Description The Powered Pauldron is a commission piece I just completed. It's made of various weights of leather, copper plating, recycled clock parts, vacuum tubes, LED's, and various other recycled items. It's a right shoulder piece. The power switch on the front sets the color, red or blue, of the three LEDs. Two leds back light the should plate, while the third serves as a power indicator on the power box on the back. All straps are resizable, and it has a removable bandolier with three dee rings for hanging accessories.

Thanks. I have a better process now using muriatic acid that's a lot cheaper, safer, and gives a really great result. My personal armor will have much much more etching throughout.

Aye, I've looked into it a bit with sewing machine restoration. Etching faceplates.
