My shields- a report.

Post by Vitus von Atzinger »

The core wooden shield has been improved. Now using marine grade birch exclusively. The better the core, the better the product.

2 ¼" peices laminated? Or have you been able to find 1/8" marine ply?

What kind of delivery time are folks looking at if they placed an order? What is your current backlog or delivery estimate?

It depends upon what type of shield you want. Jehan's large order is being made two shields at a time.
