It's probably been mentioned already, but I noticed on the www.pennsicwar.org class schedule that Lord Stephen is giving a class on Riveted Mail on Wednesday, August 15. I don't know if I'll start making a riveted hauberk, but I'll try and make the class.
yeah, I was there last Pennsic.. it was great to see his riveting and punching tools in person.
but I still haven't gotten around trying riveted.
wish I could go again, but found out a couple days ago that I wont be making it to pennsic this year.. hmmm.. might not make it back there for many years
