Re: WTB non spun shieldboss
Boy that sure is a nice shield boss. 
whoever made that must be a genius. They're $35 direct from me but I'm only taking orders with a total value over $500.
I make those bosses for him. Great guy to deal with though so it's a safe place to order from.
If you wanted 25 or more you'd get my wholesale price of $26.50 on these including shipping.

Re: WTB non spun shieldboss
I think otto makes hand hammered ones ? This one looks non-spun, at 30 usd to boot.

Never Trust a Fart.
Re: WTB non spun shieldboss
Mine are $30. They are 2" - 2 1/2" deep and I make them in 2 sizes: 8" across and 9" across (outside measurements). Mine are made out of 14g.

Yeah, the trouble is, I am a picky bitch.
Most SCA shield bosses (especially the spun ones) are to big and way to deep IMO.
This is mostly to accommodate a SCA gauntlet (which I dont wear when I fight with a centergrip.)
This throws the look off for me (this is where the picky bitch thing comes in) so I am booking for something with a more appealing (for my eye) look.

They have six 1/4" holes in them when I finish hammering them out, but I can fill them in if you like (like in the pics).
