As usual, Matt takes the prize -- congratulations Markus.

And, like everyone else who posted, we all have similar items on order from Matt and are looking forward to posting our own pieces here on RAT.

Great work on the Seg, Matt.

Chisel cut fittings? Less fussy about perfect edges and the use of smaller rivets! Very nice indeed!

Matt - that is a very nice piece of armor!

Hibenicus thinks so, too:
