That's exactly what I did

Just a quick thought on fiberglass, when I build boats and other things from it we have to sand the cured surface before adding another coat of resin or anything really. The resin makes a waxy film when it cures and needs to be sanded off for proper adhesion of the next layer of resin, paint, gel coat ext. hope this helps

A few things. Using small amounts of 'polyester' resin as used in fibreglass panels made to provide ballistic protection lets some energy be transferred into de-laminating the panels. That is, it's on purpose. Similarly a larger tile will allow more energy to transfer into it [thats what the cracks are] reducing the ability for the projectile to penetrate. Porcelin with the highest wear ratios are ballasticly superior due to being harder. So obviously you have to consider what properties you want, destruction, cost and weight.

IF YOU ASK ME, I'D THROW OUT THE THE CERAMIC, THE MARBLE OR ANY SUCH TYPE OF WEAR MATERIAL THAT COULD MINIMIZE MULTI-HIT CAPABILITY... WELL, I SAY THAT BUT, IF I WERE TRYING TO STOP A 50 BMG ROUND, OR SAY, A LOT OF THEM, LOL... THEN, I'D PROBABLY BRING THEM BACK INTO THE DESIGN BUT, ANYTHING BETWEEN A HANDGUN AND A 416 RIGBY, NAH... DON'T NEED IT! MY SECRET? TI-6AL-V4 @ .0100" THICKNESS... I WISH I COULD'VE AFFORDED AN EVEN THICKER PLATE, LIKE: .0200" THICK FOR EXAMPLE BUT, THAT SHIT AIN'T FLIPPING CHEAP! LOL... NOW, TO BE HONEST, I'VE NEVER TESTED UP TO THE 416 RIGBY BECAUSE, I DON'T KNOW ANYONE WITH THAT MUCH MONEY BUT, 308 WINCHESTER, 7MM REM MAG AND LESSER ROUNDS WERE STOPPED BY THIS LAMINATE ARMOR WITHOUT ANY FUSS! WITH THE AFORE MENTIONED RIFLES DELIVERING A BOX EACH AT JUST 10 YARDS! EACH RIFLE TEST GETTING IT'S OWN PLATE... SO, THEY'LL TAKE AT LEAST 20 ROUNDS OF SOME REALLY HOT, MEAN LEAD! ESPECIALLY THAT 7MM MAG.. TOOK THREE PEOPLE TO PUT 20 ROUNDS ON TARGET! AND THAT CONCLUDED OUR DAY, just that one test.. HAHAha-ouch! DETAILS: USE 5 PLATES OF TITANIUM,. ONE IN FRONT COATED WITH AN ANTI-SPALL COATING ( TRUCK BED LINER, 1/4' THICK ) 1 OUT BACK & THE THREE REMAINING IN THE CENTER, SEPARATED BY YOUR CHOICE OF WOVEN CLOTH PRE-LAMINATED PANELS, 1/8" THICK PER PANEL, YOU WILL NEED 4 PANELS. YOU CAN USE FIBERGLASS, KEVLAR, CARBON FIBER, & EVEN DENIM, ETC.. STACK THEM AP;PRIOPRIATELY AND GLUE TOGETHER WITH WHATEVER YOU WANT.. I USED GORILLA GLUE... ITS A LITTLE FOAMING AND GOES EVERYWHERE WHEN YOU PUT THE CLAMPS ON FOR THE FINALE SQUEEZE BUT, IT HOLDS TOGETHER NICELY, EVEN AFTER SEVERAL HITS! ONE SOME OF THE TEST PLATES, I USED GAFFER TAPE AROUND THE EDGES SO THAT WHEN THEY FINALLY DELAMINATED, THEY WOULDN'T JUST COMPLETELY FALL APART.. THAT HELPED A BUNCH! HOWEVER, ONLY GLUE THE EDGES WHERE THEY CONNECT TO THE FRONT AND REAR PLATE, NOT ON THE SIDES OR THE CENTER OF THE TAPE... IT'LL SHATTER! THEN YOU WOULD'VE DONE ALL THAT FOR NOTHING... TRUST ME, I LEARN EVERYTHING THE HARD WAY SO, IT DOESN'T HELP. ...NO SIR! WHEN I STARTED DOING THESE PANELS, I STARTED WITH THE OVER-BOARD, OVER THE TOP 5 PLATES OF TITYANIUM AND THEY STOOD UP AGAINST 5.56 & 7.62X39 WITH NO TROUBLE, AT ALL... & ON UP TO THE 7MM REM