i would like to know how plate armor was made in medieval times all the videos i found shows modern tools i would also like to know how they got the metal into thin plate back then.
have done just a tiny bit of armoring but nothing advanced.
So I have been siting here pondering and pondering what to do with an old helm that no longer fits. My head apparently has swelled and it is too much a squeeze to pull it over my head.
I came across this video and the steps on making hinges were so clear that I went into the garage and equipped with the basic concepts from this master armorer... I hinged my helm!
Your skill brings me both joy and pain. Joy in the hopes that one day I'll be able to do something so great, and pain in the fact that I don't have room for a proper forge...
Prowd Europeen handcraft that soon will be just for the few as a hobby all the time we outsource all craftsmanship. Good work mister. Its always nice to see good handcraft in action.

Eee. I've heard of handcrafting but not crafting your hands. Watch your digits, mate. You only have 10 of them.
