Re: My small contribution
Good to see you here Anders.
A very nice restauration project with the right taste and effort! Better to do it sometimes in that way and enjoy the time to look out for all the details as before spending a high amount of money for a W-SS tunic where you find then might later out all is post war put together and all was not the money worth.

Re: My small contribution
It is a beauty, let me say that i like more the used ones knowing that it was acualy worn on the field than the so called mint ones which were stored, so a really nice cach my friend !!! But there is one thing that bothers me, that is the SS tabs ( perhaps it is just a foto ), they look too new comparing to the tunic, you should found some used SS tabs to give the proper battle look to the tunic !!! Please post some close fotos of that NCO visor !

Thank you Robert.
Yes, I'm learning a lot about the construction of a tunic when I'm doing like this, also, I know this is and always will be a "put together tunic".
But as you say, so are many other tunics, were the owners don't know.
Still, I'm convinced that it'll display nicely when I'm finished, and it is after all a WSS-tunic.
Best,
Anders

Re: My small contribution
Nice work Anders!
I think it is MUCH better to have an old original tunic restored with old original insignia, than to rely on some of the 'mint' examples that appear on a lot of the dealer sites.

Robin, Thanks!
I'm trying to do my best with a limited budget.
Atleast I know what I have and I'm very proud of it! Also, I really enjoy
the hunting, finding the correct insignia, wool, thread etc. You also make a lot of friends while you're searching.
Best,
Anders

On the contrary, the quality is the key thing. Thanks again.
