Adam Savage Meets Real Armored Gauntlets!

Published on 12 Mar 2023 / In Film & Animation

Despite having made his own full suit of armor, Adam has never actually held a historical piece of armored gauntlet. That changes when he visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Arms and Armor conservation lab, where armorer Ted Hunter brings out five pieces of 16th Century gauntlets for Adam to handle and inspect. Varied in their construction, purpose, and ornate style, these beautiful pieces of real armor are each more stunning than the last!

Yeah - the gold and mercury inlay on the acid etched steel...... Mercury Fumes.... and skin contact. People are extraordinarily clever with doing all sorts of things....

The joy of being able to make and hammer in - with rounding over the heads, of rivets, with a ball pein hammer = very exciting. https://content.instructables.....com/F0A/IUD9/JOYNWJ9

I have fetish for hammers..... polished and oiled wooden handles... Precision compound radius domed heads.... to work the buckles out of steel plates with almost no indentation... Swoon... I have just put up 3 videos on rounding (crowned) hammer (faces)
