Sir William:
I still might avail myself of that service...Lord knows I've been loathe to touch it.

Sir Ulrich:
I asked the guy about tailoring. I was planning on doing it myself but seeing this service to do it and not only do they mimic the same type of tailoring on a HISTORICAL piece of maille rather than my own job I think I might take it. Just gotta try to convince them to use the rings I send because I am so OCD about everything matching.

Sir William:
I think he'd rather use your rings anyway, Ulrich.  I had talked to him about doing my hauberk some time ago and basically that's the best bet for a uniform look.   Not that he wouldn't do it if you didn't have rings, but for the looks- its best that you do have them.  But you've made such headway...it would almost be a shame to quit now.

Sir Ulrich:
Well I took my measurements for the tailoring, main reason I want to get this done here is it's full tailoring as opposed to just tapering the sleeves. IE it will hang off my body my easier and will encumber and fatigue me less.
