  1. Completed watching the course. There was one moment of buffering but other than that it went very well. I will need to watch again while I’m actually crafting. All seemed straight forward just need to pick up a few things then I’ll be ready to go. I wish that viewing didn’t have to be in sequential order. Actually just wanted to start with the bracers but had to watch almost all first. kind of a pain as a beginner but it’s okay now that the rough start is done and over. Will continue to advance. Thank you! just what I been looking for. For a very long time.

  2. Great tutorials! These are easy to complete, but provide an excellent blank canvas for creativity. One improvement I’m working on is a covering for the foot, as my LARP gives no HP for any type of shoe, only armor. In that same vein, I’m also working on to adapt some leather work gloves to protect my hands. As it is, I’m in a time crunch, building 2 suits of armor (1 for me, 1 for my wife – so thanks for including the female breastplate!) in just 7 weeks. I hope to re-build these in time adding more creative flourishes to the next set.

  3. I think that this is a great tutorial for the beginner. The content and patterns are easy to follow. I like that you describe the tools and and techniques used. The tidbits, such as, tapping down the bacon edges are a nice touch so that the pieces have some flare to them. Thank you again. It was enjoyable.
