You look at yer oldy kludge armor made of short planking n two wickerwork baskets and feel really glad it wuzzint YOU wot got chewed on.
Between the brainy liddle shit and the muttmonster, you might be dead more than twice over if not for the spiffygood kludgeware you had on.
If the kidd n mutt got any luckyyer, or teamed up somehow, things would have gotten real dicey for YOU.
Good fing you fixxd Stumpy first, <span class="mu-g">hheh</span>. That was the only correct decision.
Imagine getting grappled by Doggface while Stumpy's slotten arrows in yer from a window. Then imagine that while you wuz busy geddun chewed n shott, the liddle shit runnen orf to get the TownBoss.

While patching yerself and doin yer Ceremony, you daydream what and what-with you're finna make.
It will be tuffyyer dan yer old one, being made of meddl. A little more weight, but lots less bulky than wood, so it will move around the same. And having proppa screws n fastnuts is heaps better than just string n chikky wire, so it'll eat a few whacks without falling to pieces. Or so many pieces.
Having the Dagga is a big help: just rest it on summink a few seconds wiv yer hand on it, and it starts to eat through thin mundane metals, at a rate of ~1mm per 3 seconds. Faster than sawing and drilling.
For a base you start by resizing some quilt armor material: halve it into a shirt n skirt, then take orf the sleeves from the shirt, leaving a vest.
With a tenting needle and a thinny cord you get to sewing ringmail and hardened leather patches on. It's dismaying how easily you can pick the ringmail apart; a goody crossbolt or semi-serious pointy will get through these, no question. At least it might slow some slashies...
For the breastplate you got a Humie shoulderplate fixed over a cast iron frying pan with no handle; for a belly and lower back you get two greaves beaten flat, then strapped to each other making a kindy corset; for the backplate, you run part of the chestplate rigging and part of the corset rigging through the straphoops onna goody-ish buckler 's too shiny n light; tinny eluminuminum and wood batter. At least the punchboss is bronze....
Rusted trowelheads for shoulderplates, leather kneeguard wiv ringz n plates sewn on ferra helmet, and one of the quilt sleeves cut up into tuckeroos n chappies.
