Banded armor

Anyone ever do armor of bands or banded armor? -

Looks awesome.

I have a little extra $$$ at my disposal to buy a reasonably priced chainmail hauberk. I'm looking for riveted or welded, mild, zinc coated, or stainless(I don't think I'd like alum).

My chest is 42 inches.

Greetings,

I'm looking for an affordable bevor. Mild is fine, 16 gauge or heavier. I don't know if anyone makes kits, but I might be interested in the un-assembled pieces.

Gracias.

You can also use this stuff to remove rust - http://www.evapo-rust.com/

I've tried it, works well... There's also stuff called naval jelly, but it is a heavy chemical you don't want getting on your skin.
