How can I Make my Shield more smooth?
** For the smoothest shield possible, it is a good idea to cut some shallow recesses where the belts are glued to the foam. That way the belts can sit flush with the foam and you won't get any surprise bulges when you glue the two halves together. I forgot to do this on my shield and I wish I had.

How do I center my foam mat?
Check that the center mark you made on your foam mat is actually in the centre by placing the 1cm hole right on the center mark and then making sure that the outside (29cm) hole doesn't go off any of the edges.

And put a couple of pieces of tape on them to keep them together.
Step 1: CUT
Cut the biggest circle possible, it is a very nice size. I read somewhere the shield was supposed to have 76 cm diameter, it is just 16 cm difference and I am not very tall, so it suits me well.
Step 3: Heating
After appying heat to the foam with a heat gun (several times each side of the piece), put the circle on the dish, apply some weight and leave there for a while.
Step 5: Back Straps
Now for the straps. I used bended plastic flanges to hold the straps and eva foam.
Step 6: Hardening
For the hardening: first 3-5 layers of white glue with sanding between them.
