Main Features

• Ergonomic "backplate" shape, designed to be worn with straps (elastic or fabric) or to be attached to a dummy.
• Stylized details (reinforcements, ribs, attachment points) for a realistic yet robust appearance.
• Modular design possible (backplate + accessories) to facilitate printing and assembly.
• Surfaces provided for painting and markings (number, name, logo) according to your needs.

Model Content (Assembly Example)

Depending on the version, the file can be provided as a single piece or in multiple parts to be assembled. Example composition:

• 1× main backplate (back support).
• 2× anchor points for straps (top/bottom) or integrated loops.
• 1× flat back area for gluing/screwing a dummy accessory (decorative cylinder, case, etc., non-functional).
• Option: interchangeable covers or reinforcements to modify the style.

3D Printing Recommendations (General)

• Material: PLA for indoor use (easy); PETG if you are looking for more impact resistance.
• Size: possible in several scales (e.g., figurine, child, decoration) depending on your printer and use.

Assembly

1. Lightly deburr the edges (fine sandpaper) to remove rough spots.
2. Assemble the parts (if the model is modular) with plastic-appropriate glue or light screws according to your design.
3. Add textile/elastic straps (not supplied) by passing them through the designated anchor points.
4. Check that nothing pinches or scrapes when worn, especially for a child.

Finishing and Customization

The backplate can be left raw or painted (primer + acrylic paint). For a more "equipment" look, you can add stickers, decorative reflective strips, or a marking (name/number). It is also possible to adapt the size, add an embossed name, or modify the attachment points according to the template.

Safety and Warning

Important: this model is a decorative item / toy. It is not personal protective equipment and should not be used for intervention, operational training, or any respiratory or safety function. Use under adult supervision; avoid small parts with young children.

If you tell me the target size (figurine / child / adult) and if you want a one-piece or modular version, I can adapt this description (and add a more precise parts list).
