I'm just waiting for someone to answer if 115 is enough to create even the easiest of Fine Plate.

Yes it is. Keep in mind though, your success rate will be roughly 30-40%. Each combine costing you about 30pp in materials. But the best part about crafting Fine Plate once you near the trivial level of each piece it's very rare to fail a combine. In other words, Reach the visor trivial and the rest is a breeze.
