Post by Halvgrimr »

In the same vein as the AA's Armour of the Month, I give you a similar concept

Ooh I like that, something us non-armorers can (although I could probably make you a spiffy suit of wood :D).

Hrm... is the other end of the Viking world in Levedia (NW of the Black Sea) acceptable? I'd enter w/o prizes just in order to have SOMEBODY to "talk to," re-enactmentwise... and I've got a few things planned for this spring, as my teaching plans allow...

As luck would have it one of our members wife is a potter
http://www.badharepottery.com/

I imagine she will supply us with such things (but a few soapstone pieces would be nice too)

Is that site strictly for recreated items or would reasonable extrapolations also be eligible?

I have a drinking horn with a fixed antler stand that I made. I have no evidence of such a beast, but I wanted a horn I could set down without spilling.

You might submit the horn and mention the stand is an extrapolation

Halvgrim,
I tried to sign up to the new forum under my old name and it wouldn't let me. Have I offended Odin?
