Caius,

I will run over to the PO at lunch and find out.

I only have the arms and a few sticks of rattan left to sale. It is getting close to the holidays, maybe there is a fighter who would like a nice set of arms or some new rattan. All of the untaped rattan has never been used before it is brand new, the piece that is taped has been used. Come on lets ...

Most everything has sold, with only the Ice Falcon Arms and a couple of sticks of rattan left. Come on people this is all I have left of my heavy fighting stuff, help me clear out room in my house. Make me an offer.

Just a few more things left. If you see something you like make me an offer.

If you see something that you are interested in make me an offer.

Things are moving, but not as fast as I would like. If you see something you like, make me an offer. The worst that could happen is I say yes and you have a new piece of armor or rattan.

Caius that is fine.

I sent you a PM with the shipping rates. Let me know if you are still interested.

Winterborne,

I have sent a PM to you.

I do not have the stuff with me here at work, but I will weigh them when I get home and let you know this eveing.

I am getting out of the SCA Heavy combat and I would like to sale my equipment, as it is not doing me any use at the moment. I had fought in the SCA for 4 years and this is the stuff that I have left to sale. On the shipping I will use the lowest cost method be it flat rate or priority mail for ship...

I just heard from our MOL that we had 169 heavy fighters, 31 fencers and there were 14 Authorizations completed at Blackstone Raid. I wanted to thank all of the heavy fighters for coming out and running through the scenarios. I hope that everyone had fun with them. Also, there were some weapons, a s...

I have some announcements concerning the fighting at Blackstone Raid. This year we will have Youth Combat for our young fighters. On Friday evening from 6-8 PM there will be Weapons Making and Pick-ups. There will be Shaved Rattan available for purchase. The location will be announced on site. On Sa...

Here is some information that might help you decide to come if you are still on the fence. If you pre-register the cost is $18, but if you wait and pay when you arrive on site the cost is $20. Many people have mentioned the cabins, it cost $15 for a bed for the entire event of if you prefer camping ...

This event is not a war, but is a pretty large melee event. The Mid-realm is invading the southern lands of AEthelmearc. The armies of AEthelmearc and it's allies skirmish against the army of the Mid-realm and it's allies. In the past there has been around 250-300 fighters on the field. The attendan...

Friends and allies of AEthelmearc heed our call!!! The Dragon of the Kingdom of the Midrealm stirs from winter slumber. The forges are cold and soon the Barony of Blackstone Mountain in the Kingdom of AEthelmearc will be raided for its coveted black stones. The time is growing nigh to be counted amo...

As part of mine and my wife's christmas present to each other, we got some new shoes for our SCA personas. We ended up getting some shoes from Boots by Bohemond. We got the off the peg shoes, the Baltic II boot and the Jorvik shoe. We like the shoes but was thinking about trying to dye them so they ...

Our Barony has some torches that we have used for our torchlight tournaments. The torches are made from 1/2" copper pipe with couplings, so that they can be broken down for transport. We use a propane tank to provide the fuel for the touches, each torch has a regualator like the ones on gas gri...

I was looking for a marshal's gauge, any suggestions?

Thanks

So are you saying that the bottom hole should still be at 3/8" from the bottom to the center and there should be 1 1/8", instead of the 5/8" that I have shown? Or are you saying add the extra 1/2" to the bottom of the plate and the distance to the center of the bottom hole would ...

I am wanting to change my SCA armor, and have decided to go with lamellar. I am going to make my plates out of plastic, and will hide it under my fighting tunic. I know I could do it out of metal, but I can make the plastic plates faster and cheaper. I have found a source for 1/8" - 4'x8' Polyp...

I am currently looking for a pattern to make a pair of the pants that James B. has posted pictures. I have run across the pattern that Greenshield has posted also, except I found it in the Swedish version. I am wanting to draft up a pattern so I can give it to my wife. Does anyone have one with eith...

We usually have a torch light tournament on Thursday night, on Friday we have a bear pit followed by Jugging. These type of things usually take care of themselves as far as what is supposed to go on. The larger battles with the large amount of fighters is where things need a little bit more scenario...

Thanks for the advice so far, I will keep it in mind as I am working on scenarios.

Yes this is for Blackstone Raids (www.blackstoneraid.org), which by the way will be April 21-24 (Easter Weekend).

I was wondering the different types of battles that you have fought in at SCA events? Most of the events I have been to have had had melee's, bridge battles, and some sort of gate/pass battle. Some of the battles have had some objective, such as hold the gate as long as possible, or capture a flag g...

Me and my lady are planning on going agian this year. Last year there was a field of 60+ fighters. I think there were about 4 or 5 merchants there last year. This was the first event I have attended that had equestrian as well.

I am contemplating making some chainmail. I would like to do some riveted mail, but was thinking about using punched flat rings along with the riveted rings since it should work for period chainmail (late 12th Century). I was wondering what is the best source for the flat rings. I didn't know if was...

I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to help me out. I am thinking of making a kit up for a mid to late 12th century german who would have been in the crusades. I wasn't looking to be a templar. I know that the early part of the 12th century would have been mostly nasal helms. I was wonde...

I really appreciate everyones response. I am sure that there are others that this will help as well. Thanks.

Thank you for all of your suggestions so far, I am still open for more if anyone else would like to help. I have only been fighting for just over a year. The use of woodens shield a requirement of persona, I wanted to be able to change sizes and shapes of sheilds until I was able to find one that wo...

I was wondering if you kind people would offer me some suggestion on how to make my sheild last a little bit longer. I fight heavy in the SCA, and use a wooden heater that I make myself. I use 3 layers of 1/4" plywood, that I curve and glue together. My current method to get the curve in the sh...
