Have you ever wanted to create medieval plate armor/chainmail/weaponry in your own home? Well, so do we. But we need cash. So, if you wanna help in the construction of this forge, any contributions will be appreciated, whether they be materials, cash, labor, etc.
STEPS IN CONSTRUCTING THIS FORGE 1. find a good location 2. obtain materials 3. bring materials, workers to location 4. assembly following diagram and/or written instructions 5. victory dance
STEPS IN USING THIS FORGE 1. find materials with which to make armor/weapons 2. use materials to make armor/weapons following various diagrams online OR using own diagrams 3. distribute finished products amongst ourselves OR sell finished products
and btw, we will need to practice and study before making full suits of armor or weapons
here are some websites to refer to http://www.bladeturner.com/index.html http://www.chainmailbasket.com/construction/making_maille.html
oh yeah, and we can make chainmail or scale mail without a forge, so just PM me if you wanna help with chainmail or with scale mail (scale mail is more expensive, as scales must be purchased, while rings for chainmail can be hand made)
