Tailoring my maille.
Ian:
Sir Ulrich, it took a long time to convince you to do this, and I hope you see now that it was well worth it, because your hauberk looks a thousand times better, and I bet it feels a thousand times better as well.
Sir Wolf:
very nice man. can't wait to see that and your new coat of plates over it
Sir Ulrich:
Finished tailoring it today
It feels a lot better on me not like a liposuction patient anymore. Now I still have to replace the butted links with riveted ones once my tool with more leverage comes cause my old one doesnt have enough to rivet the rather thick links I got. Now just to somehow attach my chausses to my C belt, as I wont be getting my pourpoint in time for the faire to meet my friend. Prolly will have it by Days of Knights 2.0 though.

You can also do an "X" lace, but the two-hole works fine (same way as done with plate legs)
Sir Ulrich:
I got tie in the back ones which are a bit harder to put on, I usually just lace the leather between the rings and let it hang that way.
I am still debating on if I should cut a horseman's slit in my hauberk, I mean I am skinny enough to the point where I can sit down FINE without one but I want to look period so I'm thinking of cutting one...
