You should try making foamCrete it’s a type of concrete that is really light it floats on water that might stop bullets it’s made by using soap suds and concrete together which puts a lot of air bubbles in it so it is lighter and stronger than regular concrete supposedly.

Just discovered you, love your stuff thus far, and help everything has been going well for you. I really liked your ceramic ball armor, and hope that gets more testing. Can’t wait for your next vid.

Removing that reinforcing bar at the lower end of the door will compromise side impact safety unless one is up armoring with AR500 panels. "Soft" armor will not protect you from a side impact collision.

True American father son day shooting for science 😂

There is a youtuber called nilesred or something. He managed to chemically harden glass using a molten potassium nitrate bath. You may use chemically hardened glass marbles.

Excellent data, thank you for sharing this.

Those plates are thicker than any I have ever seen

it's been 84 years

Where did you go?

Andrew Tate before social media

Indium/Tin is a very easy to cast alloy with high stiffness and record setting tan-delta

I think the HDPE is too thick to be practical for body armor, but might be useful as a composite component layered with other materials that can absorb and disperse the bullet's energy over a larger area. Used tire rubber would be good for spreading out energy, but you'd probably want something like a layer of hard and resilient metal ahead of it to deform the bullet as wide as possible first, and several layers of resin-bonded Dyneema, Kevlar, or other high tensile strength synthetics with the weaves going in different directions somewhere in the mix. Changing forward motion to lateral motion is the trick. Anything that can repurpose what we normally regard as trash would be wonderful. Have you tried anything with PETE plastic, which is cross laminated to hold the pressure of carbonated drinks? I don't think HDPE can even do that.

Nice 🇦🇺🦘

Really cool, great work as always! Out of curiosity did you test it with any small calibre firearms? Eventually adding the some sloped/pointy/angles to let the bullet (or axe of sort) partially dodge and swing by

But the heat from the bullet lets it slip through enough. Compression slows down more so that the heat doesn't melt the plastic it's piercing

When “breaking bad” meet “shooter”; jokes aside, that was most interesting, thanks for sharing it

That was some great work. Your pdf is truly well done and exhaustive, a fine job, bravo. if I may ask, did you ever tested polycarbonate sheets?

Commercial roll of shrink wrap, wrapped around various other materials? Stainless steel plate or screen. Fiberglass/shrink wrap/ceramic layers.

Has anyone seen phenolic laminate used for this?

I'm excited for the recent identification of pGEL (Talin proteins arranged to form an aerogel.) Some research papers found that pGEL can absorb multiple, supersonic projectiles without the back face deformation or structural damage that ceramic/steel/HDPE armors suffer. Whats *really* cool is that the pGEL converts kinetic energy from impacts to thermal energy. The Talin pGEL actually converts a lethal kinetic force to heat energy. How neat is that? 😊

You're at the bleeding edge, mate. If you're interested in ballistic-gels look up Talin protein. The University of Kent has found that gels comprised of Talin (a human endogenous protein) can disperse the energy of high-velocity projectiles The University of

12 part series?! You really milking this thing huh smdh

What if this was casted/poured over an ar500 plate?

Woven hdpe/uhmwetc…woven🤙🏻

Your bullet proof glass experiments show that the bullet won't get you, the glass flying into your eyes will 😂.

If you were using these for a helmet, why bother with gluing them?

Check this out ruff! LOL Hey man, what are the approximate costs for the materials? Or was it mentioned in the video?

What about hdpe cutting boards? Could they be heated up and moulded like real plates?

I would like to see this up against some common rounds... 9mm / 00 buck / 5.56 etc. It would certainly grab some more attention.

Love improvising... Keep up the good work mister. I am in the middle of building a ballistic shield for a friend of mine that wants it for his 'battle' vehicle. I am using a full size IPSC regulation AR 500 gong. It's good so far! Here is what he's getting. Ambidextrous magnetic grip Left and right-side long gun shield rest 3x mini-Wi-Fi cameras and 1x ballistic glass (might not add the glass) Fully padded and rubberized of course!

Why not just use a HDPE kitchen cutting board? Well, actually, just came across this video where somebody sort of did something like that, and it didn't work very well: ua-cam.com/video/ios2jb9wtTs/v-deo.html The lack of annealing may have been a factor, but he also talks about how real HDPE armor usually uses multiple thin sheets rather than solid precast boards. So, I think you may have actually already annealed the HDPE by melting and slowly cooling the recycled milk jug HDPE.

milk jugs are either PP or LDPE not HDPE and definitely not UHMWPE... the materials used makes a BIG f'ng difference

You should try completely wrapping the plate in fiberglass

Have you used vacuum bagging to reduce weight ? Super easy to do. Check out Easy Composites Ltd LTD UA-cam channel. Lots of great tutorials on composite layup and molding. I see you have a large sheet of uhmwpe but if you want supplies that are a more common or main stream items try the thin uhmwpe cutting boards available at many restaurant supply stores that are in every city. ( probably most Home Depots as well but HD is always expensive)

to be clear this is unreinforced PC?

For the radiator you can use dual electric fans and a scoop on the hood, with inner shroud. The electric fans can pull air in with its own shroud

Vsauce of balistics

I know it would be heavy, but have you considered adhering the plates with polyurea instead of resin? Those polyurea coatings are damn near bulletproof on their own and will definitely hold the plates in place while also preventing spalling.

Wood backing polycarbonate plates it´s not good for an adequate test...

Bro, i watched ur videos many times, really love what u are doing. I always wandered if spaced armor works as body protection. Thats a good idea for you i guess - try using porcelain plate then 20-30layers of laminated nylon then again porcelain and again 30 more layers of nylon. It works great on vehicles. I would really love to watch if you try this out. Wish you all the best from Israel!

Don’t worry about the weight you could always drive it in tow/haul

Please make more videos

Congratulations 🎉🎊🍾 a new Baby! Sleepless nights and diapers. My favorites.

3:40 cylinders with domed tops??? So theyre bullet shaped??? Ironic.

Great video. Very thorough testing. 👍 Try porcelain tetrahedron media. Another test would be alternating layers of kevlar, carbon fiber and or fiberglass.

Waiting on this car to be finished cant wait. Where is it at?

😊❤ RADIATOR DOES NOT HAVE TO MOVE, AIR CAN FLOW DOWNWARDS

Can I buy a shield from you?

In the factory we BEND lexan polycarbonate in press brake machines to get 90 degree corners. Lexan is also the profuct used for making bullet resistant security windows.
