recent project. GDFB greaves. i reshaped and trimmed the one so far. it makes a decent fit. not totally great but much better and wearable. my daughter is sleeping or else I would be working on the other one right now. The only issue with the fixed one is it is still a tad high on my leg. it just presses against the lower edge of the knee when strapped to the GDFB legs (which I had to cut off the inner part of the legs cause of the "cutting of the boys" when I walked

Wait, wait wait wait, I'm awake now. When I saw the picture on FB I completely blanked those are the hinges it came with. I thought you put the hinges on, since I recently did hinges on a set of my reworked greaves. I can clearly see one is shorter than the other now. Maybe the repeated sword blows to my head today shook the cobwebs out. :)
Nice job on the reworking. The left one looks much better, the rolls at the bottom line up nicely.
Also, gotta ask ... I see bullets on the bench, and I see a hole in the front of one of the greaves...... coincidence? :D

You know, til I read you'd fixed just the one, I was going to ask if perhaps my view was askew lol

couldnt fix the left leg on Sunday, my cutting disk broke on my angle grinder. have to pick one of those up tomorrow.
