I like how the metal arm armor is attached to the padded material and how it goes on like a Vest/Coat and then how it can be tied in the front with a shoestring piece of leather.

If anyone can help me figure out how to put this together I would appreciate it. Also anyone here wanting to create a Medieval Pavilion out of a Canopy. Make sure you get a Canopy with legs that are big around and very strong. Do not use the Easy-Ups. They look cheesy and the roof design is all wrong.

I got a Canopy a couple of years ago from Wal-Mart that will work perfectly. It is 11 x 11 ft. so there will be alot of room when and if I put canvas walls on it. Only use lightweight canvas
as most canopies aren't this strong. The Canopy I got has a perfect pitch on the roof, problem is the company that made them no longer makes them. So you will have to search for a new one.

There is a company called "King Canopy" or something. If you go to the online "Target" store and look under "Garden Canopy". You will find a really nice Canopy that I wish I had. The only thing I don't like about it is that the Misquito netting is sewn into the roof. If I got this canopy I would take the netting out and figure a way to put it on like shower curtains, then take some lightweight canvas (waterproofed) and fix some walls that can be attached like shower curtains. This is the only Canopy I've seen that is worth buying to make a Medieval Pavilion.

One more thing. For those who can't get enough of playing in Medieval times and would like to do it year round as a Hobby. There is a group called the "SCA" or "Society for Creative Anachronism".
