[Ponte Alto] Repair damage to helm

[cunian at citlink.net]

I did helm-padding for a while, really just trying to get beginners on the field, but it's not a thing armorers commonly do.  I'm not sure what kind of neck guard you had.  If a camail, it gets quite expensive, (hundreds); if a gorget not so much, but there is quite a range of values.  Maybe bring it to a fighter practice after Pennsic and we can get more of an idea of what you had that needs to be replaced?  Are you looking to find somebody local to take the whole project in hand, or just trying to get a clue of what to tell the insurance folks?

Subject: [Ponte Alto] Repair damage to helm

Recently my basement got flooded, and my heavy weapon helm got heavily mildewed. The metal is ok, but the leather chin cup, neck guard, straps and internal padding are a total write off.

Does anyone know a local armor who can give me a price on repairing the entire damage? Replace everything so it completely combat ready? My insurance will cover this, but I need official quote.

Thanks!
