Thaddeus

Amen to that.

Never hammer with a hangover.

Jeff sorry, cant buy the nails. The starter motor on my truck burned out - transportation before hobby. My lot is back up for sale.

Thaddeus

Could you give some more info on the hrisoulas dagger?

Thaddeus

Tentmasters and Tentsmiths are two seperate companies.

Trying to pummel Jurgen.

And discovering that my poleaxe although light and quick hits like a rather large cushy pillow. That'll teach me to bring an untried butter knife to a gun fight.

Thaddeus

Hmm I pointedly avoid the off topic boards. Had no idea. Bob think on it a while - If you still want to sell stuff after a week or two or a month let me know I will still be interested.

Thaddeus

I'll go for the suite of rattan swords.

Thaddeus

Duh! Dont know why, but a canvas belt had never occurred to me. Thanks Julianna you're a genious! (Said with the same inflection Graywolf uses for 'your excellency')

Thaddeus

I can also attest second hand to steve's service. Guillaume de Cambrei's (Evil_Merlin) shirt was pretty much a mass of corrosion and when he got it back it was like brandy new less the mass that had rusted of course. He was ecstatic, still not sure why he gave up on the whole thing after working so ...

The standard armour in western europe in the 12th century was a knee length maille hauberk with long sleeves often ending in a mitten or 'muffler'. Maille chausses also start to be worn during this time frame. They are seen both as the lace up the back varient and the full leg type. Helmets are gene...

Thaddeus

Bascot stop encouraging him!

You are doing damage that will Adam years to iron out.

D. I'd like to know how you propose to achieve the saintly halo.

Thaddeus

Hal it looks like a good first run. Most of the really interesting versions of that style I have seen have more going on arund the crown. The crown usually looks rivetted on or highly decorated. I am thinking of the illustration by Mathew of Paris shown in AAoMK (13th century chapter) also the knigh...

Thaddeus

Well Steves comment just sold me.

Put me in line after JP.

Thaddeus

What!?

Thaddeus

One of the things I really enjoy about buying stuff from Karl is the enclosed freebees. Last time it was a TI - the one with Iron Lance on the cover.

Thaddeus

Bill, I'm not saying anything more than keep an eye on our featured product for January 1, 2005. New year, new products.... Gwen Tease Guy - you have no idea: For instance, there is the XXXXXXXXXX, and the XXXXXXX, as well as the XX century XXXXXXXX and the XX century XXX XXXXXXX - all of which I m...

Thaddeus

Remembr, skin wins!

Thaddeus

Yeah, I am working on a copy of it with some help from Erik. My main trouble is lack of access to a welder. So right now it is just a bunch of pieces sitting in a basket waiting for me to get creative. It will be the topper on my all mail kit. need to work on chausses but thats another story all tog...

Thaddeus

get some forms from Captain Jamie. He had some lugs for a spear that would work reasonably well in the application you are looking for. Or ask him to custom cut you something.

Thaddeus

The information I have - which you are welcome to - and as I recall was provided by Maria? at a pennsic class, says that the dalmatica was often woven of a piece. So the loom had to be wide enough to encompass the outspread arms. I also seem to recall something about reusing pieces. Anyway its kind ...

Thaddeus

Hal here is another interpretation.

This was made by Zweihammer.

Thaddeus

Congrats Cet and family!

Thaddeus

I would like one.

Thaddeus

Karl I'll take the sword hilt and pommel.

Thaddeus

Joram, those are very pretty. Would you be willing to share the pattern with us?

Thaddeus

Thaddeus

Hmm I need one of those actually.

$300 ?

Thaddeus

Does anybody here play with that group out of Quebec? WHat rules fo they use. From what I have seen on their site their collective standards are quite high. Which is just marvelous. It seems to me that if the entry level for combat is effectively the unarmoured peasant, then you will get fewer peopl...

Thaddeus

When I got my hinges from Brain at Chivalry Bookshelf one of them was way funky, I eamiled to complain that I didnt think selling a piece in such bad shape was cool. He said he would be happy to refund my money or replace it, but they were now out of stock it would 'a while' until they were back in ...

Thaddeus

Shake it hard man.

Thaddeus

Thaddeus

That would be the bad smell part.

Given teh temperature locally if it is outside it might be ok til spring.
