Chain&plate armor progressing



Right, so that's a nearly finished frontal section, next i need to do the back, the shoulder straps and the sides. sleeves will be for the last. Ran out of sheet metal though.

Few words of advice here for those following in. Sheet metal will ****** cut you. Use gloves all the time. And you won't find it in the Tools4Us, you need a warehouse, unlike the wire.

  1. Wow, I love this man. Good advice on the cutting too, I hope you've never had to experience that shit first hand, that would suck.

  4. What gauge do you use? both for the wire and sheet metal. what diameter is are the rings, it is difficult to tell scaling from the photo.

    I plan on making my own armour and have already started on the mail and would love to get as much info and idea's from people already in the know!
