Fantastic work Eric... Thoroughly enjoy you videos and the skill you have working metal into exquisite armor. I'd also like to add that I appreciate your English commentary, your English is extremely good! Thanks for sharing...
I know it isn’t a traditional method for armor, but you can TIG brass and steel together with a silicon bronze filler rod. The melting point is low enough it flows almost like solder, but without the mess. Add a hole in the steel as you would a rivet and give a light tack weld to the brass from the back/inside. The risk, of course, is burning the thin metal after all that amazing work. Your work is beautiful. I don’t want to ruin by the suggestion, but I’m so glad to see it popping up in my feed!!
Hey, i just wanted to thank you for sharing your work. I 've always been interested in armour, but it was when i first saw your video on making a sallet that i fell in love with this craft. Your videos are a great resource for aspiring armourers that have a master. Right now i was working on the design for my first helmet, an armet, i mostly know how i'm going to make everything, but i really could use some advice with the crest.
I'm starting to modify an old sallet/bevor and was looking to add something special to it. This type of brass edging might be the ticket. Thanks for the inspiration again.
I'm surprised at just how thick the brass is! I always thought they'd use very thin brass sheet. Though I guess it makes perfect sense - you don't have to roll the edge if the brass is nice and thick.
You are a master craftsman myfriend. Always a good day when i see a new Dubé video show up.

Wow I have been armouring for 2 years and never seen invisible rivets, very helpful!

Glad to hear that :)
Nice way of adding the trim. Do miss your posts. It was very nice to see a new one. I hope you lets us all know what your current projects are soon!
Welcome back ! C’est cool de te revoir après autant d’années !
Woo hoo! Love seeing new videos from you again! ;-)

J'adore le français québécois mais j'apprécie l'anglais :)

Invincible riveting, now I like the sound of that ;^>
I love this content! Please keep it coming!
Super travail :)
Have you tried heating up the brass and then dropping it in water? It will make it more pliable and resistant to cracking.
It depends on the type of brass. Some of them will crack in any try of bending(no matter hot or cold), and some of them are soft and easy to form.
Please male more videos sir
I can't afford brass ...
so I spray them with gold paint :D