MAG.. IN FACT, WHEN TESTING WITH THE 5.56 OR THE AK, JUST GO AHEAD AND SEND ALL THE MAGAZINES DOWN RANGE! LOL, WE HAD THREE PER RIFLE... SO.. IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN THAT, I MAKE NO CLAIMS TO IT HOLDING UP ...NOT BEYOND 90 ROUNDS, LMAO! ... BUT DEFINITELY CAPABLE PLATES, NONE-THE-LESS! BUT NOT CHEAP TO BUILD, NOPE! THE NEXT STEP WAS TO SEE JUST HOW DOWN SIZING COULD HELP! REDUCING COST AND BUILD TIME BECAME A HIGHER PRIORITY AND WE WANTED TO TRY BOOSTING EFFICIENCY BY SHEDDING SOME UNWANTED WEIGHT & ELBOW GREASE... AND BURN LESS MONEY... BECAUSE THAT WAS DRYING UP QUICKLY TOO ( I WISH I COULD GET MY BIG ASS BELLY TO DO THAT JUST AS EASILY BUT, I DIGRESS... ) I WENT WITH JUST THREE TITANIUM PLATES WITH TWO 1/4" CLOSED CELL FOAM SEPARATER SHEETS, LIKE CRAFT FOAM FOR KID PROJECTS IN BETWEEN THE TITANIUM, LAMINATED WITH GORILLA GLUE AND SPRAYED WITH A SPALL COATING UP FRONT, 1/8" THICK TO START... AND THAT COMBINATION WOULD STOP PISTOL ROUNDS WITH EASE! 9MM, 45 ACP, 40 S&W, 357 SIG,10MM, 357 MAG - HOT ONES TOO, FROM UNDERWOOD AMMO! UNFORTUNATELY, NO ONE HAD A 44 MAG TO TEST THE THREE PLATE VERSION AT THE TIME... THEN THE 3 PLATE VERSION EVENTUALLY RECEIVED AN UPGRADE WITH SWAPPING OUT THE ARTS AND CRAFT SCHOOL SUPPLIES WITH RIGID MARINE GRADE FOAM BOARD AND THAT WORKED OUT SWIMMINGLY! THE DAMN PLATE WOULD ACTUALLY FLOAT IN THE POOL... WHICH WAS SUPER COOL! NOW, IT WOULDN'T SUPPORT ANY ADDITIONAL WEIGHT & KEEP IT AFLOAT BUT, IT WAS STILL TRICK AS SHIT TO SEE ACTUAL ARMOR FLOATING, YA KNOW? HOWEVER, IF SOMEONE WERE TO USE THIS SET UP IN A PLATE CARRIER & ON A BOAT FOR PERSONAL PROTECTION... AND FELL OVERBOARD FOR WHATEVER REASON, IT WOULDN'T DRAG THEM STRAIGHT TO THE BOTTOM OR HAVE'EM SCRAMBLING FOR THE RELEASE BUCKLES EITHER! PLATE THICKNESS WAS ROUGHLY 1.25" WITH AN 1/8" SPALL COATING SO, IT COULD FIT MOST CARRIERS. BUT 5.56, 7.62X39 WERE ABLE TO GET THE TIP OF THE PROJECTILE THROUGH THE BACKING PLATE BY A 1/4" ON THE 5.56 AND ABOUT 1/16" FOR THE AK ROUND, BOTH LODGING IN PLACE! BOTH WERE STANDARD BALL AMMO AT STANDARD PRESSURES. NEGATING ANY CHANCE AT AN NIJ LEVEL 3 RATING... DAMN IT! I WISH I COULD POST PICS BUT... IT IS WHAT IT IS! GOD BLESS AND STAY FREE!

Fiberglass is old technology what a lot of governments have moved away from (due to the dangers of particles when hit), cracking, and lower performance - It was what's used in helicopter crew armour as a spall shield (look up "Vietnam chicken plate"), as well as early composite vehicle armour (Land Rover Snatch). You might want to look into buying old police/military vests and salvaging the kevlar instead, sometimes you can find a pile for dirt cheap from companies that does disposal of surplus/outdated/out-of-warranty equipment for the government. Proper ceramic mosaic tiles aren't "$100" each. It's usually $100 per batch (usually just enough to make 1 sapi plate). Nevertheless expensive unless you arrange to do it in bulk.

i use blue painters tape on my cut lines, and keep half of the tape on the edges until im ready to use the cloth. perfecly straight cuts, and no fiber pulling or warping.

