I don't know what's scarier. The cingulum or the fact that the seller is an eBay "Power Seller" with over 3000 sales to his credit.... on 9/3/03 12:31 AM, Gil...
Saw this site and thought it might help our quest: http://www.brettunsvillage.com/leather/sides.htm $70 for 1 Dz. hides sounds good. Caius, howmany square feet...
This is indeed an excellent price, except that we need fairly supple leather to make the tent and it should be brown. The Goat hides listed are black and firm,...
Actually, we should track this travesty. If it sells for more than its $69.99 starting bid, we should have a fundraiser Fabricum and make ten better ones for...
This is hilarious. I got a real laugh out of that one, especially the five pointed stars that make it look like a fourth grade class project. That apron is...
I like the alligator pattern ones on the site. Dio ... From: "nabbitt13" <ronglass@...> Date: Wednesday, September 3, 2003 8:03 am Subject: [Legio VI]...
I'm thinking we may get a max of 3sq. ft. per hide which is about 84 total of 7 bundles or about $490. Time to get those funds rolling in ;) ... supple leather...
It would work for LARP armor. ~smile~ Neeters ... From: legiovi@yahoogroups.com [mailto:legiovi@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2003 7:28 AM ...
Egad, man... WORSE? A BRASS Roman Trooper helm with the eyebrows, earguards, and trim is SILVER? I think reenactors worldwide are unanymous in condemning the...
AVETE! After discussing our campaign plans for Sept with the legion, those who responded have voted to adjust our schedule. OLD schedule: Griffith Park Bird...
Yikes! Sure anything works for fantasy, but why? The real thing looks way cooler and, as in this case, is often CHEAPER. Good to here from you Neeters. BTW,...
Allow me to add to number 16. When using a jigsaw to cut sheet metal, always wear two pairs of goggles, because you WILL get those timy metal slivers in your...
I enjoyed Scaevola's comment about reaching for the melon-baller to scoop out his eyeballs. I guess I was just expecting something less in the general form of...
Question, since it is no longer a two day hike, are we definitely doing the GP hike on Sat., the 27th? Or are we intending it to be the usual fourth Sunday of...
I generally prefer Sundays for hikes myself, but that's just me. Kit: I'm down to one loaner lorica, and it's a mess right now. Heath has one, Jared has one,...
Sundays work for me as well. Until proper footwear is constructed, a decent pair of sturdy leather sandals from Sears or even leather boots should suffice,...
Avete all: (if in fact avete is correct, if not please substitute) As this is my first posting, I'll introduce myself, Jared Fleury, 1st encounter with Rome,...
Avete, Jared: This is Dio, whom you met at both Caius' and Darius', and we possibly saw each other briefly at the faire. Welcome aboard. If you can pick any...
Avete (greetings) Omnes (everyone)! My wife, Jenna (seeking a period Briton name), suggested Augustus or some derivitave thereof, since you're also in St....
Avete Omnes: Dio and Gaius, thanks for your ideas, I would like to think of a way to incorporate some of each. I am not sure of any of my family name ...
Does anyone have the Albion gladius? I am wondering if the Albion sword fits the Deepeka scabbard. If someone has one and could bring the weapon to the...
