Is this a short term thing? Or will they be available still in like a month?

Check out all the roosters in the background... you guys sure this isn't a prank by Magnus?

Celtic Warrior is the guy's screen name. Not the style of gauntlet.

So far, its been hit or miss for me... sometimes the website shows up... sometimes it doesn't.

Broadway

Is that an odd angle, or is that snarl worked into the face?

Verra cool.

SCA oriented side question... do folks have trouble fighting with the tall kite shields while legged?

Broadway

Morgan,

It either says something about the quality of their work, or my own stupidity... but I'll probably attempt to place another order with them, for this next run of armour, before I hear back from them about my helm.

Broadway

I sent an email when I saw that they were taking new orders, but have not heard back. This has been about a week. Which is not outside of their time-frame for returning emails... My best advise is to be patient... they did sound sincere about following though with all current orders in a timely mann...

The chinstrap of my loaner helm "broke" at practice last year. It didn't so much "break" as, the chicago screw (that attached the chinstrap to the helm) un-screwed itself over time, and then fell out.

I use locktite on them now.

anybody? anybody?

Broadway

Thats a real nice impression Tim. Thanks for sharing.

Do the half gaunts get in the way when loading and shooting?

Broadway

How thick is a nickel?

Broadway

Depends on what you plan on doing with the shield (sca, larp, etc), what period you plan to portray (if that matters to you), and what time frame you plan to represent...

As long as he superglues nickles all over it.

Sure... make a big leather scabbard out of leather and sling that baby over your shoulder. If you want it to look really cool, superglue nickles all up and down the length of the scabbard. You could walk around town, and if people look at you wierd, you can say stuff like: "Careful, if you didn't no...

Cool.

We had a forum for event announcements/topics a long time ago... it tanked.

Maybe now, there are more people on the forums, so it might work... but it didn't last long when it was around the first time.

A while back, longer threads were problematic (they would f-up the forums). Once a thread got over 3 or 4 pages long, a thread was locked. I think that may have been fixed when we went to a php script to run the forums... but I am a bit out of the loop. The only editor that I know that constantly mo...

Broadway

That might have been why the dynamat worked for me... the Sallet I had, didn't have any grill bars... so it was probably more of a bell than a tuning fork type thing.

Broadway

I ordered a set of arms from him... communication sucked, his estimated completion times are a joke.

The item when it finally arrived was not what I ordered, and Beathan admitted it wasn't what I ordered, told me to keep it, and then refunded all of my money.

Broadway

Xtreme Dynamat stuck on the inside of the helm worked really well for my Sallet.

Broadway

I PM'd it a while back... but just in case the auction sticks...

Greetings... This past sunday, I finally got around to playing with a hand and a half sword with mandrake guards that I put together a while back.

I dislike the idea that having a legitimate criticism of this crown is tantamount to whineing. In fact, I find arguments like that to be insulting. Do you have a legitimate criticism? If it is up to the King to decide what he does or does not want to do, regardless of your opinion of what is right,...
