Who makes a camail for the bascinet I'am making

[Ron Zwart]

I'am amidst the making of a bascinet. It's my third helmet.
So I am still a newby. I am looking for someone to produce a
camail out of mild steel, 9 mm flat rings, round riveted, that fits my bascinet.
Not for combat. The leather strap I can make myself.
The circumference of the helmet is 70 cm. The rim at the bottom of the helmet around the neck is 51 cm.
The rims of the cheekpieces left and right of the visor are 11 cm each.
The camail must have the typical triangle shape of the camail of the effigy of the Black Prince.
Like to know a name, an address, a price and a delivery time.
I would have liked to add some pictures, but I don't understand the drill yet.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your welcome and reply. Absolutely beautiful amour you make! The finish is nice also, gives you the real iron feel.
I would have liked to put the 3 pics of the bascinet in progress on this site but I do not realy understand how to.
I have tried to reach Icefalcon several times now, but it takes to much time to connect, so it seems,
according to firefox. I'll keep on trying.

Hi and no problem, Email the pics of your helm to my email adress and Ill post them for you to get the ball rolling.

Its strange you cant get ahold of Mr Icefalcon, its possible hes out of town at a war or something, You might try to send him a personal message here on the AA about it, I know he will get back to you as soon as he can.

Take care

Andy, thanks for taking all the trouble.
In the meantime I have sent an email to mr. Icefalcon with pictures and measurements.
Hope he can find the time to look at it.

Nice day

Ron,

Do you mean with behind the dikes, The Netherlands? If so, look at battlemerchant.com for supplies. It is easy to do yourself so I wouldn't pay for custom if I were you.

Cheers,

Jan

I got your email this morn and I am sure I can help you out.
