Welcome to the Armour-smithing Wiki!
now with added pattern archive
Armoursmithing Wiki is to enable and empower armorers to preserve their knowledge, techniques, and patterns in an ongoing, publicly available and editable form. Many of the old posts on the AA no longer have functioning images or are very difficult to find due to the archives search function requiring a degree of skill to use. This has led to a lot of basic topics coming up again and again whilst advanced topics get little discussion. You're welcome to browse for a while, if you wish, or make an account to start editing pages. We have 19 articles on a range of armour-related topics. If you have any questions, first see the FAQ. If this doesn't help, find an active admin. They'll point you in the right direction.

Featured Pattern Late 14thC Spaulders by Craig Nadler Finished Spaulders by Craig Nadler using his Spaulder Pattern. Spaulders are always touted as the project for beginners as they teach all the basic skills in a neat simple project that isn't daunting for a beginner and can be completed with basic tools. Craig's pattern comes with basic instructions and order for construction although a beginner will still need to seek aditional instructions to understand which pieces need dishing/raising and how deep to do them.
