Many favorite hockey game sometimes makes you spend a lot on paraphernalia. But with some knowledge, you can save a lot, for example, on shields. Follow some simple tips and you will see how to do it.
Instructions
Step 1
From an inexpensive thin fabric, cut out two tops and two pads for the shoulder pads and halves, having previously adjusted the dimensions to your height on paper. Using the same patterns, cut out the spacers from the foam rubber.
Step 2
Place shims on top of the linings, and then on the top, sew them with several stitches and sew them with tape. Shoulder pads are made in the same way.
Step 3
Sew the overlays on the halves and insert into the cells fiber or polyethylene plates, leather strips 2 mm thick and clavicle leggings made of foam rubber covered with fabric.
Step 4
Sew leggings onto the shoulder pads, and connect each half with a leather strap to the shoulder pads.
Step 5
Fasten the halves at the back with elastic bands 30-35 mm wide, and at the front with lacing. Now sew on the halves of a strip of haberdashery rubber with a width of 20-25 mm and connect them to the shoulder pads.
Step 6
The elbow pad is made of two parts - the base and the elbow sphere, which allows the arm to bend. For the base of the elbow pad, take a felt about 8-9 mm thick and sheathe it with any durable material. Cut the top of the base and lining out of thin fabric. Sew these details with an edging strip (tape or inlay). Now cut out the upper, lower and middle amplifiers from leather, leatherette or leatherette 0.9 mm thick. Then wash the side, top, and bottom covers made of polyethylene or soft metal such as aluminum or brass. Naked shields will require similar actions from you, but make the gasket from felt 5-7 mm, and make the edging strip from leather or a substitute.
Step 7
Cut out the shock absorber from 10-15 mm foam rubber and sheathe it with fabric. You can use regular soccer shin guards as a gaiter, or cut the plates yourself out of soft metal and sew them over with fabric.
Step 8
Always try on parts as you make them and adjust dimensions if necessary.
