I snatched some of the plastic packing banding from a handy nearby source, and that works great for diamond plate. I have some standard sheet styrene for do-it-yerself armor plating. I'd like some armor plating with holes - not necessarily bullet holes (I have a pin vice and can make my own), but holes for vision and such. I've seen some sheets with a lot of small holes in nice, neat rows, but I don't know where to get any.

Any ideas?

Tear some old speaker boxes apart.
They got it as faceplate

Hey Thornhammer - welcome to the forums!! Sorry I can't be of help on this one but let us know what you do discover. Thanks.

I use paper for the hole punched metal. My girlfriend is a cashier and a lot of this paper came in with the cheap paper they use wrap breakables in at the checkout line. You might be able to find some at a craft store in the scrap booking section, or something.

2 different size holes.

So it is true, the A-Team survive still in the wastelands, you have their van.

AWESOME! I pity da fools who try and ram this mo!

What else are you holding back on us, ironblood?

Heh - I was sitting here looking at that van after it arrived, that was the inspiration for the question. I want to put some of that stuff on my own cars!

What did you use for the turret in the back?

It's the turret from the rattler gun truck.

yep, just the stock rattler gun truck turret.

Yeah I have something like that as well. I bought a roll of drywall adhesive seam tape for some work on my basement. I save the backing for such applications.
