Thanks, grassle! I really did have a blast! :-D The con was certainly a wonderful place to be if you love Daleks. Tribbles too, for that matter. And, of course, I could never forget those hilarious references to Doctor Who in the sixth story (http://grassle.livejournal.com/22994.html) of the Lestrade and Lucinda verse (http://grassle.livejournal.com/tag/lucinda%20gregson).

The chainmail is made from real metal links, though I believe njc2007 said it was aluminum. I got a chance to hold the coif, so I know it's quite light. njc2007 orders kits off a site that provides the pattern and materials. I can't remember the URL, but I can get it for you if you're interested.
