Talk about versatility. You not only get some body armor but also the convenience of being able to slap that pan on a fire after you light a car on fire and cook a nice ribeye.

Maybe a non-lethal round?

It's not like she ever used it for anything else.

Now I kind of want to see her waddling around in a suit of armor made entirely from kitchen ware

Doubtful that’d stop a .22.

It would be a shame if the protesters began making their signs out of quarter-inch-thick plywood to stop rubber bullets, forming a tight shield wall to prevent police from singling out and mobbing individual protesters. It would be a shame if the people behind the shield wall held up umbrellas so that tear gas canisters fired over their heads on the front line will be bounced away. It would be a shame if protesters began constructing improvised armor vests out of duct tape, hard-backed books, and ceramic tiles.
It would be a shame if protesters started wearing safety glasses, hard hats, respirators, and gardening gloves, all of which can be found at the same hardware stores as the plywood. It would be a shame if they started using traffic cones (the kind without the hole in the top), upside down buckets, or other improvised lids to contain teargas by placing them over the canisters.
It would be a shame if protesters learned that police scanners are legal to own in the US, allowing them to learn where police are moving, and what routes they intend to take. It would be a shame if they discovered that these scanners can be used to send as well as receive, allowing them to flood the scanner frequencies with noise.
All of this would be a terrible, terrible shame.
**An even worse shame would be to start donating these items to protesters.
It would be a TERRIBLE shame if they also started making these and distributing them.
Use a handheld scroll saw to cut the pieces out, and a blowtorch, sandpaper, or scotch Brite grinding wheel to deburr the edges.
To form them better to fit the body, you can use a heat gun to soften the plastic and make it more pliable, bend it to shape and then cool it rapidly in a storage bin full of water. You can alsop shape them by putting the pieces into a 200 degrees (Fahrenheit) oven for 15 minutes. From there you shape them as rapidly as possible (oven mitts are highlu recommended), and then quench to cool the plastic and set the shape.
Glue foam floor mat to the inside for additional shock absorption and assemble with straps. The original maker used leather, as he works leather as a hobby and generally have some lying around. I used Chicago screws to attach them, and locate to secure the threads, but really the attachment and assembly method isn't a hard line to make these work, so use whatever method you prefer.
You can also get these barrels in black or white (use white to make armor for medics).
*It would be an awful shame if you copied and pasted this and saved the pics to post yourself, so that they couldn't delete the original and all linked posts (again).

If a human skull can't stop a .22lr, neither will a broiling pan.

People don't think a .22 be like it is, but it do.
