Helm by Accedentprone: $60 or best offer.
Picture to follow later in the week.

Aaron, what kind of helm are we talking about? I have a college student looking for a bargain, if it fits his melon, I'm sure he'll go for.

It's a basic "orc" helm...

Two helm halves spangled and welded together with a rear skirting and a face-plate (eye holes only).

It is beautiful in it's own way.

I'll post a picture this weekend, I hope.

Oh, free shipping within the New Jersey, Philadelphia area. I'll drive it out to you so I know it has a good home. Expect me to be sentimental about it....

Apologies, I thought it was an SCA Heavy helm.

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Mon Jun 09, 2003 12:32 pm

It is an SCA heavy helm, it's just a little crude (I did a lot of the work, and gave accedentprone only limited tools and materials).

It's all mild steel.
12 gauge (dished) tops from Ron Simmons, 14 guage sides (back and face), and a 14 gauge "strip" of mild steel over the top.

It's strapped, but not padded.

I'll e-mail pictures if you wish later this week.

Oh, okay then. Sure, shoot me a picture when you can and then I'll see if my friend'll go for it.
Know the circumference?

Metal working machine? Can you give a little more detail on that? ;0)

If those other two don't get the helm, I'm interested.

William Frisbee · Post by **William Frisbee** » Mon Jun 09, 2003 5:14 pm

I'd be interested in the railroad tie anvil.

How much do you think shipping would be to Nashua, NH?

Gypsy · Post by **Gypsy** » Mon Jun 09, 2003 10:40 pm

It's in the shed among everything else...

Check for the helm in the "Helm by Accentprone" file. My wife is wearing it. No measurements yet...

bump?

Aaron, tried your cell said it was out of service, email me with what you have left and a working ph # if possible.

Raibeart Lok De la Haye · Thu Jun 12, 2003 4:01 am

That is what we used to call a "re-bar" cutter. I'm sure it would cut 16-14 ga okay.

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Thu Jun 12, 2003 7:42 am

It's 908-902-3461. If that doesn't work, my wife's cell is 908-902-3463.

I'll have pictures this weekend I hope.

has anyone got the dishing stump yet

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Fri Jun 13, 2003 7:10 am

The metalworking machine and anvil were sold yesterday evening.

The dishing stump is still up for grabs, but it's a "come-an-get-it" thing. The cost for shipping a stump would far outweight the value of it.

Thank you for all the attention,

Aaron

Aw damn... Looks like I need to go hunting for railroad pieces next weekend.

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Fri Jun 13, 2003 11:39 am

Evil Merlin,

My apologies. Critter just showed up, had money in hand, and I helped him load it into his vehicle.

This wasn't as much a "sale to get money" as a "I need this sh_t gone SOON because I'm moving, and would anyone like to have it instead of tossing it in the dumpster...and can I get a tip for putting it in your car?

"

This was me getting out of armouring at or near the house. I don't have the time, and my son, daughter and wife deserve all my time.

Aaron,

I just caight this post and relized it was you- do you still wnat that skull?

William Frisbee · Post by **William Frisbee** » Fri Jun 13, 2003 12:29 pm

Aaron, no problem, I fully understand.

Aaron · Post by **Aaron** » Fri Jun 13, 2003 5:03 pm

I'm getting out of armouring at home...

I'll still visit ANYONES armoury, drool over your stainless equipment (the mild would rust...I'll drool at range), feel the urge to peen a rivet...etc...

I'll still buy armour and have that tonlet suit made for me.

It's just taking up too much time into my busy schedule of work, wife, kids, dog, eating, sleeping, running 6 miles every morning, 45 minutes of constant weight lifting (no talking, no stopping) after the run, working out with the unit, etc...

I'll be happy when I can fight in a suit I like (and will protect me).
