I don't remember where the link's home page is. Sorry. I got the URL from an older RAT thread, though if that helps.
I have to agree that this is nothing near an amateur project. Just beating out a curved scutum dished boss is enough trouble. But raising and stretching, getting an even corner, creating that spike in the middle, all from basically a thick flat plate is amazing. I can see that it would work, but LOTS of work to do it. Cheaper to buy one if your time is worth anything at all.