Thanks for the information on armor, im craftsman that makes stuff in my garage with scrap. I'm the only person in school ho can actually understands armor, ballistics, and armored vehicles. It is nice to see people who are interested in subjects such as weaponry. It's hard to test and make armor and other things like weapon since I'm only 1years old.

as an autistic person I can tell you, most people don't. refreshing that you do.

Great job, Young Man. I'm impressed. Think about an ultra-thin layer of aluminum, aggressive adhesive, another ultra thin layer of aluminum, adhesive, your BR tile, then mount to your plate.

Well the way a glass (including ceramic, it's a type of glass) dissipates kinetic energy, is by spreading it out across it's surface area, until the whole thing shatters. So, the smaller the glass (ceramic) plates are, the less energy they can dissipate. You end up having to weigh the pros & cons of different sized pieces. Larger pieces dissipate more energy. Smaller pieces mean less area compromised by being hit. US car windshields (required to be 2 panes of glass laminated together with a flexible bonding material, to keep occupants in, and deer out), are broad enough to effectively dissipate energy nearly equal level 2 body armor, but only ONE time. Also it helps to have your fiber weave material arranged with alternating angles, like + and x orientations (this wastes material when cutting from the cloth, but it helps). Two main approaches are very hard material (but brittle) on very strong material (not brittle). Or a very tough, but lightweight & flexible matarial ("catches" projectile). Mostly ceramic is used on armored vehicles to resist "active heating" from projectiles with explosives in them (due to ceramic's high temperature resistance). The fact that it is _also_ a type of glass, means it can achieve double-duty as a form of kinetic energy dissipation. So it's ideal in tanks. But against small arms fire, I don't know if ceramic is ideal or not. But it doesn't make a large amount of dangerous "glass dust" compared to other types of glass, so it is at least easier to breath while being shot at. If I were designing an armor for a light vehicle... I'd go with something which is both hard and strong (like AR500) for the exterior layer. There is a form of AR500 which has a metalic glass seared onto it's out-facing surface, this is very very (very) durable. So durable that it's not even practical to smooth the outer surface. Then under that, ceramic tiles to dissipate energy. Then aluminum structure (mounting, framing, chasis), And lastly a kevlar blanket on the inside which is mounted only by edge grommets, so that it can flex & stretch when pushed on by bullet fragments or spalling. For windows, several layers of tiled tempered glass embeded in a mono-block of polycarbonate. Alternatively though, there's something to be said for just using thicker steel for armor, and letting the armor do double duty as the vehicle's chasis. Interestingly, soil (sand or dirt) is amazingly bullet resistant. I think there would be some advantages to a sort of blanket of co-joined sandbags. Would be light to transport to a location, and fill with 'armor' on location. Easy to apply/remove. Think "scale-mail" but made of sandbags which attach to a robust webbing. A hidden benefit would be that this would also have amazing RCS and thermal imaging qualities. And if you deliberately did a sloppy job while filling the bags, it would blend in with the local dirt hues. Alternatively if you were tidy and used matte black sandbags, it would be hard to laser designate/rangefind. It would be shockingly "stealthy". Even has excellent radiological qualities. Also, it would be as cheap as dirt. It wouldn't take much to apply grommet pegs to the exterior of a light vehicle to hold it in place. It would effectively be self-healing even, not to mention spalling-proof. To shoot through it you'd need at least .50 BMG, and that wouldn't "go through" exactly (not with any effective energy left), it would just burst individual sandbags, and eventually eat the armor away. It's also a very DIY-friendly concept. So one of the best light vehicle armors there is (in my opinion) would be burlap, rope, and a small shovel.

Fantastic job dude!!!

2 small tips. Use nylon fibres evenly mixed into the silicon for added strength, and use a spall liner on the rear. High wear strength carpet would do at a pinch, and that could be improved a little too with a hard plastic/soft plastic layer between the steel and carpet|! :)

Hi prior to making your cuts, try placing painters tape on both sides of your cut line (on both sides of the fiberglass).leave about 1/2 inch between the pieces of the painters tape. wipe a thin film of silicone on both sides of the fiberglass. When dry make your cuts and remove the tape.

