TETSUGENDO Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 Jeff, Best of luck on your journey, it is one many of us take....at least once. Be forwarned, considerable expense, much time, and copious quantities of patience are required to complete it. Despite the financial folly this undertaking generally is, few will recoup the cost of full koshirae, the satisfaction is considerable. Carry on, -S- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help is most welcome thanks jeff Jeff What Steven said is quite true, and knowing this I did it with a lot of help and advice from my friends. All skills sourced here in the UK. I now own a complete themed set of quality fittings, doing exactly what they were intended to do. Nothing was abused or dishonoured in the project, cost, profit and resale value irrelevant. I wish you well in your endeavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
