He's back. Contacted me today.

Greetings, I used twill for the inside and outside with cotton batting also. What I found easier < although longer to make > was take your lengths of fabric, put batting in between, quilt entire section needed for pattern. Cut out that pattern and start again. Depending on how accurate your line mea...

Mrks, Thanks for getting back to me. I have looked at both GAA < love his work, just not interested in leather for this piece >, White Mountain < look very nice > Klang < also very nice >. As far as not being able to bend Ti in thoes shapes, thats fine. You know the structrial integrity a helluva lo...

I bougt them from Massa 'G' at GAA armories. Kept me very informed of everything that went on. Even as the shipment took almost a month to get to me, he wrote to inquire if I had recieved them.
Exellent service if I do say so myself.

Greetings, This is pulled off the SCA.ORG website dealing with weapon standards. With this in mind, it affects all kingdom's. "No metal, Plastic or PVC may be used in the striking surface or surfaces of any weapon" Had to have one of my mates here take it off his weapon. Looks realy fancy dancy, but...

It took me around 2 weeks < hour or two a night >. Not realy that time consuming. Just making sure the fitting is correct and the edging took the longest.

Hope that helps.

I'll take that into concideration on my next vest. Was thinking about making another anyways. With my experience, i've had a tendancy to get more slot shots and snaps that would otherwise catch. With sword and board, I don't get to many thrust on me. I imagine that will change dramaticaly once I sta...

Common Robert,

Be a REAL man and just pin them directly to your chest. Don't worry about your cotehardie, the blood from your wound would make the red field.

Greetings,

Think about them as "get on the field armor". Can't realy beat the $10 baskit hilts, there SS 1/2 gauntlets arn't that bad either.

a-hem, if your going to call it names, be sure you call it the correct one. I aquired it at Atlantia's Celtic Cattle Raids last year. Yep, it is a stuffed cow, miniture type. 100% free of BSD.

There is an overlap of the plates in the front. I like the little added coverage to offset the occasional "spear-shot to the solarplexes" syndrom.

Cool beans. I'll keep the Cash there and wait impatiently for him < grin >.
Thanks again

This is my completed vest using around 250 of Massa 'G's birka style plates. It is edged with 3-4oz green leather inside and out. Weave pattern is used for SCA combat, overlap downwards and twards chest. Spine is double plated with plates on the outside to distribute force away from the spine. Thick...

Thanks, Alcy, i talked to you last night about the gauntlets. That B/W Burgonet is downright Awsome. I just haven't heard any responce back from my PayPal payment. Guess i'm just impatient . I guess the cash will just sit there unti...

Just looking for general concensus on this armory. Quality, customer service, delivery time, etc.

Thanks

It was kind of funny when the UPS guy delivered this tiny box (approx. 8"x8"x8"), but it weighed about 30 pounds. Poor guy almost through out his back. Good Luck on your search, Sigeric Similar experience here with a 6x9x3 box. Happened to have 600 Lamelae plates in it. Weighed about 25 pounds. Lady...

That "Happy Pillager" umm, kinda disturbs me. Kinda like a clown doll in the corner disturbing.

Greetings, If you use strapping tape your skinned stick should last a bit. Unless you are going 2-3 practices a week and are in a very hard hitting Kingdome < ie. West, Atlantia >. In Drachenwald, I've used my skinned stick for almost a year with no noticable dammage. Of corse I may just need to get...
