Step 5Design the Plate and Buffers
Okay this step is a bit esoteric and really left open to personal taste. There is a curved metal plate and a layer of fauz leather that rests under it to protect your skin or jacket from wear. I find a good way to work this out is to set all the parts you know you want to use down on paper. Move them around until they are where you'd like them to be.
I knew I wanted to have a D ring and Lynch Pins as the notions, so once I figured out where I thought they looked best, I drew an outline to represent the metal plate. Then I drew another line about 1/2 inch outside of that to represent the buffer. then I figured out where the straps and such attach.
I only made half of the pattern.
