Re: New Hunting quiver
Impressive. It's great both as a functional quiver and as a piece of art.

Re: Lynn Thompson's Special Projects: Sword Seconds
Thanks for the clarification! I'd actually want a Class C, provided it did not have pitting in the blade. Anything else I can deal with, but that would be a problem. Really I only want the blade - I would be completely rehilting it anyway. I have a question about that. I've got an OK blade I'd like...

Re: Salt Pork - Tolkien's Gift to Middle Earth Reenactment
Thanks for the tips on what to get and how to cook it.
Any chance of a Summer Indymoot? If not, my halfling has been asking about playing fetch with Shadow and fishing for months, so I'm hoping we can make it some time in the next few weeks.

Re: leather cook pot
I read somewhere that it's possible to cook in a leather pot. I was wondering if it's possible? Cooking in leather pots figured frequently in Jean Auel's "Clan of the Cave Bear" books, and I remember reading an interview with her in which she said that a fan tried it out- not dropping hot...

Re: long sword exercises
I'd like to upload some photos of my pell, but don't seem to have the slightest idea how to do so.
I clicked the 'Img' link above, and tried to copy and paste inbetween the [img] boxes to no avail.
Can someone help?
Thanks.

Re: long sword exercises
I'm new here and I was wonder if anyone had any good sword exercises you can do alone? Not sure about exercises per se, but I built a pell. Basically, a "T" shaped dummy out of railroad ties. Mounted it to an "X" shaped base, then covered it with old carpet and mounted a helm ma...

Re: Aragorn's name
The man had more names, than hats. As stated by Ernildir, after his father died, Aragorn was renamed Estel to keep him hidden and was not told about his heritage until 2951. Around Bree and the Shire he was known as Strider. Aragorn served his lords in disguise and his name in Gondor and Rohan duri...

Re: Vest, hood... what to do with a nice piece of oiled leat
Thanks for the feedback. My thoughts were that a leather hood might provide some waterproof protection.
I ended up draping the leather over my head- it's awfully heavy, and if I want a winter hood, I'd probably want it of wool with fur around the face, anyway.
I think I'll go for the jerkin/vest.

Vest, hood... what to do with a nice piece of oiled leather
I've got a nice piece of oiled leather, and I have a friend who is a tailor and historical reenactor (mostly French-Indian and forward) who I know will be able to turn it into an awesome vest or hood with mantle. I'm just realy conflicted which one.
Any suggestions? Designs?
Thanks.

Re: New Finds- Please read the first post before replying
The axe and non migration sword were my focal points (I liked the spear but it was a bonus.) I have a nice hewing spear already. The offer stands, I would love to do some work for you, say the word! Whatever I can do would be my pleasure. :mrgreen: I applied to join the forum so that I could send a...
