Out of the classroom portion of my class so I have more time for trading and such again.

[Parvati Chandravanshi]

Parvati DOES pysanky (batiked Ukrainian Easter eggs from finch to ostrich,) silk painting/dyeing, henna, and jewelry.
Parvati WANTS tent/camping/Pennsic gear. She's also handy with a plane and a hand-drill, so she'll happily take bum gear. She spent her first War in a pup tent that wasn't hers and her arthritis did not approve. She'd love a 10X10 marquee, like those are often found laying around. . .

[Branoc]

[Rddeano]

Waldemar has: two hobby grade Rcs, one is a scaler; the other is a rock crawler/ rock bouncer. Between the two they value roughly 800 dollars.



Waldemar wants : a sugarloaf that's sca legal, with a 25"-25.5" head

[Zubeydah]

What I Do: Illumination (not calligraphy), amber jewelry (if you're in the Outlands, you've probably seen some of my work if you know Nathaniel McPhereson, my brother - he gives it out as gifts), beadwork - both heraldic (badges) or decorative (beaded veils, etc). Also relatively ok at heraldic images (ie, send me a description and I can put together a digital image).

Updating to add:
creative writing, wiki-page-building, photography-of-the-more-personal-sort, etc... While I am able to sew from a pattern, I wouldn't consider myself better than a advanced beginner seamstress. Heraldic banners (sewn, not painted).

What I Seek: Ottoman Turkish Stuff. I'm horribly out of period/out of genre/fakeyME in my garb, and would like to get a more authentic appearance. Be that accessories, footwear, feast gear, clothing, headgear, jewelry, woodworking for camp items, tent decor, etc.. any of that would be lovely.

Updating to add:
Honestly, I'll trade / barter for any item that would be of appropriate quality to include in a Royal gift basket. I enjoy putting together baskets for my Kingdom Royalty to give as gifts when they visit foreign lands (wars, etc). Especially items with a theme / color appropriate for the Outlands or Calontir. (Battlemoor / Lillies War)

[Adhemar de Rouen]

Hi there!

Looking for scraps of chainmail, preferably flat ring, stainless.

Looking to make a couple of "shin guards" to mimic the look of chain chausses. I need some pieces roughly 20" long, 4" wide at the bottom, and 17" on the top.

Simply going to lace them up the back. Rectangular pieces would be even better as I could trim them as needed to make them fit better.

Also looking for a chain hauberk that fits a 42" chest, 32" waist, knee length, and elbow length.

Thanks!

-Adhemar, Sovereign Heir Meridies.

What I can offer: Web development. (website help)

what I am looking for: garb. 15th century gear. SCA, ACL, and WMA weapons, kits (the kind I can make into things) are welcome as well.

[lgliebe726]

Laura can do: naalbinding. I make mittens and socks out of 100% naturally colored sheep's wool . Willing to trade one pair of either for $50 [or thereabouts] worth of stuff back. Online stores like jelldragon sell socks for $90 per pair and mittens for even more, so hopefully I'll find people to trade with ^_^

Laura wants:
Viking shield, viking armor, viking or norman helmet, gambeson, etc. for her boyfriend [so if it would fit a six foot tall dude it will work]
I'm a metallurgist with access to a machine shop so it's ok if they're not completely finished. I just can't weld.
I'm also willing to trade for anything cool that would go with a viking persona



You know you want warm naalbound things before going to cold early spring events!

[Brenainn Robertson]

Emerald Armories MAKES Stainless Steel Demi Gauntlets/Vambraces (more to come soon!)


Emerald Armories WANTS Elbows/Knees, Full Gauntlets, Bazubands (just about anything, Got a small shieldwall worth of guys to outfit!)

[Luger]

Lance can Provide :

* The legal services of Contract Drafting and Contract Review. I'm a business attorney in the Midwest, and while there are other areas I could provide services, I would be unwilling to do these outside of my state.
* Sewing basic garb, specifically tunics, pants, and hoods. I have a strong preference for working with linen or wool.


Lance Wants :

Note : I only do foam fighting sports such as Amtgard and Dagorhir, so SCA standards do not need to be met. I also do a lot of costuming, so anything should look good. My personas are viking and 13-14th century German/Eastern European. Prefer period looking items.

* A helmet! Either something in a passable viking style or an onion top bascinet with klapvisor, preferably comparable to what Mad Matt makes (http://www.madmattsarmory.com/images/ar ... inet_L.jpg).
* Arming cap and/or riveted aventail
* Gorget, preferably with leather layer in contact with skin
* Steel or splinted greaves
* Sabatons
* Breastplate. Hard to give much detail, I'd be open to a lot. Alternatively a nice coat of plates.

* Viking accessories, including feast gear, camping gear, and trim made from tablet weaving.
* Period tent, though it would need to be reasonably compact.

*Pirate coat or anything steampunk-esk in nature that isn't freaking googles.

[Pitbull Armory]

Hi, Id like to trade for a plaque belt or Plaques to make a belt.

[Paul the Small]

And to add to my interested items. I very much want to get a valve trombone.
http://www.amazon.com/Rossetti-Piston-V ... B003XS2FSG

I have seen them for as little as $150 but around $300 is the normal range for a solid student level one.

Hey, I used to play one in jazz ensemble...I also used to use it to make blaster sounds from SW. lol

I'll keep an eye out. My folks got me a euphonium thinking I'd play again one day...I'll see where they got it, you never know.

What kind of euphonium? I'm a euph player without a euph.
