Re: We just lost Tom Justus.
I have not been on here in many years but I was Toms long time apprentice. I put my hammers down when I started a family and moved along career wise but we have always remained friends and colleagues. He was like an older brother to me. I will miss him dearly. This loss hits me so deeply and persona...

14 Ga Great helm for sale
I just put this up on ebay if anyone is interested. I made it several years ago, it has been sitting on a shelf and just decided to get rid of it. It has some minor surface rust but should be no problem to clean up with a quick polish or sanding whatever you choose. It was originally high polish but...

Good point, I did not realize shipping with UPS was only 15$ I had listed that price with shipping being more than that. That being the case I will drop then to $150 and whoever wants them all 3 together pays shipping. If shipping turns out more than 15$ we can work out a deal to split the cost of s...

Could have used, would have used and did use are entirely different things. I have to agree with what has been said, not good to decide what you want and grasp for a means to justify it. That being said lots of folks wear all kinds of leather in the SCA and claim to portray this and that. Fine to do...

$75 for 25 vervelles @ $3 each Yipes! That sounds like an excessive price. There's no way a vervelle should cost that much---is there? I could certainly have them cast for less... Just to clarify for you on prices,,,that is not just the cost of the vervelles.. It also includes mounting them to the ...
