Hi Andy,

I think it looked worse than it was, a couple of stiches did the job. Actually I was ripped by some part of the visor hinges of the inside of the helmet that had woked loose during the fight. About as stupid a "gladiatorial combat wound" as you can get it, I suppose :-P P

Great Info Martin! I am planning on putting together a med kit myself. Do you yourself or do you know of anyone that sells the medical tools? I don't have a work shop set up as of yet. So working / tooling brass is out Big Grin

Hi Brian,

I could certainly make medical instruments for you, but since you are in the US, probably Matt L here on RAT would be a better address for you to turn to. Check the Marketplace for things he makes!
