Knights & Armour
Introduction & Index

Before the Heritage Collection gave us suits of Gold and Silver Armour, to have anything similar meant you had to be creative and make your own.  Even now these still look great in the right setting and are so easy to make using the trash barrel method (see tips & tricks) that just about anyone with a few ingots and wood spare can make them.
