The Rifts 1st Edition, is it the hard cover?

Lorik Thorsson

I was a framer for just over 8 years, i started out as an Estwing FANATIC swinging around my 28oz all steel framing hammer like Thor incarnate. Needless to say this only lasted about 2 years before my elbow started popping and getting stiff. When my wooden handles would start to wear out i would pul...

Cleaned out the workshop and looking to get rid of a few things i really dont need, tuition is due soon and i need the extra cash. All items are going to the first reasonable offer. * ~9 SQFT 8-10oz veg tan leather Roll measures 3'9" x 3'8" to the shortest points. Great for lamellar kits or straps. ...

Thing is, Lorik, that what you are ranting about and being pretty nasty to Russ over, DID NOT HAPPEN. IN fact, Sean, Russ, Joaquin and D. Sebastian were pretty civil and made good use of reason based on available evidence in their arguments. I've re-read the thread twice, just to make sure. For som...

Lorik: You might want to actually read the thread: your entire rant is unjust. Nobody has taken the position you describe. As the Germans say, "those who can read, have an advantage!" Actually my statement was completely justified, If you look through the various posts on this thread you will see t...

sexy..

Lorik Thorsson

SirMendors post covers the exact reason i laugh everytime i see or hear this type of debate.. The people who are believers of leather being used as armor normally come off a tad rude, but then instead of just ignoring it or saying its PLAUSIBLE you all jump into bed and start trying to argue that th...

Im looking for someone who does a good bit of metal armouring in the jax, fl area.. I have been wanting to move on from leather into metal for quite a long time and figured if i could find someone in my area maybe i could lend them my talents in exchange for some teachings? Im a Master Welder and ca...

Lorik Thorsson

id lightly sand them then try to buff it out, i dont see any real need for reapplying the acrylic unless you grind all the way through it..

a light sanding and a little elbow work should bring out the shine.

Lorik Thorsson

Left is Medium Brown STAIN, Right is Black Dye (black may be hard to see due to the lighting and flash) Oh, the ...

The tooling on your work is sick.. i looked through your portfolio and was blown away. Looking for an apprentice?

Lorik Thorsson

I bought it awhile back for use with various tasks and never really got around to doing much with it. I have used it once to grind an edge onto a 1/4" piece of flat bar, otherwise its gotten no use. Im in my last semester at school and im running short on cash so im looking to sell a few things.. He...

i used pauldrons on my first set and had a similar problem, to get sufficient shoulder coverage i had to bring the straps closer to my neck. the way i resolved this problem was by doing away with the pauldrons and made shoulders out of lamellar, the kit turned out looking alot better that way too.

Lorik Thorsson

ya i couldnt see paying $235 for something like this.. ive got a customized set of wise aviation snips that cuts 5-6 rings at a time with no distortion and leaves a near perfectly butted ring without the typical V shaped cut... Its a nice machine, could be very useful to anyone who sells massive amo...

I am about to order some stuff, the sizes are kind of limited but their prices are almost unbeatable.

Lorik Thorsson

Im not sure about the sizing of the knee cops but id say its probably small. im an average size guy, 5'11 165lbs knees are like 4.5" wide, about the same height.

Lorik Thorsson

If anyone has any new or slightly used articulated knees they will sell for a decent price please let me know.

Looking for someone who has the tools to make some custom punches for lamellar plates. Im looking for 2 different sizes that are capable of punching through 8-10oz leather. It only needs to punch out the shape, not the holes. I made one awhile back out of a chunk of SS, but with my school hours i do...

Lorik Thorsson

ya i grabbed a 1/2" thick chunk of stainless from school and got out the dremel tool and made a punch i could use to cut the plates, it works pretty well. The leather i have laying around here is 7-9oz veg tan, but all ive ever really made is lamellar and my own gauntlets. i bought the leather last ...
