Re: Heh

I should point out that Brand, Dirk and Sean are all located in the barony of Calafia (San Diego). Our polis is very powerful... You forgot me , San Diego is the first area I've lived where you can walk into a bank, ask for a small business loan to expand your armoury and not be laughed at. Eric

Chris,

Based on the most prevalent armour examples you have displayed over the years, I would do a class on how to make CORRECT looking splinted armour using the materials you mentioned. I think that would have a big immediate impact.

If I may imart some advise, I am not sure what level of commercial armouring activity you plan to partake of there, but I have always done my best work under 2 conditions that you can employ with this space. Thay are: Plenty of natural light sources and a more period looking interior.

Hi, Yes, it is still on, however, I cancelleds 1 of the 2 motel rooms today, but can still sleep 4 for Saturday night. It is located along CA highway 78/79 halfway between the towns of Julian and Santa Ysabel. From San Diego, take your best route to Ramona, continue about 18 miles east toward Julian...
