Hey all!

I suck at most forms of armoring and leatherwork. I don't mind trying to improve my skills on stuff, but I'm going to get a Vitus treatment on my birch plywood shield blank, and I don't want to fugly it up with my own strap work.

I'm looking for straps and hardware done in the style of third quarter 14thC. I'm looking for two hand straps, forearm strap, guige and appriopriate buckles and strap ends. I would need them to be ready to attach to the shield...all holes punched etc. I'm looking for them to be dyed/painted white if possible, oxblood if easier.

Anyone able to fill this order? I'm trying to get my kit better, one piece at a time. Thanks!

Why didn't you just ask me to do it?

I guess because I'm still rattled by that crushing pollaxe blow you gave me a couple years ago. :oops:

So uh, how much more for it strapped?

I'm a doofus.
