This is a hexagonal armor plate to be used for quickly reinforcing cheap armor like cardboard. There is a file for the armor plate and the pin, and to reinforce your armor quickly you just poke the pin through from the back and slide it through the slot in the plate, where it locks in. The proper application is using multiple tiles that fit together to create a stronger single piece of armor.

This was mostly a CAD exercise, but it's great for quickly making sturdy armor plates out of cardboard or other stiff but weak material, or for strengthening your awesome cardboard fort against siege.
