Prussian See Battalion Tschako

[Doug B]

Here it is all repaired and back in my display case. Photos are a bit dark as it was night but you get the idea. A beautiful Tschako.

Great piece - thank you for showing.

Finished the first pass this afternoon but ran out of sunlight. Besides, it is often necessary to take a break from a project. Otherwise, the frustration can grow and you want to throw it against a wall. That is when you have to put it down and walk away. Not so with this helmet though, things are going well. I will have this done by Sunday.

I hear you my brother !
You would be surprised what stopping to get a cup of coffee will do.
Great job and a great helmet !

Thank you gentlemen, it was a pleasure to work on such a rare piece of History.

Hi Brian, if I didn't live so far away, I’d love to learn that—your work is top-notch. I’d love to give a second life to so many Pickelhaubes that are currently just sitting aside or, frankly, headed for the trash. Unfortunately, I live across the pond—on the wrong side, I suppose! Great work.
