HJALMR UPDATE (May 20)

Well its been another crappy week or two with nothing but bad luck. I'm still trying to get out old orders while trying to keep a roof over my head -don't know how long I can keep doing either. For now though:

HELMETS
1) Jamie Steeg: MS Spagnhelm shipped

2) Jim Bub: MS Bascinet totally screwed up. I spent 3 weeks trying to fix it, but this welder will not weld it correctly. At this point the helmet is worth around $4000 in labor alone and it now rests in the trash. I really cannot work on it anylonger as my other customers are awaiting there helmets. I am just going to have to give you a refund and my apologies...

3) Ben Stone: MS Closed Faced Spagn/Crusader Helm started today and and now 3/4 of the way finished.

4) James Betty/Miachael McCullough: Crusader helm should be fairly easy and hopefully I can start on it monday -maybe sooner.

5) Dennis Heisey: MS Kettlehelm is still a go, but after bascinet fiasco above -my hope is failing...

ARMOR (non-helmets)

1) Riley Owens: SS Sallet shipped
2) Timothy Miller: Fencing gear shipped
3) Stephen Sump: Rattan sword shipped
4) Hannibal Hulvey: Polar bear shield shipped
5) Kevin McLaughlin: 18g SS crusader cops and centerboss shipped
6) David Frister: Armoury book shipped

If I missed someone, please let me know -I'll be in the back of the shop hitting myself in the head with my remaining hammers...

O.o

Got the cops and shield boss last night. They have passed the all-important spousal approval test. Thanks for getting those out the door so fast.

Made-to-fit stainless cops arriving less than ten days after paying for them is pretty darn good.

Hjalmr I can't speak for your customers, but your stuff is so incredibly inexpensive that I'm sure they understand a delay here and there.

That's just my 2 cents.

I have a local guy looking to get a reasonably price Roman inspired helm for SCA.

He's not on the Archive, if you've got some contact information PM me with it and I will pass it on if you are interested.
