*No longer for sale, I have an armorer who will help modify it to fit me.* It kills me to sell this helm, but it does not fit. Stainless SCA spagen with blackened panels. Helm by Sir Tierghnan the Hound, of Atenvelt. Grill by Brian Dimmock (Master Lewellyn). Should fit a 24.5 inch head fine. Maybe a...

They shipped me an order a year or so ago. I emailed Dale, and he was quicksmart.

Ceawlin Alreding

That guy has been a PITA for years.

Ceawlin Alreding

Good call. The work you did inspired a lot of people, and upped the game.

Ceawlin Alreding

I'm not an armorer, or in the Phillipines, but my wife is from Cebu, and has relatives through out the islands, including Manila. She's pretty knowledgable about getting stuff there cheap. Feel free to drop me a line.

Ceawlin Alreding

They've sold

Ceawlin Alreding

Okay, good!

Ceawlin Alreding

Update- Aaron, I found some greaves (different maker). I sent you a PM if you are still interested.

Ceawlin Alreding

Hi Aaron. Sorry, no. Torvaldr is still selling greaves though. You could place an order with him, and save some money on the cuisses. And some times his greaves do come up for sale. You could wear these with just about any other over-the-knee greaves. I was going to use these as hidden armor but the...

Ceawlin Alreding

Torvalds leather cuisses. Heavy, tank leather. Made for a tall, skinny bugger. 18 inches high, roughly 20 inches around. The straps are missing the buckles, its an easy fix. Lightly scuffed, the previous owner used them lightly, if at all. I need a fast $100 for them, they go $150 new. Please sound ...

Ceawlin Alreding

Dammit, Yojimbo, I mistyped my email address. It's ceawlin_alreding@comcast.net. I still want the shirt. Just send me a PayPal invoice at that address, and give me a heads up. Sorry about that.

EDIT- money sent.

Ceawlin Alreding

What the hell. I'm currently working at the Renn Faire, and I don't have a shirt. PayPal okay? ceawin_alreding@comcast.net is the best and fastest way to get in touch with me, I don't check AA PMs often.

Ceawlin Alreding

New Helm still is not finished ( camail) , but apart from a few tweaks, I am happy with the fit.

Ceawlin Alreding

Bumpity Bumpity bump.

Ceawlin Alreding

By all that's Holy, use the helm halves! The wear and tear you'd save on your body is worth it. (The thing I've noticed about this spring steel movement is how easily the metal moves. It's going to save a generation of armorers! Too bad it doesn't work for helms)

Ceawlin Alreding

You know what? Bump, that's what.

Ceawlin Alreding

I will drag out the Maille , camera and yardstick tomorrow.

Ceawlin Alreding

So that sorts out the Zinc issue. If you shoot me an email at ceawlin_alreding@comcast.net, I will send off some pictures. Posting pics on the archive drives me nuts.

Ceawlin Alreding

I have a riveted mild steel zinc coated Maille shirt I that I might be convinced to part with. I'm six foot three, 250 lbs with a 50 inch chest and 40 inch waist. It's 3/4 sleeve, and a heavy bugger. There are one or two rings with some rust, but no holes in it. I'd like $200 plus the cost of a flat...

Ceawlin Alreding

Nobody bit on this, I'm going to keep it, and make two kits out it for the combat/seige folks. I tried to delete it, but can't seem to figure it out. Did not want somebody seeing the thread 3 years from now and being dissapointed.

Ceawlin Alreding

Where is the tent located, please? It helps to have an idea when determining shipping costs.
Thanks

Ceawlin Alreding

That would be Max Engle from North Star Armory. I have a few of his Anglo-Saxon bits and pieces. That little piece of information just cinched the quality of the helm. Buy with confidence, both the product and seller are top notch.

I handled these gauntlets yesterday. Lew made me give them back. These things are off the hook!

Ceawlin Alreding

What size head will this fit, please?

Ceawlin Alreding

Cut and Thrust kit. Helm by Master Glandydd Rhys Mordwyn of Eldormere sometime around 2000. Perf mask and curtain added by Master Llewellyn. I bought the maille from Mark H in, I dunno, 2006? Bought the gamby used on the Archive. I'm wearing the Wrong Trousers in this picture because I forgot my Fig...

Ceawlin Alreding

Forwarded it to our group's page. GLWS

Ceawlin Alreding

I sent you a PM. I might have something that would work for you.

Ceawlin Alreding

Hey Tancred, I got your PM, the payment shows up in my PayPal account as sent but not accepted yet. I will watch my PM 'so for your reply, and if it is not sorted out, I will get you my phone number so we can hash this out. Sorry for the Snafu, I can't imagine what the glitch is.

Ceawlin Alreding

I will take the shoes, the ones in the first picture (the early period ones) for $35.
I will PM you for PayPal address.

http://ironmongerarmory.com/stock-helms/munitions-bascinet-helms When you are just starting you have to buy/ make EVERYTHING. It takes time. And you want to fight. There is a need for reasonably priced starter helms. I like the Ironmonger Munitions Bascinet. It's a very reasonable price, he builds t...

Ceawlin Alreding

Thorfinr. You were speaking with Thorfinr. He made a bunch of "ring mail" armor in the 90's. It was not historically accurate to today's standards, but looked okay in a "hey, I'm a badass Viking" sort of way. I wore that kit for a year or so, and wouldn't actually recommend it for people starting ou...

Ceawlin Alreding

Hi I'm Llewlyn. My stupid peer trick are to be able to tell when Ceawlin's wallet is empty, and make helmets too small for his head.

Ceawlin Alreding

Sigh. I was setting up camp across the street from the Deed as it was going on. My truck died the morning we left, and my wife got called into work on her day off, so we got there late . And we had to set up the Baronial Pavilion because of Caitlin's Vigil. I so wanted to be able to even just watch ...

Ceawlin Alreding

Ironmonger, Ironmonger, Ironmonger. Munitions Bascinet, with grill $135. Bomb-proof. Made to size. Cheap. Safe. Accidentprone makes a good starter helm too.(He's here on the Archive, but I don't think he has a web presence.) But seriously, it's your brain. Get something made specifically for the act...
