metal shaping
My neighbour is into Medieval stuff .. he made a suit of armour , hand made it from flat sheets . took him 6 months of beating , dressing, shaping , edging .. it's amazing what you can do , takes patience and lots of time . He does talks at schools and military historical groups .
After all that, he ended up buying a ready to use one .. they are made in India .. 11 year old kids spend all day shaping metal sheets into armour suits . they cost 4 to 5 K $ here . The medieval re-enacting thing is growing here ... they have festivals and tournaments and jousting too . They hold banquets .. all the food is genuine medieval style .
