So my friends and I have been playing for a few months now and decided we would work on some small bits of armor. So we pooled our cash and I got a piece of leather.
Here is my first attempt at a pretty basic lace up bracer.
I think it looks pretty decent for a first try. However, my problem is the eyelets/grommets. The ones I got were large enough diameter for lacing, but would not go all the way thru the leather to attach. Most of these go about halfway thru the leather and then just cut into the leather itself to kind of hold itself in. Doesn't seem to me like they will last well and definitely not what I expected.
So my question is, what eyelets/grommets do people use or do they use something completely different or just don't use any at all?
Thanks for any feedback or responses!
