My problem child, I have been working on this armor stand for two weeks on and off, it started out as a very easy build when I saw the plans online yet it seems that it had plans to be the bane of of life. I am still working to get this stand to work better to deal with plate armor stand needed hold up at least 70 pounds which what the weight is for a full suit of armor. So far it has broken once under the weigh where I had to reinforce the stand and start over again, now after having build it twice again I hopping that it will hold better, if this will not hold I will redesign the whole thing and make it stronger to hold the weight of plate armor. If found the plan for this stand here

Nice work. Spent quite a few years running around wacking and bashing in the Society for Creative Anachronism myself.
