Good news to hear. I met HrH briefly at Pennsic and I was very impressed with his attitude and demure.

If I remember correctly, from brais and undershirt to full kit took around 7 min < full out rush for opening court at Pennsic >.

I will say this in all honesty Cat, Mattmaus is sarcastic. But the comment he made about your shield was without sarcasm.

Seems to be.. shrug, whoda thunk it

I'll throw my hat in also. I'm sure I can find a good home locally for it. Youth combat is becoming quite popular here.

I also use fibertape rope on the top flange and bottom flange of my cup hilts. I've had baskets break before the tape rope gave way.
In the past have used U-bolts and Hose clamps. I'm with fiber rope all the way now.

Cat, As usual, your work is beautiful. I do something similar, but in a different way than you. I shape very similar sheild handles, but aside from the grip, I do most of the shaping while it's glued and riveted to the sheild. Instead of a spokeshave or draw knife, I use a block plane. This allows ...

I have the bell wedge and it is very nice, then the added bonus of being less then half the price of the other big tent merchents. I camp out at Lillies war for 10 days every year and I have to be picky about tents, gale force winds, down pours, tornados and such, and these do well. The bell wedge ...

Mattius is part of my household. If anyone does need some communication with him, I am willing to get ahold of him and do a little prodding I'm sure he will be reading this also He does do very nice work though. I have seen many of his pieces up close and they are all very well done. Cheers Sixtus
