THanks for the responses

THanks for the suggestions about the Royal Armoury! I can't wait. THere are also a TON of castles around MAdrid.

I already sent an email to the local shire, mabey I can find a local to show me around a bit, that would be very cool.

Now I wander if they have a decent collection in Lisbon.

On my scale vest I have a buckel on the upper left where the sholder strap comes over. My scale opens on the left side with a significant overlap (hopefully I'll gain a bit more muscel eventually) and it is held snug around me by my squire belt. Because my backing leather is rather rigid this works ...
