2nd looks OK, but 18 ga for lamellar? That'd make a heavy kit!

18ga is crazy heavy.  I've worn a kit a buddy of mine has for the SCA, but man oh man can it absorb some blows.  It's a compromise for getting beat with sticks, way overkill for other purposes though.

Sir Wolf,
I just gotta say, I really enjoy how you always seem to find the necessities.  I have great researching google-fu, but I can't seem to find the stuff to recreate it!
