  4. progress... two coats of black stain on the outside and one inside. I'm going to distress it a bit this week. I'm still not happy with the hinges. They will be replaced soon.
  5. I'll keep an eye out for you Rumba! I'm not sure if we will be able to make it this weekend but we will next weekend for sure!
  6. Thanks all! Since this is just a practice box I am using cheap Home Depot hinges. I may change them out for more PC ones later and add a lock as I'm pretty happy with how it is turning out. I am finishing up staining it black and distressing it a bit. I'm trying to decide it I want to tar the rope handles or not. I'll post some pics later next week. Wicked Jim, If you would like to see any more pics of the bag just let me know. Thanks again all, -Scott (j8ksdad)
  7. Spent a few hours with a friend making a new shoulder bag, knife sheath, head covers for my boarding axe and a frog for my axe. Made a small chest for practice. Painting will be finished later this week.

    Aye she is a working piece. This was taken at Big Bear this year by our own Oderlesseye just after the battle reenactment. Thanks for the comments. Fair winds

  11. Received mine yesterday. They are all great! Thanks everyone.
  12. Oh man! That's great! I really want a short jacket. Did you make that yourself? Thanks! I bought the hemp canvas, osnaberg and paterns for the shirt, jacket and trousers from Reconstructing History and the buttons from Greg (GoF) Anything visable is hand sewn including the button holes. My mother-in-law did all of the sewing for me. (she really likes me) I dyed the jacket using products from Dharma Trading Company. The hemp canvas shrunk a lot when washing out the dye. The sleeves are about 2" to short now but it dosen't really bother me.
