  • The idea behiend the "Armour Notes" is to answer questions before they are posed on techniques or general "how the hell do I's" someone who see your gear and is inspired may ask. Little details are important to someone who does not study your era. Explationations of how the 'documentation pics' affect your kit are essential.
