Well, a few from different walks of armouring life.
Some Swedish ones, however, they're either backed up or have stopped taking orders (one has only sorta stopped but is thinking about it so I'll keep his name out of it for now.)
St George Armoury, he'll see about a spring steel price (would need a welded construction since he can't get a piece big enough in the Uk without massive costs). Otherwise I'm thinking 18 gauge stainless would do fine for the intents and purposes.
Now... these are all good (or good enough with a low price point).
But there's one more guy I emailed.
And he replied.
And I can get to him for fittings.
He's given me a very rough ballpark estimate and yes, it's not impossible (at a conflict with my wanted guantlets since it's about the same price point).
I'm waiting for a second reply from him.
But it seems I am at least a baby step closer to owning an Albert Collins breastplate.
