I'm in Missouri. I'm building arms for locals, and figured I could make a few extras while I was at it. Price depends on what you want and when. Let me know style, material, and size.

Any pics of your work?
Although I fear that being on the other side of the pond shipping might be overly expensive :(

Ouch! Ya the shipping will be terrible. My computer went down a short time ago, and I lost all my pics. I'm finishing a munitions grade pair of arms right now. When they're done, I'll post pics.

I'm a new fighter in MO and i'm trying to put together a kit atm. Just have a nice stainless steel sugarloaf helm so far. But, I don't have a ton of money to spend. Do you have any pics and about how much for some med size 16ga or better. Style dosen't matter a whole lot...as long as it's legal in Calontir.

If you want 16ga mild, I could start pretty soon. I have the steel for it so, I wouldn't need any money 'till they're done. You're probibly looking at $150 to $200. Stainless is another story. I just finished my sixth pair of stainless arms and I am out of stainless steel (except 20ga).

Sure, I can put the hinges on the other side. On the vambraces, 16ga mild okay?

16 ga is fine. What measurements do you need?

I need around your wrist (just behind the wrist bone), around the largest part of your forearm, around your elbow, and around your bicept. On length, I need from the wrist bone to the tip of your elbow, and from the tip of your elbow to however high you want it to go up your upper arm. I also need to know how thick your padding will be.
