Some pix asked for in PM's:
The cops set up to press kydex cops, and MY Personal GeneriCelt set (Warbelt, Vambraces, and Greaves)

(Edited to explain the "nick" in the red lining leather)
The bottom pic shows the one flaw with the belt. in doing the flip roll edge I miss calculated the amount I would need to "make" the edge. Has served me WELL for Approx 4 years.

nicholas

[Tatsuo Okami]

They are a Pair of Zwiehammer's Large Gauntlet in Mild steel that someone else Blackend. I fixed some shaping issues I have Personal feelings about.
I will see about getting some pix up.
The other question I will reply to privately.

[Satheian]

What's the length on the bazubands? Might be interested..

[Tatsuo Okami]

The only Bazuband style Vambraces I have for sale are Part of the FULL Turkish potlid harness.

Unless you meant the black and red leather extended Vambraces shown just above ....
And those too.. will only go somewhere as part of the set. I will be glad to give measurements on the black and red set.
Probably should have done that to begin with. (TY)

[Tatsuo Okami]

Pix of the Blackened Gauntlets: the last pic is a detail of how DEEP the thumbs are.

And Measurements for the GeneriCelt set:

Warbelt: Circumference/ 46" (Plus 2 cutoff panels @ 3 1/4" each); Front Height/ 6 1/2"; back Height/ 12" ( the "hump" is approx 10" across)

Greaves: Ankle to front top/ 18 1'2"; Ankle to side "top"/ 12"; @ the ankle straps/ 8 1/2"; @ the calf straps/ 12" (the "hump" of the front is approx 5")

Vambraces: Inside length (edges of the pattern)/ 6 1/2"; Outside length (centerline of the pattern)/ 12 1/4". Circumference Approximation/ My arms are 7 1/8" at the wrist and 12 1/8" at the "Bulge" of the forearm. They fit snugly with a 1/4 to a 1/2 inch overlap.

This set is 14-16 Oz Veg-Tanned leather (1/4" thickness at a minimum), with sectioned 1/4" close cell foam underneath 4 Oz, Chrome tanned Upholstery leather, lining that is sewn in.

These were my Personal tourney and FP set for 4 years.... So no super cheap deals here. These have a solid Price and it is $400.

[Satheian]

yes, I meant the black and reds, but I'm not really interested in the full set, GLWS.

[Tatsuo Okami]

SO..... There IS Nothing in this post that anyone wants enough to make an offer.....
WOW

[Knight Sir James]

I didn't see a price on that do, or what the final assembled one would look like in regards to lacing.

[Tatsuo Okami]

It is a basic sugake style lacing similar to this picture.

[Knight Sir James]

It is a basic sugake style lacing similar to this picture.

How much are you asking for it? I might take it without any holes punched, since I want more lacing and closer spacing. Need to think it through a bit.

Its great stuff, but it IS going on war-week at pennsic.

[Tatsuo Okami]

(Whimper, whimper)
I Know........

TY for the compliment.. )

[Kilian_the_warlike]

Also.. someone was asking about a large helm... I have a Bascinet a local dropped their dibs on. Big. middle one in these pix.

How big and how much? Whats the word on the one to the left of it? What are the measurements of the salvaged faceplate?

[Tatsuo Okami]

X-Large... (I have specific measurements in another post about it... I'll look it up and List them.

I must totally suck at communicating clearly this summer... the Only helm left of those 3 is the ONE in the Middle.
The one on the left got sold at a war, the one to the right of it got sold to a Canadian (who Apparently loved it).
I have been asking $XXX.xx...
Make an offer. worse I'll do is Say "No thank You. I cant let it go for that.

[mihil]

/r
Mihil

[Kilian_the_warlike]

I don't want to lowball you, but I was looking $60ish...

Would you say it wouldn't be too big for a 23-24inch head?

[Tatsuo Okami]

@Killian: (HEHEhahahaaha) No thank you. I cant let it go for that. Uhm TOO Big for a 23-24 inch head..??.. yeah if you wanted 3/4" to minimum (1/2") Padding... probly
I ahve looked thru EVERY post I havemade.. and I cant find the measurements.. I will find out tomorrow.


@Mihil: Size med-large upper thoracic and shoulders, 48" Abdominal's (24"/R..24"/L
Shape??? Amount of Shaping?? they are ready to punch and strap... If you dont mind 3 levels of finish.. Thoracic: Polished/ Shoulders: Prepped for polishing/ Abdominal's: raw metal.
As far as the shape the abdominals are in is : wider side to side than it is long front to back.

Does this answer your question?

Sorry bro, I don't mean to insult you. Though it does have complex dishing, its still a slightly rusted and unfinished help in mild steel and i'd probably max at about $75 before its just more cost effective to get a complete, ready to use helm.

[Tatsuo Okami]

Not insulted at all.
Amused... But not insulted.

[Micah Nelson]

How much are you looking to get out of the Dou kit?

So Im wondering if you have pics / prices for these pieces.
I am 6'5" with a 23/24" head and a 44" chest. weigh about 220.

If they come cheaper in a kit, all the better

Thanks,
=Eric

[PatternWeld]

What size neck will the x-large brig gorget fit and what material are the plates inside? My neck is 17.5"

Will the unfinished pigface visor fit the unfinished bascinet? Is the bascinet all 14 guage mild or 12 guage top & 14 guage sides?

Grimr

[Tatsuo Okami]

@ Gorget questions: Gorgets are Made from 4-6 Oz leather over .090 6061 T-6. Interior Circumference >Front Collar Heighth As follows:
"XL: 22 1/2" >2"1/4." {*L: 21" >2". M: 19" >2".} "S: 17" >1"7/8. XS: 15 >1"3/4". " standard measurements for the size listed maybe +/- a 1/8" so: a possible 1/4 inch variance" {*not available at this time, but included for info} And the small is shown on this page higher up.
These are Sizing/loan stock I have kept... so a few scrapes.. an edge curl here or there 20 bucks off of the regular price so XL would be $100, Small & X-S would be $80

@PatternWeld: (AAGGGHHH) NO... whimper
I made the pigface to go With the Bascinet (which is 14 Ga thruout) but had forgotten it was from my large pattern and cut the pigface out using my medium sized pattern.

@brunester:Basic Measurements for the Lorica were shown above>" 24" abdominal plates (48" total) and Med/large Thoracic plates. Asking what the other 3 kits sold at: $400
There are pics of the gauntlets 20 entries above (about the middle of this page) They are 4 1/2" across the knuckles, With a high center arch, so they coud be spread some and still retain the parallel edge fold. They are about 5" from the knuckle line (When laid out flat) to the end of the finger tip lame.
The Gothic kit is 1800 Plus shipping... IF you are still interested let me know And I will email you pertinent pictures

The bottom pic is the exact pattern of the gothic set.. except for the front section on the Pauldrons (He specifically asked for rounded leading edge and Anatomical shaping to the front of the breast plate. As opposed to scalloped freont edge and center ridged Breastplate.

[Tatsuo Okami]

Picture of a finished Lorica's from my pattern.

NOTE please: the visible shoulder straps were the customers Reworking of the shoulder articulation.... that worked fine before he touched them. (IMHO)

[Tatsuo Okami]
