Well Folks, this is were Im at about now on Restoration. The Prussian discs and strap are repro. Having a hard time finding accurate Chinstrap. this one is nice quality but a bit thick and big(I can cut down)(it was listed as "Pickelhaube" not M16 strap, like the other one I bought, so a little disappointed) . The orig. I have is damaged and brittle and hopes of finding another I am doubting. Also need orig. Discs. A Brass spike would also be nice. But as it is I am very happy with it and it looks great in the display.

You have done a good job on that, and you are right that chinstrap is a bit thick and needed a shave,
