You can, as a friend, suggest that he seek medical advice or consent. Speaking as a Kingdom Earl Marshal, you cannot, as a Marshal, require him to see a doctor. If you tell one person the HAVE TO then anyone else in the SCA lets someone else fight without a release, you are guilty and by extension ...

What are some good methods for making a reasonable looking, yet dirt-cheap crosshilt for a single-handed SCA sword (arming sword, whatever you want to call it). I've been thinking about making one from a pair of short rattan cutoffs, shaved to not-quite-half of their thickness, and cut a semi-circu...

I am 6'7 and about 360. I am a power lifter (weightlifter)...and I am an armourer who has made very large pieces for myself. However I want to make a point here. I dont not mean to be insultive, nor hijack the thread, however at 6'4 and 500 lbs that sounds like extreme obesity unless he is a power ...

I show my helmets to people, and they think they are really old.

The first, looks like a helm i made about 3 years ago. I sold it on ebay for a whopping 54 dollars.

I should have clarified: I'm looking for premade straps, in long lengths, like 6', at about .5"-.75" wide. If you really need them 6' in length, you are going to be paying a premium. There isn't all that much on a hide that gives you that length. I would probably try The Real Leather Peop...

Suprised one of the Darkmoon guys arent jumping on this.

m MAN that is a GOOD LOOKING MARSHAL! You look like you got excited because someone was talking to you. Then they just asked you to move. Where is your tabard and staff? I have it on good authority that he keeps his staff under his tabard. Like all modest lads. Then how does he do cupchecks on the ...

New kid in our group is 6'5, about 500 lbs and has a knee diameter of 26 inches. Also, one knee (the right, I believe) would have to accomodate the added diameter of a perscription knee brace. Anybody make anything that large? Baron Hamish Circumference... please tell me you meant circumference Oth...

Any ideas about how to build a sca shield that is designed to break after a certain amount of punishment to it? So many people bitch about indestructible shields and how it makes the game so unrealistic yadda yadda,etc,etc..... My idea would be cow rawhide(fairly thick stuff) a outer rim of ply woo...

Your Knight looks like a punk. It looks like he is using a small shield to try to impress people. Tell him to fight like he means it so people can really evaluate him and you. I can think of 10 fighters in the West who wold kick his ass for using such a small unrealistic shield. He isn't Hauoc. I w...

I hope then Sir Mord will not kick my behind too hard at Pennsic for my interpretation of an Oseberg-inspired decoration.... (wincing) RofN This is a time for Mord-Man. Seriously, Sir Mord is the most likely person around to be able to tell you whether or not the Norse had particular meanings assoc...

I dated an SCA lady for a few years who kept a sheep-castrator tool and the bands for it next to her bed, on the bedside table. It was more of a joke, but what got me was I was apparently the only one who recognized what it was. You must value your junk more than the other fellers, you do reasearch.

Does anyone know of a good way to replace the snap on an army chinstrap without just installing a new chinstrap? The current riveted location is now under leather which has been glued down, and I don't want to pull it up if at all possible. Not sure what you asking but they make snaps in chicago sc...

Hi all! I want to blend my love for Star Wars with my SCA persona. I am looking for someone to build me an SCA legal Empire Stormtrooper armor in white pickle barrel. Rattan blaster and light-saber optional but appreciated. I also need a coin-maker to produce period nickles for another armor projec...

Well, I was trying to get this done prior to Gulf War but just ran out of time and energy. So in an effort to get my kit better I finally made a scabard for my dagger, just need to finish the belt and it's done. I plan on making a matched one for my sword next. Thanks to Vitus and Cian and others f...

Actualy I am gonna talk mike into buying an aluminum one from jamie blackrose, and using that one for special occasions.

That is a tough one, have you asked more than one group what they think of your force level?
