I'm about to take the plunge and make a purchase at Custom Chainmail.  I saw him advertising over on the AA, and I've emailed back and forth a couple times.  He does shirts to custom measurements, which is a really nice feature.  I'm going to replace my pin riveted franken-haubergeon with a wedge riveted more fitted version.  I'll be sure to let everyone know how it goes.

Round or Flat ring?

I'm not even sure they offer round, but this order will be flat, fully riveted.  Haubergeon length on the torso with long sleeves so that it fully covers the inside of the elbow and tucks in to my vambrace as per the effigies.
