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 such as Barrows equipment.

It costs less to repair Barrows equipment 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.
