TF2 Demo vest blueprints

Description

Feel free to download and use :)

I used about a square metre worth of thick, black, closed cell foam rubber from Clark's Rubber in Australia to make the vest itself, and a thin strip of foam rubber to make the side straps. The pouches are just boxes wrapped in duct tape. This was a rushed job so no time to make nice pouches!

I re-used the pouch from the sniper cosplay here: [link]

Other materials:

Contact adhesive (CHECK the description to see if it works on rubber! Some types will corrode rubber)

Box-cutter (the sharper the better. Even so, foam rubber will pucket easily...I just lived with it)

Six drink cans (Get big cans if you are a big person and small cans if you are small. Not rocket science!)

tape measure

ruler
________________________________________ ____
IMPORTANT
Foam rubber is bendable and rather elastic. And these measurements assume that you are wider at the shoulders than at the waist. So a lot of 'GUESSTIMATION' was at work here....treat the tutorial as a guide, not a bible, and accept that most measurements would only be correct to within +/- 2cm!!!

This was a rushed job completed in a day, so if I make improvements to the design, I will post a new blueprint.

Good luck!
