Why not have a page for kit?
For my character Zak, I am going to be creating a lot of shinies involving bits of chain (much like the ones Inquisitor/Nathaniel
? has). If anyone wishes to provide advice or assistance (I'd like to borrow something that can cut chain of the requisite grade, for a start), or would like me to make them some similar shinies, I'd be quite happy to do so. --

- I've not seen the ones you refer to, do you mean doing something clever to lengths of chain, or making something chainmail like from some links? I want to do shiny King's Chain stuff with the nice coloured links, but that involves buying some. Do we want to add things here like a guide on how to make a simple set of leather armour (buy some rivets, leather and tools from Leprevo, get some decent scissors and a hammer and have at it)? --Snapdragon
- I mean doing something clever with lengths of chain, really - ornamental looking rather than armour, first on the upper arms only then something to cover the body as well. And shinies to hang from the belt. Also, yes, a good guide to how to make leather armour would be cool. --Requiem
- I have lots of coloured chain. And coloured chainmail rings. Will prod you on irc about it. --Pufferfish
I, er, make lots of kit. So I'm not quite sure where to start. Possibly by listing all the things I have.
-Enough material, thread, braid, trimming etc (and sewing machine, and expertise) to make pretty much any item of clothing you might want.
-An embroidery machine which *will* be taught to do Brotherhood of Magic crests, etc.
-Leather, studs, rivets etc for making armour, belts, pouches, etc. Things to emboss writing onto said leather.
-Beads. Lots and lots of beads.
-Jewellery findings, chain, jewellery-size chainmail rings in manymanymany colours
-(tea-dyed) IC-looking paper
So, er, yeah. Hit me if you want anything. Or advice on how to make or obtain stuff yourself. I'll probably write a how to guide At Some Point.
