Re: Proper sub forum for post

I’d probably stick to “outings,” personally. At least, that’s where I’ve always been inclined to post about that sort of thing in the past, until the “Random Adventure Pictures” thread popped up - and even then, I don’t always want to post that sort of thing in there if there’s more to share than ju...

Re: What's everyone working on?

The one thing I haven't had sorted out for my Second Age kit has been a suitable water container. I figured a waterskin of some sort would be most appropriate but didn't know much beyond that...idly checked facebook market for a bota a few months ago but didn't pursue any too far. Then, this week I...

Re: I got a rock!

Well the main reason I ask is because I’ve been offering these Strider whetstones through my Etsy shop, which I use real stones for - but I’ve had to just dig through the landscaping rock beds around my neighborhood (and elsewhere) to try and find appropriately sized and shaped landscaping rocks, an...

Re: I got a rock!

Hello, my name is Ulfr, and I am a rock addict... Ok on a serious note, the jade whetstone sent me down a rabbit hole. After some research and digging on our farm.... I grabbed a chunk of sandstone, ran it through the stone saw, and tried it... I took my old barn hatchet to try and sharpen. It put ...

Re: MERF Random Adventure Pictures

Another outing was had yesterday, with the Misty Mountain Rangers! We went down to the 3D archery range/hiking trail at Cheyenne Mountain State Park in Colorado Springs, for some archery adventures! Andy was originally planning to meet up with us for this one, since it’s in his neck of the woods, an...

Re: New Coin Purse (Or: Little Pouch; Big Headache?)

Thanks again, everybody! And I just realized - a perfect example of the style of pouch I was talking about always doing before now is actually visible in these very pictures! In the second batch of pics, the tobacco pouch in the background is made with that same commercially-chrome-tanned leather, a...

Re: New Coin Purse (Or: Little Pouch; Big Headache?)

Thanks folks! It’s funny - this wasn’t really on my to-do list, but once it popped into my head I just couldn’t get it out. And I’m glad, because I now feel like it’s kind of an essential little piece of kit! On a roll and kicking goals yet again Manv! There's simply nothing here not to like. If I c...

Colorado Renaissance Feistval Meet-up!

Hey, I just wanted to post this here for anyone who may potentially be interested! I am organizing a large Tolkien/Middle-earth meetup on opening day of the Colorado Renaissance Festival, June 17th! I don’t know if you would necessarily call it a proper “Ranger moot,” since I am opening it to anyone...

New Coin Purse (Or: Little Pouch; Big Headache?)

Okay, so it seems a little silly, perhaps, to write such a long post about such a small item, but when has that ever stopped me before, right? (And besides, that’s sort of what the entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy is, if you think about it.) :lol: Anyhow, as I mentioned in my recent “Treasure!” post...
