A friend asked me a question and I answered it as best I could but I thought It was worthy of discussion. >Theresa asked, >Hi Doug. Do you by any chance know how a great helm would have been strapped? Do you mean (1) in terms of a chinstrap? Or (2) in terms of strapped to a bascinet or body armour o...

Your total is $18.40

I had two but I used one on a woven belt for myself year ago.

I agree. I would cry too but it is hard to make tears out of dust.

This week--Make me an offer! This is the last of my etching work! About 20 years ago I used to make etched jewelry for sale. These pieces are made from brass (more yellow) and bronze (more red). They were available with and without epoxy based enamel. Eventually I moved into casting and the etching...

Master Peter of North Star Armouries taught me to etch but Master Ark inspired me to cast.

Since there was no desire for cheese and you have paid consider them yours. I'll pack it up this afternoon.

Like the way Master Ark cast the Strickland Brooch with his own unique design idea.

Arks stuff inspired me to learn to cast. I used to spend a lot at "Ark's cart" on gifts for my wife.

Brooches #3,& 5 are on hold[/url]

I have money for #1 and #4 so they are gone. I have a request to hold #8 but no money until July so I will have to pass until there is money (sorry). I got a PM for 2#8s with cheese. I only have 1 #8 but I can put cheese on it if you would like. A kraft single would fit quite well but I don't consid...
