be stronger than hard wood shields, but not as strong as full metal shields, with the off set being the light weight of the plastic compared to the full heavy metal shields that required your full body to lift. Super cool as always

  • @CeeJayThe13th
    @CeeJayThe13th 2 роки тому +4

    Just want to point out that the shield is being held static during testing but if it was being used in "battle" your arm would be acting like a shock absorber and would make it much less likely for anything to actually penetrate the shield. You'd also have the ability to move it and help deflect blows.

      Sanding it was interesting though. The friction of the sandpaper heated it up enough that it kind of melted, but it still smoothed out the bumps. So the sanding was more equivalent to adding water to clay instead of actually removing rough areas.

    Late to the party, but have to suggestions.. Making a bow out of the beads would be very interesting. And also a slingshot. In fact you could probably make round marble sized 'pellets' for the slingshot out of the same stuff. Again making this product something that every survivalist should have in his bag. Great thing is if you make a mistake... you just reheat it up again. I've worked with these beads in the years past for making fake teeth. The secret in using them is to knead (like bread) continually folding and getting the air out of whatever your creating. The trapped air is going to be the weakest part of whatever you create. Love your channel.

    Tyler, I’ve seen many videos where people have commented regarding your safety. And I’m not really one to comment. But this video made me genuinely concerned for your safety. You took a wish spring loaded dart shooter, and aimed it right at your face/eyes with no safety protection, because it ACCIDENTALLY DISCHARGED 2 DARTS INSTEAD OF ONE. On top of all the other sharp objects Ricocheting off the shield. Please wear safety protection. We don’t want to see you get hurt.

    I just found your channel 2-3 days ago. After seeing multiple videos where you handle things like this as well as hot food from time to time, you NEED a pair of cilicone gloves. So good for handling hot material with acceptable (not great) dexterity

  • @CosmicCreationsOG
    @CosmicCreationsOG 2 роки тому +10

    Would possibly like to see some additional safety measures on some of these torture tests lol. Maybe bring the protective glasses out a little earlier for when you're launching projectiles at unfamiliar surfaces or put on some gloves when stabbing into random things in case your hand slips. You also almost pointed a loaded dart gun directly at your face. I'm sure you can get away with some of these things without too much worry, but try to set a good example for your younger audience (I don't have kids or anything but I also don't want children potentially getting hurt by not taking these things into consideration if they decide to try something stupid). Nonetheless, great video as always 👍

    You should have used a torch on the front afterwards to make it look untouched. See if it would really work after a battle. I would think it would get stronger with each refacing.

    Small suggestion, would live to see a longer video of you making an armor set out of that stuff, like a chest plate /helmet 👀 and a sword that you sharpen add like a metal mesh to the planting and boom. Easy pz armor set

  • @blue_jm

    yeah, using gloves kneading hot plastic is SO overrated. Or wear eye protection when shooting sharp metal projectiles. Tyler please take some safety precautions.

  • @Hexmonkey

    You should’ve used the last bag you had leftover to round the front of the shield. Would help in deflecting projectiles.

    Awesome video but can I suggest a redo? This time make it thicker in the center and rounded. Shields were also used to repel thus is why the concave. Also, there are 2 handles. One for forearm stability and one for hand grasping.

  • @branedo5743

    Armor like thick leather chest piece with that plastic layed out on top of it as a added layer perhaps between both add some sort of impact layer protection either gel or other

  • @t2e094
    @t2e094 2 роки тому +1

    You didn't take into account the fact that if you were holding the shield your arm would act as a shock absorber and the penetration wouldn't be as much so its actually even more effective! Great video though, your content in top notch.

    I love Instamorph - been using it for nearly 10 years. Aside from general fixes and projects around the house, I always have some with my camping equipment and a few strips in my wallet. A lighter can be all you need to heat up a small amount and make all sorts of minor repairs in a pinch.

  • @mariestarlight
    @mariestarlight 2 роки тому

    So I'd suggest if you wanted to make a really nice surface for it like a buckler, with a nice rounded outside, you could start by making a mold out of wood, just take a thick slab of wood or several 4x4's glued together and carve out negative space for where the shield would go, then just get a rolling pin and mostly make the plastic the way you did previously and then press it into the wood mold to dry. That way you could make any shape you wanted. Shields are rounded that way so projectiles and knives glance off, so it'd be a more effective finished product. And likely it would dry out more even.

  • @Bookittyf

    I don’t know if anybody has suggested this, but next time while working with this stuff you might want to use silicone gloves, you use them to take stuff out of the oven on Amazon, might work to use while molding this stuff, so you don’t burn your hands LOL fun video thx!!

  • @jjhack3r
    @jjhack3r 2 роки тому +1

    If you were holding it, I don’t think it would get penetrated as easily because the cinder blocks provide unrealistic resistance. You and your arm would give in under attack and wouldn’t allow as much back pressure, at least for the melee weapons.
