The Armour Archive

How about if you take out the shaping of the lames which is easy to do and also the driling of holes in the metal and holes in the straps. Also the assembly of the buckles. Basically cutting only?

you ARE a French at heart.

Alienor, thanks for the links.

My main purpose is to build a reference for us "Frenchies", that have mostly learned about armour and the building of it in English, to be able to communicate better in French.

Thanks again and I'll be sure to send you all the info that I come across.

T-Bob, I thought that it was because the darker dye, black at least, was more "corrosive" and damaged the cloth with time. Thus only the wealthier would use it.

Just use the Postal Code they use as an example below the box. That will get you in the site. After that just search for the snips.

Thanks for including me Stephen but I am far from a handsome devil. In fact, I dont think any marks will actually make a difference.

And I guess you must be sending Sandra secret thoughts cause she already smacks me around quite a bit.

Can't wait to see your full kit.

Nice. Just one question. From the side pic, it doesnt look like ther is much space for your nose. If I remember correctly you did not look like a pug las time I saw you.

And that's US. Much more in canadian pesos.

PS: You might want to talk to Eff about that avatar of yours if I may suggest. Not that it is not welll designed but....

Patern making is important but not as important as hammer skill. Spend the time working on the later instead of a cad program. A pen and paper is more than sufficient for the task. It is only a guess but I doubt that Mac uses Autocad.

just my 2 pennies

I can understand your excitment. I have been looking at this one for a while now and it looks like a couple more weeks is all I have left to wait:

Of course it is not as nice as yours but will still run me about $1200 with the bottle and taxes.

No need to apollogize, I was not offended.

Why stop at the SCA Julian, I vote to make it a universal custom.

I was thinking exactly the same thing as Matt and I am sadly also bypassing these post. Sorry.

I bought mines here:

Good price and no problem with quality.

Durame, Thanks for the info. I think I still want to build mine. I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t want to spend that much money on something that I know I will want to replace pretty soon. Not that it looks like a bad sander but Ã‚Â¼ HP is not much.

Still, thanks again for letting us know how about it.

Gotta love the AA. Where else would you get so many replies for posting pics of NOTHING!

Pad

Padrig

How did you make it invisible like that?

Julian, feel free to email Churchill at Brettunsvillage. You can't find a nicer guy and he will gladly help you find what you need if he has it.

Russ, I am mainly looking for help on the armour terms. Many have more than one translation and I was looking for what people here who, for example, have a French personna use if any.

Pad

Padrig

Thanks Ancelin Your help is greatly appreciated. It is nice to find so much help on the Net about armouring but the downside is that since it is mainly in English, I am loosing my French.

Pad

Padrig

Well I speak French but I am looking for your help anyway, I am sure some of you actually know more than me, for some terms anyway. I've made a list of terms to be translated in French. m Any help, additions or errors you see, please feel free to point out. Thanks for looking. Pad PS: I know it has ...

Hal, you are taking the "Work Hardening" thing to an extreme.

I am kidding of course. It is taking shape nicely. Don't give up.

Pad

Padrig

Still nothing.

Do you mean only links on banner construction? If you mean links in general, you can find a couple on my site.

I was sure it was a cooking website.

Padrig

Thanks for the link. At that price I might pick one up just for fun.

Is it just me? I only get:

"Ce document n'est pas accessible sur Gallica pour des raisons techniques ou juridiques. "

Pad

Yes, it is a hose clamp type of band, to keep the stump from splitting. Which it doesnt do very well.

I much prefer the laminated bench as a base.
