Ok, I'll be there monday at around 4ish and I would like to make some armor and maybe a little help with my garb too.
Should I bring the materials or should I just bring money?

We have sewing machine so bring cloth or cloths to modify.
Mookie is selling a full hide for $95 and a half hide for $30 both great deals, full is enough for almost full body. Half is enough for bracers-grievs or torso-arm...
four one nine- seven three three-1337
or to hobby loby and grab 1 pack of small pop rivets at $4 each, or 2 bags of regular rivets at $7 (stronger)
the random packs of scraps at hobby lobby are not reliable enough but we can work with what you get.
have an idea of what your character would wear or where you get hit the most and start there.
but i strongly sudgest you work on fighting skills before you worry about armor, without skills you die 1/2 second slower in armor... although mookie's deal wont last forever.

Shameless plug:
Stubbie went stupid and played bank at Tandy and bought 3 hides while they were on sale. Now he has 3 hides sitting in the corner....and is broke. I'll come off 1 for the same $95 as Mookie. If demand is high enough to warrent needing a 2ndary source. I can bring it sunday (sorry for short notice, although this post was just put up today.) /plug
And unless your a REALLY big guy, you should have gods plenty of leather to make FULL body armor outta a whole hide. I mean...5'.5", 260 me has a full suit outta a whole hide. LIl ol' Zero made 2 chest rigs outta 1/2 a hide.

Haha, I see. Well those hides are, supposedly, 22 to 24 sq feet of prime cow covering. Depending on how you construct your rig, you can stretch it out pretty far. If you're good at Tetris, it will aid you in figuring it out ^_^. Obviously solid large plates will eat up your available leather faster than strips, but strips eat up rivets faster (which is a problem if you use copper rivets, 50pk for $18).

best route...
1. get downtown (tall buildings) 2. go west till you find broadway, you cant miss it... unless your not looking 3. go south on broadway, (if the street deadends you went north) 4. after a bit, you will see wild wood liquor on the left and a light in front of you, the next left after the light is Packard, if you pass Wendies turn arround. 5. im on the corner of broadway and packard 6. if you cant find it call me

So I left EVERYTHING there. Fabric, screws, Dap, 3 rolls of foam, the start of my club, and my PVC. So... Yeahh... If it gets built by Wednesday, that's great. If not, I would like to have all of my materials. And if whoever lives there, since apparently several of you do, if you just happen to build my club and shield, that would be pretty cool....
