MR SHIELD INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS PDF

For the two biggest slits in the middle, use 4mm drills. Stay just within the black rectangle of the slits. Use 3mm drills to drill holes at each end of the slits on the front layer. After drying, sand all sides of the shield until satisfactory. Glue all three pieces together and be careful to properly align the three layers. Do not remove the drawing from the front layer after cutting! Then use your scroll saw to cut out the three parts. If you adjusted this part for your knifes in the previous step, use the adjusted drawing for the front layer.

Print out the attached pdf files and use spray adhesive to attach them to 6 mm (front and back layer) and 12 mm (middle layer) ply wood. If a lot of glue leaked out of the sides during gluing, you might want to remove the dried glue with a knife before you start the sanding. You will probably have to replace the sand paper on the scroll saw blade a couple of times during this process. Now you can mount the self made sanding strip in your scroll saw and sand down the sides of the warrior until satisfactory. Place the scroll saw blade with the flat side into the middle of the sanding paper and fold it again. Fold the stripe along the middle and then remove the back of the adhesive tape. Cut of a stripe of the sanding paper with adhesive tape with a width of roughly 6 times the width of the scroll saw blade. As an alternative you can make your own sanding stripes.ДЄpply double sided adhesive tape onto the back of some sanding paper. (enter 'sanding stripes scroll saw' into google) I found them to be somewhat expensive. There are special sanding strips available for your scroll saw. Sanding down the sides of the warrior part can be a pain, because you want to progress carefully to preserve all details. However, if you don't trust your wood, make the wrist even thicker or do the same as me. In the uploaded drawing, I made the wrist thicker, so it should be fine. I then entered a 4mm brass rod into the hole and glued in in place to strengthen the wrist section. Therefore, i drilled a 4mm hole into the arm until i reached the elbow. When I was finished with this part, I noticed that the wrist, which was going to hold the shield, was very thin. Depending on the shape of the knife handle, which you plan to place into the warriors hand, you can work out the hands shape to properly fit to this knife handle. Sand down roughly until the middle of the wood (~12 mm). Start working from the side where you placed the magnet. If necessary, use glue fix the magnet in place.ДЇinally, use a power tool with a drum sanding kit to work out the warriors hand. In case you are using hard wood, you probably have to use a 6mm drill. You can use a vice or a similar tool to press the magnet into the hole.

Drill only halfway through! Then fit the 6mm magnet into the hole. Use a 5 mm bit to drill a hole into the middle layer just above the head of the warrior (see drawing). I provided the final design on the drawings for you.) (The hands of the warrior on the images look different from the drawings because I made the design on the go. During gluing press together all parts of the warrior using clamps (legs, arms, head.). Glue all three layers together and be careful to properly align the three layers. This way you should be able to properly align the second half of the drawing. Place these holes in the overlapping section of both drawings directly on the lines. Then, cut some holes into the second half of the drawing. Print out both of them and first attach one half onto your piece of wood.

For that case, I additionally attached the warrior in two parts on two separate pages. Since the warrior fills out the whole A4 page it is possible that your printer can't handle the drawing. Check out the instructions on the first pdf file. For the warrior part print out the attached drawing and use spray adhesive to attach them to 6 mm (2 side layers) and 12 mm (middle layer) ply wood.