You have to shift the cloth if you just fold it your stacking the seems so bullet finds a slot if you rotate or use chopped cloth unwoven but it you fold woven cloth you are creating a channel it's able to follow!! Makes a huge difference in amount of layers needed!!!

Nagyon jo lett a videó! ;)

The bigger the tile the more kinetic energy it can absorb but the less shots you can get out of it. To me I'd try for a tile about a quarter of the size of the panel.

Good video

There's a leopard 1 tank in a park near me. Still has 25mm thick ballistic skirts on it.

Maybe looking into two part silicones makes your life a bit easyer. You can buy some that are quite liquid so they flow between the tiles. Also the regular silicone doesn't cure very deep, just the surfaces that is contatct with air.

I made plates like this... Took them into my back bedroom and shot one from about 10 feet away. I still have it and the 9mm round is still stuck in it and did not go through. It was a hydroshock to.

If you bolt the steel plate layers together, it will increase the bulletproofing capabilities of the tile

Smaller tiles make it better to withstand multiple shots but larger tiles can absorb more energy. So smaller tiles can take more shots but those have to be from smaller projectiles while large tiles can take fewer shots but from bigger projectiles. The ceramic layer is key in composite armour for converting kinetic energy into the energy needed to crack/break chemical bonds of the parts that keep ceramics together.

I feel the ceramic should be enclosed in the fiberglass to lower spalling

where did you buy the fiber glass ? any place for the cheapest price ?

Grinding that epoxy and inhaling the smoke is infinitely more dangerous than the fiberglass dust. It can be lethal. Friend of mine once just collapsed to anaphylactic shock after cutting cured epoxy. he wasn't allergic or anything to it. But he survived because workmate was fast and ambulance was fast there. But now he cannot be in vicinity of raw or cut epoxy. He will get the shock immediatelly.

No, CF just isn't mechanically suitable. You don't need a special vacuum pump, i have a hand pump i use to finish pulling vacuum through the 8 cent check valve, normal vacuum cleaner to pull the majority of the air out first though. Just come back every 15 minutes or so and give it a pump in case you've had some gas out or what not, but you should never have a vacuum leak. The pumps for brake bleeding are perfectly suitable, though the one I bought came with all sorts of adapters. Edit: Also you might be surprised how cheap the "consumables" like the plastic and the sealant for the bags are.

BTW, some sky-high priced item are sold on bucks, like 100$/1kg.

How many layers on fiberglass?

I did a little research on Alibaba, aluminum oxide plates are dirt cheap, I think they can do better than just normal mosaics, and if you want go for full nuts, those silicon carbide plates' price are not their actual price, you will need to contact the dealer for actual price.

One more thing.. . Think of a tank and how it has evolved since World War II. The Russians and soon after the Germans realized that sloping armor would cause projectiles to Ricochet or bounce off. Who says someone couldn't with imagination and patience somemade at home or in a shop some sort of armor that is light but also has angular portions where vital organs are. I can almost guarantee you would have significant protection. In my mind the 223 depending on the angle of the shot would either bounce off or take some of the muzzle energy away from the target area. The only major problem I can see is different angles enemy fire would come from so a solution would be necessary course a 90-degree angled shot would have the same effect as yours only it would hit a void so a slightly different design could be a thought like small pyramid-shaped projections from the armor. I can almost without a doubt say that this type would obviously have a cost/benefit coefficient and probably would not be able to be created in mass production but who knows in this day and age. When you're a tinkerer overtime you gain knowledge on what works and what doesn't and you obviously have a lot of knowledge and give many people ideas. I have attempted to make some of your projects, some of them with success and others with complete and utter failure but that's how you learn. I'm sure this sort of armor would not be well-received with military personnel because of the extra weight because if you were to flatten out these plates the patterns of small pyramid-shaped projections would add more surface area thus more weight. But I am very confident that if it works on tanks then scaled-down there would be no reason that it couldn't be used by the public if(armageton) was to come to fruition the resources and tools were available to people which they are. Just imagine what your adversary would think. I absolutely think that's a little bit optimistic but it sure is fun to think about it and get a few Chuckles

Compositions provides multiple hardness, density and mass that lessens the projectile's energy each material it goes through. It works more efficiently rather than just one material also it may reduce the weight or material application depending on the type of materials used in the armor composition.
