Pretty Don't lose the lamellar - it looks grand Thanks But, if you are relacing anyhow - its upside down That all depends if your a beleiver in the "Great and Mysterious Footman/Horseman Debate" and you need at least one more row - maybe two Actually I like the sports bra look. While my m...

Lilies is still my favorite event While I respect your opinion I am of the exact opposite frame of mind. I HATE Lilies Now, before the lyncing begins......... I LOVE hanging out with my household and our friends AT LILIES I LOVE fighting with buds (both new and old) AT LILIES I LOVE the comraderie ...

Sadly most of my stuff is 3/4 or 1/2.
Thanks though

Now if ya just had two of em I bet I could work them into the new lamellar shoulder straps but alas its just the one:)

Halvgrimr

Really wish I had something to put that big viking strap end on but I dont have anything that wide (2 in)

Its nice work

Halvgrimr

No Stonekeep doesnt
I emailed them the day before yesterday and they dont have any in stock:(

And neither does Glendour (I talked with him and his brother before Lilies)
Whats worse is that he lost his mold to make more:(

If you find a source please let me know as I need some too:(

I was pretty insular and spent most of Lilies fishing and kayaking, so didn't see a lot of folks. Even as we were repairing tents from saturday morning I had 3 lines in water (as evidenced by the pic below). Can't catch 'em if you're not trying. Had a nice little fish fry on Saturday. And the firew...

I'd have sought you out to say hello, but I'm not sure I recognize you all kitted up. HEHE No problem FWIW, when I do Lilies I dont really get all kitted up Normally its standard Lilies gear ..... turnshoes, braise, and a loose fitting aOMGITSFRICKINHOTba Basically, Lilies is more about comfort and...

For my part, I had a great time in spite of the bad weather. Living just twenty minutes away from site helped me in that regard. In addition to spending more time with old friends, I got to meet several Archivers for the first time, including Adric and Brewer. Interestingly, I never took the field ...

Halvgrimr

Missed meeting you, Halvgrimr. It would have been interesting taking the Ghosts thread into face to face, where we could have been much less...inflammatory. Oh, I donno about that I would share a beer with almost anyone but as I stated in that particular thread (and several others) I dont much both...

lilies was great right up until that last storm front on sat morning - the one that took out the big tent - took mine out too! i was originally planning on leaving on sunday morning untill the wind packed the tent for me. i was holding the front door flaps getting them closed up when the gods reach...

Skip the dog bones EVEN THE BIG ONES end up being just a lot of short little pieces that are just a PITA to work with. Buy a sheet of rawhide from Tandy I got an entire side this week for less than $40 You can cut long strips and the thickness tends to be uniform. Dog bones are not worth the hassle ...

When I heard that Adric13 from Linengarb.com was coming to Lilies I was excited to hear that I would get to save on the shipping costs of the 2 new sets of garb I had ordered. Having meet Adric13 in person last week I became convinced that the savings were a minor issue in comparison to meeting the ...

Thanks Benedek I really wanted to sexy it up more with some of Raymonds castings (an occular casting and some pressblechs would have been nice additions) but I really wanted to get back on the field and didnt want to deal with the wait on Raymonds end. Well that and I was reaching my limit on fundag...

My first squires belt was one of these tied belt
I like them but like my bling better so abandonded them method:)

Halvgrimr

Well since it weights about 3 times what any of my other basket hilts weigh I felt it was an appropriate description. If its not what you want, ship it back and I will refund your money. Also, when Im not happy with something, I TELL someone. You havent mentioned any of this to me until now and youv...

While this may be the world oldest leather shoe it IS NOT the world oldest shoe.

Missouri has in its possession the oldest known shoe

The oldest known footwear in the world are 7,500-year-old sandals made from plant material found in a cave in the Arnold Research Cave in Missouri.
