WTB - Deep / large shield bosses

Looking to see if anyone makes "deep" shield bosses. With the smaller ones I've seen, my hand hits the inside of it when I get the shield handle set.

Maybe 6" across (at the inside opening, where your hand fits) by about 4 - 6" deep?

Would prefer stainless or aluminium.

No timetable to purchase, just fishing for info at the moment.

Thanks!

The large windrose bosses are plenty deep. I have one on my shield and I could easily put a full gauntlet in there and have room. I actually think it is too big for me. :)

Dilan, I have a set of Bokalo's manatee gauntlets and they are a bit on the big side. :)

My Asgard plastic boss is 6" wide, and my gauntlet barely fits in it. But it is usuable if I wanted to go to single sword with a gauntlet if i wanted to.

I also have a windrose shield with one of his bosses. It is 6 1/2" wide and my gauntlet fits perfectly in it, with room to spare.

So i am thinking anything you make, will be smaller than my gauntlets, so should fit fine in one of Windroses.
