Helmet liners for Jaeger zu Pferde and Kurassier metalhelme

[Pontrest]

Hello everyone. I'm looking for someone who is able to make helmet liners for the Jaeger zu Pferde and Kurassier metalhelme. I'm told Brian Loree is able to remanufacture these, but I can't seem to figure out how to email or contact him on here directly. Any help with this is appreciated.

Thank you

I have never done a reproduction liner for any lobster tail metal helmet. I don’t know whether they are different than the typical ones on felt and leather shells. I do know that they were stitched to a stiff band of leather then attached to the shell with split brad prongs. If this band of leather is missing then there is no way for me to even attempt it. I have templates for the common OR liner and the “tin helmets”. The tin helmet liner is stitched to a felt ring which again is held in place with split brads. If that band is gone, nothing can be done at least by me. I can be Private Messaged by simply taping my helmet icon in the margin of this page.

I actually have a complete liner from a JzP helmet, which I suspect would be the same or very similar to the Kurassier helmet. I'll try to pm you, but so far it hasn't worked for me.

you cannot message anyone because you need to have at least 20 messages before being able to pm. It's to prevent scammers.

Louis, thank you for the clarification. Apparently I have several posts until I am a trusted agent.

Here is the original liner from the JzP helmet (I suspect regiments 1-7), and some photos of the ~85% restored helmet.

This is what the helmet looked like prior to beginning work on it.

This is the helmet mid-restoration...

And the helmet currently.

My apologies Pontrest, I forgot about our post restrictions here. We had a problem with scammers PMing members trying to sell their wares. Here is my contact email:
