bascinet with interchangable bargrill/pig face price drop

[Jonathan Baird]

I just got this in. it might fit a person with with 21-22 inch head (I have a 24 inch head) It is mild steel. I am not sending it back as I have waited months and months to get it so that is not happening.
It is 12g mild.

The helm is this visor http://revival.us/vestechoburgbascinet.aspx but the helm is not an onion top just a regular bascinet it comes with a removable bargrill otherwise the helm is the same with integral padding etc.

Possible dibs pending price. What is the internal circumference of this helm? I hav a 22in head but want to be sure it will work.

[Jonathan Baird]

I just checked it by running a string around the inside and it seems to be very close to 23. That includes the padding so your head should fit. You're in Michigan so shipping with insurance should not be over 20 bucks...the price is in the description...350

[Jonathan Baird]

Adrian saw the msg I sent and has not replied so I am going to assume he did not want the helm unless he says otherwise. So please feel free to ask questions etc.

i am interested --i am in a bind waiting for some measurments from Ryance on his helm can i put ina tentative dibs!
and by tomorrow i can release or keep?

[seanjohnson1]

it is small but at 12 guage what is the weight on that thing?

[seanjohnson1]

hmm wish it was the 14 guage stainless--is it the small or the medium?

does the bar grill look exactly like the one on the website for bacinets? How far out does it stick?

[seanjohnson1]

i guess, got any pics of actual helm?

[seanjohnson1]

oh hey any interest in cash plus trade deals? i gotta a TON of nice stuff....check out "Untold Wealth..." and "Period Gorget" links.

thanks Sean

PS does that bascinet flare out at bottom? and how much?
oh if u want to use cell phone u send me pics too 520-488-6932

my head is 22.25 so i am thinking it will fit sca legal am i right?

[Jonathan Baird]

It should fit. I don't have a camera here tonight I left it at work. I am not really interested in trades. and the bottom does not flair. It is SCA legal at 12 g mild. Basically it is a combination of the helm at the link and this helm http://revival.us/centermountgrilledbascinet.aspx except the helm has two visors. These are exactly what they look like. I got it today and placed it up for sale not fifteen minutes later. I assume it is the medium. The large should at least fit on my head snugly.

[seanjohnson1]

weight? 12 guage sounds like a beast but who knows it is a slim design...

[Jonathan Baird]

Doesn't weigh that much pretty light in my opinion I have had much heavier helms but then I have a large head.

[seanjohnson1]

Sir r u the one who use to do the demos 20 years ago cutting other people's sword s and knives in half with ur own, hand made, gear...just wondering? You were (are) a legend! If it is you nice to see you back (and ALIVE) i am kinda old myself...

[seanjohnson1]

Hey buddy let me see if Konrad wants to get a hold of this thing or not.

[priss5]

He says he might "nibble" if had an actual pic.

[Jonathan Baird]

I will take my camera home from work today but the helm is exactly as it is on the website the face plate of the one on the body of the other. No difference at all.

[priss5]

Yeah but people get picky and want to see the actual helm.
