The joy of having a wife who works from home:
The measurement at the first pin (on the helmet only, no faceplate) = 22"
The measurement at the first pin (on the helment, including faceplate) = 31"
Let me know if you would like anything else.

Re: Medieval Fry Pan
Chef - Yes, there were cast items, but I don't believe this technique made its way into the kitchen until the late 16th c/early 17th c.
I've used ceramic fry pans and owned them in the past, but for what i'm looking for, the metal ones fit my needs.
Thanks!

Thanks for the replies! Thomas - of course - no cast iron, but I will say that I did attend an open fire cooking class where they taught people to cook with the Cast Iron - not my cup of tea...

Cross Posted from Classifieds section - more information/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Rana, A few tricks to help them be staggered... 1) Have your top and bottom eyelets (holes) align. Then on one side go up 1/2 the distance to the next hole then the full distance. i.e. On the right, the 1st hole is only 1/2" above the base hole the 2nd hole and the rest of the holes are 1" apart.

Wife of James B. here - he had the basics right. I use the earthenware (glazed or unglazed) beginning at room temp and slowly move it towards the fire - in the dirt next to the fire until it warms up. I can't really tell you how long it takes to heat up as each piece behaves differently depending on...
