Rekr manged to snag an old breastplate for use in his medieval kit but it was too broad and had no straps .

With the help of James of Sons of fire blacksmithing the chest was able to be narrowed slightly enabling a better range of movement for two handed sword use and new mounting points for leather straps were drilled in ready for Anders of Fortune Leather craft  to put on some very fine straps to hold it onto Rekr mighty chest.

This breast plate came in handy at the Battle of Tewksbury this year (2024)and due to the expert crafting shall continue to come in hand for many years to come
