Thanks bro.

Lol should mention those little details... 12 gage mild steel top, 14 gage mild steel front and back, blackened 14 ga mild steel for the bird. Fit up to a 23.5" head (be mindful of nose room if you have an extra large nose) I would really like to see $300 for it, but will listen to offers. Shipping ...

Also called just spent $337 on a prescription for my little girl and $1100 in repairs to my car so my bank account is in the negatives and I would really like to eat this week so I made this helm.... Someone buy it please

Awesome, thanks

Bump. Still looking for pics from lost boys....

Yep. My 110 welder only has a rocker switch for voltage control (high and low) and even on low I blow holes in anything thinner than 16 gage. Whereas my buddies miller (220) has a rheostat that allows me to dial voltage back to the point that I can run a nice bead on 22 gage. (shielding gas over flu...

Yeah All 3 Are Sold. Happy To Make More Though

accdntprone

Indeed. Plus This Year I Had Something Come Up And Had To Leave So It Was The Only Battle I Got To Fight in.

accdntprone

Awesome.

Working on reducing weight on my kit (not to mention my person). Im going to keep using the same 3 pc elbows but I want to scrap my old steel vambraces for hardened leather. Wouldn't mind replacing my legs with the same.

accdntprone

I can't remember the guys name to save my life, its tovldor or some such. He is here on the archive but he went to Pennsic so he is prob. recovering today...

accdntprone

Interested. Pm me and see what we can work out?

accdntprone

I had kinda picked a 3 on 1 fight with some folks in the house I fight with, the stakes being the other sides bar tab. I didn't intend to loose, but needed to make sure I could cover my bet just in case.

My Opinion On Egg And Dark Victory (Many Here Will Disagree), They Are Ok For Practice. If They Let You Start Playing And Learning, Great. I Wouldn't Be Caught Dead At An Event In Them. Just My Opinion.

I use an old weber grill. Build a fire in it using whatever charcoal is cheap. I run a metal tube into the bottom of the grill through one of its vents, and attach my little air compressor to the metal tube. Once the fire is burning good I turn on the air compressor to hot up the fire, set the helm ...

accdntprone

Made it.

accdntprone

Ok, looks like Meinhard wins at $125. Pm me to arrange payment and shipping.

accdntprone

Ok, looks like Ballistar is the winner at $80. Pm me to arrange payment and shipping. Hope the hat serves you well.

accdntprone

Please do, as long as my day care (which has been a bit shakey with my dad ill) pans out I would love to attend.

accdntprone

That's head size. The outside circumference of the helm at browband is 28 1/4"

accdntprone

I have seen bluing kits for sale at local gun shops, but I have no idea how well it would hold up to being hit with a stick. Perhaps someone else here knows?

accdntprone

This One Also Ends Friday

accdntprone

What Day / Time?

accdntprone

Any pics from lost boys make it to the web yet?

accdntprone

Friday

accdntprone

I have reached out to the folks at falconcree. As I understand it there is not a regular local practice but Im hoping they can provide information on other local(ish) groups that do have regular practice. Have not received a reply yet,

accdntprone

bump. Remember, the money for this one goes to ShopMonkey..

accdntprone

accdntprone

ahh cool. That works.

accdntprone

shear mostly, now and then when the shear is too awkward I use a jig saw or the angle grinder.

accdntprone

I do sca heavy. While I would LIKE to do BOTN, I would create an entirely different kit for it should I ever get the chance to give it a try. I don't cut weight on helms, the mass of a helm is part of what protects your head. Im thinking arms and legs are places I could save some weight, and I want ...

accdntprone

Im reaching a point in my life where I really don't like carrying 80 pounds of metal around, but Im also not ready to just give up and do the bad garb over plastic pajama warrior thing. And to be honest the only things Im much good at making are helms and articulated joints. Persona is Scottish, mos...

accdntprone

Anyone know of one? I don't mind driving to Greenville, or even charlotte in a pinch, I just really need a regular practice.

accdntprone

Im thinking $225. (that's assuming you want the cross in steel like in the pic. I can do brass for the cross but my supplier is kinda hit or miss and if I have to order it it costs a ton)
