Re: "Ranger's Apprentice"

I saw these just a couple months ago for the first time on a shelf at the grocery store, and I have to admit, I sort of rolled my eyes. They looked like your typical poorly written young-adult drivel, and I figured they were probably not worth my time. But after hearing about them here I was intrigu...

Re: Belts

It seems pretty straightforward actually, but I haven't done it yet. It's definitely been on my agenda for a while now. However, I do have this link to a great facebook group that can help you find any and all resources you need:

Re: Another Outing (Caution; Pic-Heavy)

Good point! I don't think that would be out of the question here either, if you really wanted to give it some extra strength. Might also help weight down the corners a bit.

Re: Another Outing (Caution; Pic-Heavy)

Hahaha... Elven paracord indeed! Brilliant! Anyhow, I'd almost say why not just take an even simpler route: assuming one is folliwng the "Greg Method" and using a heavy canvas cloak to double for their shelter tarp, Why not just sew heavy-duty buttonholes or grommets (like they used to hav...

Re: Combination scabbard/quivers

And actually, if your sword rig was set up the right way, and slung high enough at your waist, in theory this could totally be adapted to take full-size arrows. I bet a falchion/quiver combo would look great for someone doing an archer/ranger.

Re: Archer's glove

Those are great looking! Well done! Would you be willing or have to time to show what the two parts of your half glove and bracer look like separated? Don't mean to harrass, but I've been trying to work out a pattern for that or a similar inner glove, and it's just not happening. Planning for my nex...

Haha, yeah I definitely think I'll need to at least try, because these sound great. I'm from Denver, Colorado, so it'd be a bit of a drive, heh.

Re: Indy Moot Spring 2012

This concept sounds amazing. I truly wish I could attend. Unfortunately, I doubt it'll be feasible between work, other obligations, and my fairly consistent money issues. Not to mention the fact that I'm pretty sure my girlfriend would think I had gone crazy, and I'd never hear the end of it (she's ...
