Great helm liners

<< < (11/12) > >>

Ian:
Guys, don't get wrapped around the 'moving blanket' aspect so to speak.  The pattern is still good.  Just take linen and sandwich cotton batting in between and you get the same padded coif, just way more breathable.

Sir William:
That is predicated on the ability to sew- I'm no seamstress unfortunately.  :(

Leganoth:
Yeah that would work but my great helm is literally like an empty bucket, lol id need a good few inches of padding on the top just to get my eyes to the slits

Sir William:
Leganoth, you might want to consider using foam to start the padding process, mold it into a cup that your head would fit (while wearing a coif) in at the top of the helm.  Then if you were so inclined, sew the padding over (or under, depending on how you look at it) the foam so that no one'll ever know its there but you.

I suspect Ulrich will want to try the same with his transitional helm as it is a bucket top too.

Thorsteinn:
Helm & great helm are super protective together. I've heard great stories.
