Greetings all!  This page is to provide information on the lamellar plates I am selling.  They are for fighting in the SCA, as well as other organizations.

How to order

Email me with what you are looking for.  Please include style of plate, quantity, and the material.  Please include if you are in the US, Canada, or other.  Once I have all the information, I'll send an invoice with a secure link to enter credit card information.  If you have any questions, please ask!

Due to the wide variety and materials I offer on lamellar plates, I will be keeping very few in stock.  Instead, I will make your plates to order.  The turn around time right now is 3-4 weeks from the date payment is made.  Larger orders may require additional time.

Cost:
Aluminum (0.063) - $.55
Stainless Steel (20g) - $.55

301 full hard(spring) stainless steel (0.031) - $.95

UPDATE:  I am out of spring stainless.  I will be looking for a new supplier again.  This last batch of material was not flat and it caused too many cutting issues.

I do accept credit cards for payments, but not through paypal.

On January 22, 2012, the USPS raised their flat rate prices.  The prices listed here are the new prices.

Shipping anywhere in the US is $11.35 via USPS flat rate box with delivery confirmation.

All orders over 1000 plates will get bulk pricing. It will be $.05 off per plate. So 0.063 thick aluminum plates that are normally $.55 apiece will be $.50 when 1000 or more are ordered.  This applies to most materials.  Styles can be combined, so if you'd like 500 of two different styles, but the material is the same, then the bulk rate applies.

I have no problems shipping internationally.  Using the USPS flat rate boxes, the cost to Canada and Mexico is $32.95 per box, and to all other countries for $47.95.  There is a 20 pound maximum for international shipments, so shipments heavier will be broken down into the appropriate number of boxes.  It is more cost effective this way rather than one large box.

I can only make it to the post office on Fridays or Saturdays.  

Variations on these plates will run the same price as long as nothing is radically changed. 

These are the plates that I currently have drawn and modeled.  If you'd like changes or have a specific design not listed, just email me a scale drawing or a drawing with all dimensions (hole size, hole location, etc...) and I'll process it. 

If you need an estimate of the number of plates needed, please include the amount of square feet that you're trying to cover.
