WTT: 30lbs of loose rings for ~18lb of finished maille
Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 11:11 pm
Some time ago, I purchased a sizable amount of the wedge riveted flat rings

to make a haubergeon and aventail (and a few other smaller pieces) for myself.
With real life, the making of plate armour commissions, as well as the pieces for myself, I have found that I have almost no time to assemble the maille.
I am looking to trade the 30lbs I have yet to even open for a completed haubergeon and aventail in the same type of rings (flat, wedge riveted with blackened finish)
My meausurements for the haubergeon at full stretch would be 48" chest, 35" length with an 18" circ and 12" length sleeve. (total shirt weight about ~13.5lbs.)
The aventail would be 10" wide with a 34" top circ and a 68" bottom circ using the expansion method, instead of the gusset method. (total weight would be ~4.5lbs.)
Exact details of trade can be negotiated, but starts with the 12lbs of extra raw material as part of the trade (~335$ value) as well as the replacement of used material.
Thanks
