How to make Kastenbrust Leg Armor

[@ssg25uret6]

It never ceases to amaze me the things you can do with metal. It’s tough but forgiving. If you fuck something up it can be cut out and replaced. You can add pieces without living a trace of a seam. It’s just the ultimate medium to shape and you my friend are a master.

Imagine antique nights fighting beasts in the wild effectively with these armors

[@BartBeswick]

Simply brilliant. Very well done. I will integrate this video into my classes when teaching new armourers. Thank you!

[@jaburu4230]

please teach me

[@axeman2638]

it's hard work even with modern tools and materials, just imagine how much harder it was to make this sort of stuff without power tools hundreds of years ago.

[@philipstevenson5166]

more assistants - and child labour was cheaper than electricity

[@ALCHILLTV]

you really are a very good channel! and you deserve much more attention on this social network

[@reddragoon7981]

I will be making splint cuisses and greaves this weekend. I will definitely use your methods for making the knee protection. Flawless work as always.

[@roblaurent2756]

A true master craftsman. Stunning work.

[@Charlie-fe7qh]

You're a very talented metal worker...

[@Xoroxouselric]

Damn, that's awesome! How are you getting the brass color onto the steel? Are you able to do this with other colors as well? Because i'm looking at trying to do a black and brass colored armor piece in the future.

[@ethanjones5623]

A little bit of a wire brush rubs off on the piece, aided by the heat he applies before brushing. You can kinda get this effect without heat, but it won't go on as easy or last as long. It's a brass brush he's using, so just coating the steel with brass.

I don't think this armor is hardened so you should be able to Temper color it... I think. links to wikipedia: 1.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tempering_standards_used_in_blacksmithing.JPG 2.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempering_%28metallurgy%29

[@TheMasterOfCornedy]

@@pyrotech8504 the armor is hardened. He did it in an oil bath

I hit subscribe as soon as I seen the thumbnail and read you channel name.

[@NouchkadeVries]

This is godlike lvl armor. Awesome!

[@hartssquire9386]

Hahahaha, I'm sitting here watching the end of the video wearing a chest plate and right arm sleeve, made of cardboard and duct tape as a Halloween costume/example for the real one that I plan on making over the next year. I saw the very end of the video where he's wearing leg plate helmet and has a shield, and I realized I'm wearing all the armor he's missing from that set

[@Top5Iguano]

Sounds cool

[@7thgfgh]

What gauge steel do you use

[@fester73666]

Amazing work 👍

[@pestilenceghoul5781]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

[@twistedtrail8414]

How do you turn the steel gold? Is there something special about the buffing wheel or what's in the buffing wheel?

[@tomasbukvic8894]

Is this spring steel? It doesnt brake when cold dished?

[@duskyflathead4483]

Yeah, greaves were made out of spring steel

[@basiliskberdark5288]

Выглядит эпично!)

[@dejectedpathogen4437]

where do people get steel sheet from?

[@O-_-O_0-_-0]

Красиво! Но смущает, что при ударе сверху в колено нижняя часть поножей может повредить верх голеностопа.

[@DavidM-um2uk]

I have questions: How do you guard against repetitive stress injuries? If you punched somebody with your hammer hand, how hard would they die? Are you an immortal who's been making armor for centuries? Because your skill level and knowledge of ancient Ukrainian magick would seem to suggest that.

[@juanperalta-j2k]

Excelente ❤❤❤👽

[@Ldog2016]

So freaking talented please let me know if i can message you on facebook or anything with more questions about forging

[@axeman2638]

if there is such a thing as talent it is the gift of having the passion and dedication to put in the time required to master something, not an innate ability to be good at it.

[@ahmetgunek6833]

Çok zahmetli bir iş

[@diletantt]

Здравствуйте, а у вас есть выкройки этого дела или вы с нуля их делали? Хочу попытаться сделать что-то похожее из титана, колено конечно же надо будет сильно упрощать. Спасибо за внимание)

[@ЛивонскийОрден-с2к]

Да мне тоже нужны шаблоны откуда он их берет я хз?

[@felix.der.ritter]

Why does my knee cup forms that easy? Maybe I need more skill.
