I know for a fact that there are people I would refuse to fight. These being people I see as having no honor. Killing them would be more like killing bugs than men. I'm a warrior not the Orkin man.

There's a line from shakespeare here that is SO fitting, but the wording of it escapes me at the moment. Oh well

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Yes logan. Many people do cheat. Sometimes it's inadvertant, a lot of times it isnt. You cant fight for 20+ years in this game and not get at least an idea of when someone is blowing off shots. Not if you have more than a slight intelligence anyway. Ignorance is a lack of knowledge, right? Nissan ha...

DELETEMYACCOUNT

I didnt find Nissans comment ignorant at all. I've seen it happen. Video in fact.

I think consistency says an awful lot about someone in a case like this. Personally I've found that if someone takes shots in practise from me but ignores those same shots in a tournament I'd think they were cheating to win. But if it takes a certain shot all the time to kill them I'll be a lot more...

I love my Ger. Just love it.

How long should i bake the leather, now i know that the bigger the longer but how to you know its done?" Wet leather is dark. Dry leather is light. As you bake check it every so often. Feel it with your fingers and guage the moisture. Try a few test pieces first so you dont f up something important....

I wonder how this would work for cutting sole bend.

Well in my fantasy Tuchuk party the beer flows like water and your horn never goes dry, the girls dance around the fire naked and in the bunny fur thingys and all look like pam anderson varaints. I'm sure reality is NOTHING like that but i can pretend Lets see. Beer, yup. Usually penn pilsner or so...

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Ok, just exactly what is your concept of a Tuchuk party?
This oughta be good

"Animal: No chance Lance! "

Oh well. Worth a shot

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Oh no, I know that pesky Skutai and he was indeed talking shit! And as punishment he should have to give me his helmet.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Take your time and research. First find out what tools you're gonna need and where to get or make them. Then look at the piece you're trying to create. I've found that people look at things but dont really SEE them. Understand the curves by holding a gauntlet and understanding where it goes and why ...

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Yah, if you run across that hit it until it dies. But not at the cost of your own honor.

I am making a Char-aina breastplate. I've looked on the web but I suck so I found next to nothing about it. I found some great shots of the breastplate I wanna base mine off of so I'm good there. My question is what is the background behind it? What was the rest of the kit? What were the clothes tha...

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Stay safe, watch your ass.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Um, you sounded like a prick. Then you got called a prick. if the prick fits...
Just sayin.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Theres a big difference between someone saying 'look what I made for a wedding' and 'look at this perfectly authentic 15th century armor/garb whatever'
And we all know that all 15th century heavy metal bands of the period wore all black.

Knowing CPR is a real good thing. I used it years ago and revived a heart attack victim and kept him alive until the ambulance got there. I'm also trained in chikld and infant CPR although my certs have lapsed. I was current up till a year ago or so and am looking now for a place to get updated here...

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Step in and cut him down.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Hit him. What else?

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Do you suppose I could see the spun top helm please? fuct_up_name@yahoo.com is me.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Yup. I love mine. I cant say enough good things about House of the Wolf as a business and Dan as a person. Seriously. Money well spent.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

If you soak the leather real good then wrap the braid real tight you wont get near as much bulk. Even a spiral wrap would work for this sword. Not that it isnt cool as is, but you're right. THe leather would look better than tape.

Non-Sca, Non-Anything really kit. The picture is pretty dark but then again so is the outfit, you can't even see the hood.

Deal me a slice Riff!

DELETEMYACCOUNT

.You should spin me a nice 30 inch aluminum round shield. Screw helmets. Spun rounds are the way to go.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

As long as the SCA is ruled by fighters it will be ruled by fighting. Until those that cant fight band together and pool enough clout to edge the fighters out of supremacy.
Sad state. GO beat them up.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

You mean people think they're better than you and more important just because they have a horse? No way!

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Ya know, if you took 4 strips of leather and did a round braid around that handle it would look great.

DELETEMYACCOUNT

When? Where? Whassup?

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Who made your helmet Skutai? It's sweet!

DELETEMYACCOUNT

You could take a picture of the helmet and post it here though. It truly is badass. It's as nice as mine and mines the bombdiggity!

DELETEMYACCOUNT

Adam we need mongol helmets! Real cool ones, not the dorky ones I found on the web. When you start making helmets again let us know, we're gonna have some guys needing buckets!

DELETEMYACCOUNT

I remember bulldozing some chick in a town battle a few years back. I knew it was a chick becayuse when I stepped on her chest it was squishy

DELETEMYACCOUNT

THis is the first one I'll have missed. I'm bumming.

Help with garb/armor please?
