    Wooden chainmail! I think...

    So, I was over at a friend-of-a-friend's house, and they had these interesting looking place mats: As far as I can tell, they're just flat, wooden "beads" with two strings going through each one. The question is, if you could find beading thread strong enough, maybe double-triple up on it...

    Silk Screening; What is it good for?

    A long time ago I made a large stencil for making skeleton shirts for monster camp, and they turned out really well. Unfortunately, it wasn't as streamlined as I had hoped. Now, I have a friend who's interested in possibly building a basic silk screening set-up, and I was wondering, what types...

    Combat shovel *EDIT* And costume questions!

    Hey, I'm sure there are people out there that use shovels as weapons, but I don't think that I've seen any pictures of them. Here's a shovel that I made about a year ago, and plan on using for my first Alliance event (Previously a Nero player): EDIT: Stupid Photobucket! No matter how I resize...

    Quick question: American Wire Gauge, or Standard?

    I'm ordering chainmail rings from theringlord.com, and it has rings listed in both American Wire Gauge and Standard Wire Gauge. One is always thicker, and knowing the difference might save me a bundle of money. Just need to know which standard the armor requirements adhere to. Thanks.

    Forget latex weapons; What about foam latex SHIELDS?

    As somone who has built a couple of curved fiberglass shields, I gotta say that I love 'em! That little bit of wrap-around works wonders for protection, and curved shields are immediately more pleasing to the eye, in my opinion. But fiberglass involves a whole lot of fumes and other things that...

    European larps LOOK cool, but would they work for us?

    I would like to start a discussion about the differences between European and American larps. Having only played the latter, I would greatly appreciate the input of anyone with experience in Euro larps, or even just thoughts, theories, or opinions. Here's the basic run-down: European medieval...
