    How to restore a big medal-bar

    Some years ago I got this EKII 1914 (makers mark "K.A.G.") from ebay. It was cut off from a big medal-bar, for what reason ever. Now I've decided to restore the single medal-bar.
    Here are the parts I used:

    A piece of felt and a piece of cloth. Backing is thick paper and a safety pin as pinback. Also some cotton for padding.

    First step. Sewing the cloth with the medal onto the paper-backing.

      Step 2. Fixing the ribbon on the backing.

        Step 3. Fixing the felt as backing and using the cotton for padding. Finally adding the pinback.

          Completed medal-bar. And now we wait for the flood of selfmade paper-backing medal-bars at ebay.

            Hi Jens,

            you seems to be very much gifted!

            I still have a pair of socks which must be stuffed!

              If you want them padded with a pinback? Her damit!

                Abteilung "Jugend forscht" oder "Soldat und Technik"? Ich sehe ungeahnte Talente!

                nicely made! Now a wife can never say again, that a man cannot handle a needle!

                Beste Grüße
