Roz was a bad girl, again….
I will get better about posting, I promise.
Lets see…. I finally started my helmet with Ingelri. Let me start off by saying that Ingelri has been very helpful in getting in my quest for the Coppergate style helm. He even ordered the really cool book on the find. That book has scale drawings of the original, plus a plethora of other pretty spiff (and sure to turn heads…) helmets.
So, on Sunday the 11th I finally got into the shop. Ingelri already had a pattern made, to his head, so we just added a bit (OK, no comments from the peanut gallery, but my head is and inch and a half bigger than his…) to accommodate my noggin. Unfortunately, that was not enough, not to be able to get any padding in too…. So, the first piece of loner gear I will be donating will be done soon…
Wonder why I never published this, or the other posts? Who knows?
