Armour stand

The Armour stand is a piece of furniture that can be built in the Workshop of a player-owned house with the Construction skill.

This piece of furniture is useful in its ability to repair armours. The following items can be used on the stand to repair them for a cost based on the player's Smithing level:
 * Broken arrows
 * Broken staves
 * Rusty swords
 * Damaged armour
 * Broken armour
 * Barrows equipment
 * Nex armour
 * Zaryte bow
 * Drygore rapier, mace and longsword and the off-hand drygore rapier, mace and longsword
 * Superior versions of tetsu armour, sea singer armour and death lotus armour
 * The frozen key
 * Ascension crossbows
 * Seismic wand and singularity
 * Noxious scythe, Noxious longbow, and Noxious staff

It costs less to repair Barrows equipment and Ancient armour at an armour stand compared to paying Bob in Lumbridge. Stat boosts do not affect the price of repair. Use the following calculator to figure the costs.

The formula used to calculate the cost at a repair stand is:

$$\left(1-\frac{Smithing\ Level}{200}\right ) \times normal\ repaircost$$

A player with a Smithing level of 60, for instance, would pay 70% of normal cost:

$$1-\frac{60}{200}=0.7=70%$$

Simply put, every 2 levels you have in smithing, is 1% cheaper to repair armour using this compared to any NPC vendor.

Trivia

 * In a hidden update on 23 March 2010, the process of repairing Barrows armour is now with fewer clicks than before, with only 2 clicks required to fully repair the armour.
