Will try to hit everyone in one email:
Wolf is right on where they go. Sometimes people have joints and they want to buy rerebracers and vambraces to go with them. Since we try to make everything automatic (only one office person) we just added them to the site so it limits the need for off-website ordering.
All the helms we currently have in mind to make are now on the website. More sizes to those will be available.
I think Otto and I will start designing some new things in the future. I was very impressed with his ability to have taken the norman picture from my website and reproduce it. I think its the nicest helm hes made.
We just added a couple lower priced bascinets but maybe the next step would be to make another upper 200 helm. That will be after the economy picks up because I need to be able to send money his way for exprimenting on new helms. Cant have him stick his neck out if im not ready to buy them.
Ive made gauntlets and demi gauntlets in full metal before. As gauntlets are a losing proposition all the way around. Low payback for the time and labor, we (probably) will never make any roads into them (again).
Im sure it would be no problem to put PPH option on plastic cops. Im surprised it isnt already actually. If you shoot my office maanager an email she can add it.
Trevor: Oh man, I am at the La shop today and we dont need splints for what we produce here. If you would just shoot her an email on this and she will get right back with you Im sure. I also dont do any pricing anymore, thats strictly her job to run that office.
Peder: We dont have a standard thickness on anything. We make 4 thicknesses from TW, to midweight, to heavyweight, to super heavy weight. Its personal preference of the buyer. If you clcik on the actual product page, you will see our items routinely come with 10-15 options listed below. All items come with typical free options, then below are add ons which have various prices. ie: you can take the same exact leg armor and order it with ten different fans.
Stonekeep: We are out of work!

Sorry for not being clear as I was aware of that. The full steel legs don't say what the "tournament weight" is on the cuisses. Just that the next heavier, midweight, is all 16 ga.

That would make it 18 ga, but i dont recommend that for sca unless you wanna be tapping out your armor all the time.
It would be better to go with spring steel 21 gauge which wont dent or bend if you need something that lightweight.
People have their preferences though, and thats why its available.
