I have posted this one on Ye Olde Tavern so forgive me if some of you have already seen this message... Being a woodcarver and a cabinetmaker, I have made a few wooden chests in my time. Most were of my own design, but culled from various sources or bespoken by a client. I am now looking to create a sort of “all purpose” sea chest that will visually fit in with the general GAoP period, yet be able to be disassembled and stowed flat for the constraints of modern travel. I am certainly capable of making a replica piece, but that is not my intention here. I want to make a series of good, and serviceable chests that will look well enough as a background piece, yet be sturdy…

Since there are now a few of us Pub members with Etsy sites, and more (I think) are considering opening up shops of their own on that forum, I thought it would be nice to have a place we could post updates of when we add new things for folks to check out. And, well, you know, with Christmas coming and all, it seemed like a good time to start this thread. So, ck here for announcements about all the things you can buy, made by your fellow Pub members who have set up Etsy shops to sell their fine wares. Better than Ebay, as there is no bidding...you see it, you like it, you buy it. Easy! I have added a few new items to my shop today, so click on the link in my signature,…

I have contacted a shoe manufacturer (in Canada) who can make a Straight lasted early 18th Century shoe. His claim is that he can make a Sarah Juniper Shoe at a C&D Jarnagin price. If you would like to see some shoes from these makers, go HERE These shoes would be mostly machine stitched but vegetable tan leather and all the correct details for the period. Cost would be $135 (without buckles) and would be paid half upfront and half at delivery. we would need 30 orders to move ahead.... anyone interested? GoF

My luck is shared upon you. I have recently found a new larger cannon and have to part with one of my current pieces to cover the difference in price. Since this has come up unexpectedly I must try to come up with the money as soon as possible or I will lose my chance. This cannon is a 3 foot bronze gun (1.5 inch bore) with all the correct rings setting it perfectly in the golden age of piracy. On top of the barrel there is a raised skull and cross bones, this could be removed if desired. Extra time and effort has gone into creating a beautiful patina on the barrel making this look authentic. Not much effort would be required to bring this gun to a polish. …

In the Fabric Whore thread, it was suggested that a thread be started to help those of us who have over flowing fabric bins to break our addiction. Or to help the fabric "have nots" get some good stuff to start their pirate projects. So If your fabric locker is busting at the seems, list the stuff that you know you are probably not going to "get to" here. ***NOTE*** As this is under "Plunder", all types of fabric will probably be listed. That means all types of pirates (Historical, Theatrical, and Festival) will be looking. Please try to describe the fabric as best you can, which should include fibre content if known, along with length and width and brief descript…

Hey all Over the last week I've been working on a new period item... Leather costrels. I will have one of the two prototypes with me at Beaufort this weekend (one of the prototypes turned out very bad), and I am thinking of taking orders on these in the near future if there is interest. The main advantage of these leather costrels, is they don't break like glass does. They are also historically accurate... Here is link to a 17th century one Here's another link to a late 17th century costrel Here's another image of a costrel from the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, it is close in size to my sample above (photo curtesy of Kate Souris) There is also an image of a c…

Hello folks! I wanted to let you know that we now have a new product in our line of fine period reenactment, pirate, and nautical goods... We have reproduced the ring found on the wreckage of the Whydah. The original was gold, but at $900 an ounce, that's not very affordable. So, we had these made in brass. They are accurate copies of the original ring and are available in many common sizes. Please let me know what size you need. I only have a few in stock right now, but I have more coming soon, so if I don't have your size, I'll put you on the backorder list which should only take a couple of weeks. They are $25 each. Here is a picture: And here is a picture of th…

Ahoy Mates! I am thinking of buying a new cutlass and wondered if you historical types could point me in the direction of the best and most authentic commercially available replica of a cutlass on the market today? I would prefer it to be a functional replica, not a wall hanger made with cast metal parts. I have found one on the internet, referred to on several sites as a "rustic pirate's cutlass", and so far it is closest to fitting my bill, but I thought you all might know of somewhere else that had one a bit better. I like the plain, no-nonsense, aged and worn look of this cutlass. To my mind it comes closer to the type of sword a common pirate would have had. Than…

This is a custom made Letter of Marque that can be issued by Queen Anne, King George the first or King George the Second. It is 18" x 25" like many of the original ones and has the strip of seals at the bottom like like original documents of the era too. It was researched as much as I could from actual letters or marque, royal charters and indentures to make it as authentic as possible. It is witnessed by the correct secretary of state for the perod and a representative of the Admiralty and features the seal and signature of the King or Queen. All the signatures are actual reproductions of surviving examples. It can be customised with your name, the name of your…

I'm looking to acquire one.One that is functional,workable,durable.I've heard good things about the Dutch cutlass from MRL,which is coming back onto the market next Spring. Can anybody tell me if it's more that just a wall decoration? What about the other cutlasses from MRL/Atlanta Cutlery?I'm afraid of getting something that will shatter in use? I talked to a knifemaker in Elyria,Ohio,who would make me a copy of the Dutch cutlass,and wanted $3,000. What about the Cold Steel 1917 Cutlass?Is it useable and viable?I was thinking of customizing one.

Okay, I'm probably going to make it anyway, cuz I want one and I only work in leather, but what are the historical justifications for a light, buff leather justacorps? I started out making a simple civilian early 1700s coat, but saw the pattern offered by Reconstructing History, with the enormous cuffs.....and I may just go that way. I've made three full-length theatrical pirate coats already6 out of leather, but I'm thinking of going more "proper" with the construction of this one. Thoughts?

I found a ship's doctor kit, complete with provenance dating it to the early/mid 1800s on eBay. It's too pricey for my collection and it's a little too far from GaOP, but it's still really neat. It gives a small insight into how ship's surgeon's kits were designed. Check it out here.

I want to make myself a pirate flag. I have the design ready but have no idea how to make one other than starting with a large rectangular peice of cloth. Does anyone out there made their own flags? What materials did you use? How did you put symbols on the flag? Painted on? Sewn on? Does anyone know how the Golden Age pirates such as Blackbeard or Calico Jack made theirs? Thanks for any help.

Here is an idea. Lets do a weekly online class to make a hand sewn 18th Century shirt. Fall is here and its getting darker and colder outside so this is something we can do to prepare for next spring/summer's event season. (I am sure Hurricane and all the other Florida and West Coast folks are laughing at us now but they are welcome to join in as well!) Here is how it works. Get some fabric and sewing supplies, and we will come up with a weekly "lesson" that breaks down the shirtmaking into little pieces so that by the end of the 8 weeks (I am guessing at a time frame) all the participants should have a completed hand sewn authentic Early 18th Century "pirate" shirt…
