- Greetings!
- I have long been interested in Medieval armor. I had a few questions for
- those on the Rialto who have some armor:
-
- 1) What kind of armor do you use (padded, leather, chain, plate)? I am
- fairly acquainted with armor terms, so feel free to be as detailed as
- you like. I would also appreciate any information about the materials,
- like thickness, weight, etc.
-
- 2) Where did you get your armor (did you make it or buy it)? I would
- probably prefer to make my own rather than buy it (both for the fun of
- making it and to save money) but I might want to buy a hard-to-make
- piece here and there. I would appreciate any tips on making armor as
- well as good places to buy some.
-
- Thanks.
-
- Mundanely,
