You begin to study the instructions and slowly understand how metal armor reinforcing works.  You must first disassemble portions of the armor by PULLing it with pliers.  Then, it must be placed on an anvil and POUNDED while holding a hammer and tongs to adjust the piece for accepting additional protective leather strips.  You may have to PUSH a bellows or PUSH fuel with a shovel to keep the fire hot during this process.  At the end you will have to POUR some metalworking oil to protect the metal.  Reinforcement results in a protection increase, at the expense of weight and a small amount of hindrance.
