Main > The Armoury
friend of mine's sca kit
Sir Wolf:
it was a forth armoury coif. i know this cause i owned it at some point. he cut off the top and dagged the bottom. i too am thinking of doing this to a GDFB coif. i don't like the riveted aventails out on the market right now. it will take some work, (and faith in the first cut) but it can be done.
Sir William:
Where'd he get the tailored hauberk from? I'm REALLY wanting one of those, as some of the knights on here can tell you, mine is ill-fitting as far as I'm concerned. The arms...why must they always be like bellows?
Sir Brian:
Regrettably I think it is the price we all must pay to walk that fine line of cost/fit. Of course we have a few various methods to adjust that but it can’t be nearly as satisfying as having a fitted Haubergeon/Hauberk. :(
Sir Wolf:
oh he got the rings rivets and tools and tailored it himself.
i have to agree, i love the way my butted mail fits after i tailored the long sleeves
Sir William:
Sir Wolf, can you give me an idea of how you went about doing it? Been flirting with the idea of altering mine...or buying it outright if I could.
