Ok I've got one round stainless boss and a few round mild steel bosses in stock. Also have a stainless scutum boss.
Mild steel
Round $25
pointy $30
Stainless
round $35
pointy I've still gotta do a test one.
Stainless scutum boss $40
mild scutum boss will come as soon as I get a sheet of steel to try em out with. If there's interest let me know and it'll probably give me a kick in the pants.
All bosses come with a satin finish. Prices are in US$. Don't have pics of the scutum boss but it's about 8X8 square with a 6" dished area that's 2"+ deep.
Stainless bosses are 14ga
Mild steel bosses are 13ga
There's pics of the mild steel ones on my website there's a link in my sig.
Don't have pics of the stainless ones but they're basically the same only a little brighter, they won't rust and the flange is slightly bigger. Also they're a little thinner 14ga instead of 13ga.
I've also got a bunch of coat of plates kits left that are for sale. Sizing limited to what I've got in stock so you'll have to e-mail me. They're $55
IF you've got any questions either ask me here or e-mail me madmattsarmory@yahoo.ca
My stock bosses will be going up on e-bay soon so if you want the stainless ones you better act fast.
Shield bosses some in stock but my waiting list is cleared.

It's a shame you don't offer these in 22g. carbon steel. I'd like a commercial source to refer people to when they see how little mine weighs.

I'm planning to do some tests for that soon. Have to see if I tear holes in the steel and find a heat treater first. Also still tryin to figure out how to get t6 aluminum ones to work. I keep tearing holes in them when I dish them out.

Cool so I could charge an arm and a leg for them. Probably won't though but they won't be cheap. Probably would have to make a really big batch of them to make the heat treating cost per boss reasonable.
I probably have a pretty big share of the market for bosses as it is. I've sold over 800 of em.
