Mad Matt, Paging Mad Matt
Trying to get ahold of Mad Matt from Mad Matt's armory. I'm trying to check on my order status. It's been about 23 weeks, I was quoted at 16 weeks. I understand there was some medical issues that slowed you down. Just checking to see if I'll get my armour any time soon.

Handgonne Help
I bought an RBG this weekend and after looking at the design I thought, "You know what, Aziz, you could do something like this" and now I'm spiraling down the rabbit hole. I want to go a bit earlier though, 15th century hand cannon style. Has anyone done this? Does anyone have some resources they co...

Interesting DIY Input Needed
Greetings, Archivers Has anyone taken a regular run of the mill object and turned it into anything armor or SCA related? For instance, a friend of mine took a shot put, welded it to a stake and used it as a planishing stake. Out here in my part of antir, retired bluejeans are safety wired to rapier ...

Re: WTB Bazubands
He asked me what material and finish. I told him I wasn't sure but I want it to be sca legal.
He asked me if I fought and I told him I was pretty new.
He told me "Fight more and figure out exactly what you want"

Howdy, folks.
How do you make that pointed tip riveted on to the top of a lot of middle eastern and Byzantine helms? Anyone know of any photo or video tutorials that could help me out?

WTB Bazubands
I'm upgrading my kit from "SCA Legal" to being a proper Saracen (and likely a secondary crusader kit but that's neither here nor there). As a result, I need bazubands. I would prefer metal but leather is cool too as long as it will pass a marshal's inspection. Let me know if you want to make a deal....

Re: Armourers near Tacoma area
I've made initial contact with the two baronies that I might be living in. There are a few crusaders there according to Facebook (even though it's a guy who knows a guy). Worst case scenario, I just begin to form my own chapter (advice from a friend who is a Secular Brother in their ranks). It's kin...

I may be mistaken then. I thought by the 3rd Crusade they just started covering their face. I may be mistaken. The period isn't as important to me specifically as the look.

How much should we be our brothers' keeper? If you're working with a friend who doesn't want to wear ears and eyes, do you refuse to work with him or let him learn the hard way? We're only working with a jigsaw and plastic but I feel my safety Nazi coming out of me.

Re: Equipping a Household - Shield Press
It should be noted patterning is a lot cheaper in the design phase. Planning on constructing one in poster board or poly fabric will save time and money when it comes to building with quality materials. Ducktape body doubles are useful. Fortunately for me, I work in a grocery store and have access ...
