Excellent students all of them. She nodded to Casimir, perhaps she had glossed over the materials or spoke too quickly. She will have to remember to slow herself down! She has been reminding herself of this since she was small.
"Materials! The hunters typically take their hides and kills to the smokehouse on the beach." She said, trying carefully to even out her tone so it was a little less exuberant and overexcited. "From there they work to tan the hides and furs, dry some of the meat and select a few hides for the hardening process. When they have a load ready, they deliver it to the storerooms where I've set up a nice little organization system that they... try their best to remember." She said with a half chuckle.
"The plate is some flat steel sheets I found in storage. I'm still working out how to smelt it and make our own sheets, but I can weld them together and hammer them enough to make them the shape we need." She nodded and grabbed an already premade shin guard.
"Now, this is already shaped for someone, I just need to add the straps!" She pulled out a thick strap of leather and an iron nail. "We need to punch a hole in the plate-" To which she carried the plate over to a tool that when pressed down punched a small hole into the metal and brought it back, "Then we take our leather strap, punch the nail through where we need it." She punched the nail through the leather and lifted it up to show her students. "Then we place the leather and the nail through the hole to the nail comes out the other side. Flip it nail side up, grab a hammer and flatten the nail from the other side, making it as flush or loose between the strap and the plate as you like!" She went about holding the hammer and making the loud ping ping ping ping noise of the hammer on the nail, flattening it and securing the leather to the plate.
"There you have it! Leather strap on some armor!" She'd teach them about buckles too and by the time they were done here, both Wynter and Casimir would have their own armor! And Wylan would now know how to restrap his armor if he needed to!
