Anshelm Arms Gear SOLD (unless wives intervene)

clatonium · Post by **clatonium** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 3:16 pm

Greetings and salutations. I am moving far away away and must significantly lighten my burden. So all those precious items I acquired while under the tutelage of Sir Luther Anshelm must be liquidated.

Behold the booty!

(Bascinet SOLD)

I have also a globose-style breastplate, half-made by myself and finished by Brent. Fits a slim person, I have a 32" waist. It is in fine condition with few shallow dents, and there is some superficial rust which will be not much trouble to remove. For this I'd like $125

If any of you smaller people (like myself) who are fed up with the size-one-fits-all-giants armorers take to manufacturing legs, then I have something you will want to consider. I have rather bird-like shanks and these were built for me so that they would be wearable. The cuisse has an additional curve to it which is particularly striking in comparison to most "bend this trash can around your gams and you're good to go" look. Furthermore, they are in excellent condition

The legs are worth $200.

(Arm harnesses SOLD)

Questions? ask away!

I guess I should add that all pieces are mild steel. The bascinet is 12 ga, the legs are 16 ga with 14 ga lames, the breastplate is 16 ga I believe. I am located in Los Angeles and would ship from there if you were interested in shipping..

I've known Clayton for years and will vouch for him if anyone wants or needs a reference.

I'd face the Mrs.'s wrath for that helmet at that price in a moment if only it were larger.

P.S. Where on God's green earth would you have to be moving to make you sell all this nice armor?

Retitle this thread with the word Anshelm in it and more people will read it.

I wish I hadn't just spent $600 on Friday.

Yep, good idea. When I saw "LA Gear" I thought you were selling women's aerobics shoes. :wink:

I'd rather prefer not to get into dibbing. If someone wants an item and produces the money for it, I see no reason why I could turn them down.

by 32 waist do you mean pant size or actual measurement? and as for the legs can i get more specific measurments? around thigh top to knee? and perhaps another view of the legs, i need ot know if they would be suitable for riding in

Christian de Guerre · Sun Dec 21, 2008 10:40 pm

I'll take the helm. Give me payment specifics. I can pick it up at an upcoming event or you can ship it.

No problem. By 32", I do in fact mean pant size.

Here's a straight on shot of the leg. My own thigh is 22" circumference, and 16" around my knee when it is fully contracted, wearing exercise pants.

Here is the leg harness at its max flexibility.

And lastly here is my attempt to measure the cuirass in a meaningful way. Bear in mind I am 5'8", 150 lbs, and most of that weight is in the rocks between my ears.

Why does this kind of thing always happen with things that are way too tiny!

clatonium · Post by **clatonium** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 8:03 pm

it's not too tiny... it's authentically sized!
