Oh I can discount the price a bit if you're getting two studs at the same time.

Mad Matt

I can do them. Unless you're in a big rush. Although 20-22 ga stainless is going to get dented up easily even if ours not Legal target area. I can do spring stainless though if you have the budget for it

Mad Matt

Those ones are made using dwarlocks pattern in the pattern archive. Those wide splints will be a bit of a challenge to get decent shape for the ankle area. I can make them they'll be a little more expensive than the ones on my sure though

Mad Matt

I have always wanted to make one. Send me an e-mail to sales@madmattsarmory.com and we can talk about it. I can likely hit what you're saying for used prices for a new one if it's in mild steel. Just a note I won't be quick with it at the moment I'm clearing overdue orders before I start working on ...

Mad Matt

Do you have a cuirass you'll be wearing with this? It's not an easy project and in order for it to work properly with the cuirass it needs to be made with the cuirass present.

Mad Matt

Where in Canada are you? I'm about an hour and a half north of Toronto. I'm also nearly finished alkyl my overdue orders.

Mad Matt

Glad you like them

Mad Matt

Dominic. I have a few kits in stock need torso circumference at the largest point including anything you plan to wear underneath to see if I have your size.

Also a note that progress has been slower than I'd hoped but I've finished a few more of my backorders and am still working.

Mad Matt

I got started in 89 I still have all my first projects maybe I should digg them out and post pics of what an enthusiastic 14 year old could come up with on his own pre internet.

Mad Matt

Still haven't caught up on all of my e-mails. Getting through e-mails has been a lot slower than I'd hoped.

On the other hand as of today I've finished about a third of my outstanding orders.

Mad Matt

Just checked the weight thing 23 pounds sits about neutral. Not sure about the depth haven't really paid attention but I'd rather have more than I need than not enough. Signo. It works great and I'm happy with it so I'm not gonna mess with it. No I didn't paint the ceramic blanket. I did consider fo...

Mad Matt

This video was actually taken yesterday. I have heat in my shop and I don't like sleeves. Not sure if you can see out the window but there's snow.

Mad Matt

Had a friend over and she took some videos. Here's my propane armoring forge.

There's a few other armoring videos but they're just me beating on stuff without explaining anything.

Mad Matt

Power hammer is finally up and running today.

Hrolfr replied.

Mad Matt

Nothing ever goes according to plan. My power hammer broke on saturday. I finally have everything I need to fix it now and should have it back up and running by tomorrow though.

Mad Matt

Hrolfr I've got the 6 round and 6 pointy mild steel bosses. I only have 2 medium and 2 large wisby#7 kits large fits 52" to 58" chest and medium fits 46"-52" chest. If you'd like to place the order for 6 each of all three things I can do that and take full payment for what I've got in stock and 50% ...

Mad Matt

Still have the stainless shield boss. If you like you can just send me an email to sales@madmattsarmory.com and I'll send you a payment request for it. Or shipping on a boss is $20 if you just want to Paypal me the $70 it'll go on the mail on Monday

Mad Matt

Didn't feel bullied in the slightest

Sorry if my response seemed that way.

Mad Matt

Sorry don't have any of the wavy bucklers. Mjblazek Your note isn't going to get his order done quicker since I'm trying to get things out as quickly as possible so completing the stuff I already had cut out first. But I did just send him an e-mail in response to your request so that's something. Ho...

Mad Matt

Thanks I appreciate it.

Mad Matt

This is not a post looking for sympathy. Recently my life completely self destructed. I have health issues which are aggravated by stress and I was given the option of not doing anything to do with armor stuff including e-mails or a long term hospital stay. I chose against the long term hospital sta...

Mad Matt

I can make it but not in 3 weeks.

Mad Matt

I've done a decent amount of stuff for ACL what is your budget? Email me sales@madmattsarmory.com if you'd like to see if we can work something out

Mad Matt

Ok so insured of telling you not to do it I'll say I can make it. Email me at sales@madmattsarmory.com and we can discuss details.

Mad Matt

I don't have stock but I can meet your budget

Mad Matt

Oh there's no pic on my site. The Demis are the same as the wisby finger mittens just without the fingers and thumbs

Mad Matt

My wisby Demi gauntlets fit the bill. I normally use aluminum splints in the cuff and if you want them lighter I can do spring or spring stainless for the metacarpal and splints

Mad Matt

I could do it for $450 that would be the helmet with a bargrill sca legal but no bevor.

Mad Matt

I'm pretty close to the same thing although this is my sole source of income and I would have made more money last year working at McDonalds. Completely understand where you're coming from.

Mad Matt

My Fingermittens start at $450

Mad Matt

Or I can make you a set. Spring and spring stainless aren't listed on my site but I can do both

Mad Matt

I've got a pair of blued spring steel finger gauntlets with enclosed thumb tips in stock and on sale for $800 regular price $1,200. They'll fit someone with shorter fingers though.

Mad Matt

I use vice grips and hot work over a ball stake to fit the front to the back.

Mad Matt

Sent a link to this to a friend who has been making awesome furniture.
