When did this turn into a pissing match? I've been in the SCA and even went to one really bad LARP event, but come on zeraph, that shit is geeky as hell. Is it fun? Yes. Is it dorky/geeky as hell? Yes. Is it for everyone? Hell no. Planster likes modern combat, we like ancient forms of combat. He likes M4s and body armor. We like swords and plate mail. Let's leave it at that.
Anyway, I understand the need for repair, but if I can learn how to make it from scratch, then I would know how to repair it. As for historically accurate, I could really care less. We have modern materials now, I'd like to lean more to leaner/stronger armor than "this is how they did it back then".
I'd also love to be able to test some of these ideas with real applications of force. Put it on a dummy and shoot an arrow at it, hit it with a sword, ect.
If this was for SCA fighting, I'd make a suit of light bucket armor and be done with it. This is different, this is a little pet project that may never get used, but I'd like to have it.
