Are you still going to take commissions for your all leather work? I was thinking about sometime in the not to distant future about a set of you shovel greaves.

I am really diggin the possibilities of this stuff as travel armour, since we have a serious travel requirement here in Drachenwald. I also am wondering about the non covered stuff for hidden armour and really am waiting to see the quisses and knees combination for hidden armour. But I gotta say it....

I would have to say I liked your old leather ones better. I can't imagine that they are any heavier than the plastic and just look so much better.

Crown Tourney Winners

My daughter asked me this question over the weekend and I just didn't really have an answer for her. Her question: "Dad, how often does crown get won by a first time contender?" My answer was I didn't really know but I assumed not often. So I ask you the members who have been in the SCA a ...

Ingvarr, it just all melted away as I put on my armour. Everytime I stepped into the list it became just me and my opponent. I was very focused. The only time I lost my focus was when I slipped and fell on the wet ground. Anyway for anyone interested here is a link to some video of the tournement. F...

It seems to me that the retirement is now in your past. Nothing much to do about it now. I don't know what your new job is, but I assume you're qualified to do the work. If that's the case, show up to work and do what needs to be done. The only concern there is that if you win crown, will you be ab...
