Went to Menards (like Home Depot) and picked up a couple of their wooden fence tops (I got the round ones, but an thinking of changing to the Acorn shaped ones) - took out the screw, drilled it a bit deeper, painted them gold and they work like a charm.

http://www.sthubertsrangers.org/about_us.htm [img]http://www.sthubertsrangers.org/Montage3.jpg[/img] I am glad to know that I am not the only one that hunts deer with a longbow and in period clothing (which, IMHO, works better than any of the "realtree" items I have worn).

SCA Balsa Jousting Armour - Recommendation

I want to toss in a plug for a very experienced armourer/jouster/SCA member - John "Shark" Perry. John has been making and wearing armour for jousting since before a lot of you were around. His armour is rock solid, his prices are great, and his turn-around times are fantastic. He has made...

I would like to get this going in the Middle. But I am a stickler for accuracy and scope of the tourney, and to be blunt, one of the things that turned me off about the SCA jousting was the allowing of items and anachronisms that drew away from the total scope of the tilt. With styrofoam, sure plas...

Dave, Don't toss out the "Home Depot" lances just yet, especially if you are looking at costs. Using an 8' straight dowel, with a socket and a 3' length of balsa is a very good lance. It is great for not only keeping costs for tourneys and training and is really good for developing lance c...

Hi All,

I took pics, but the 'puter is being a butthead and won't let me upload. I will get a cd burned tomorrow at lunch and will upload from work. Sorry about the delay.

As for the width of the sabatons, I also wear a wide shoe and they fit well, but I will get a measurement for you.
