I see! Well I would imagine they might have a mix of "shin" bones which are both metatarsus and metacarpus in the shin pile. The back legs are metatarsus, and are rounder which I want. Unfortunatly I may only be able to find an adults :/ I don't suppose a local farm would have a CALF's bone. I don't see any suitable $3-4 bones on Legio xx's site :/ sigh :evil:
And really Crispvs, no need to be so polite
I take forever to show progress, maybe some others do but I am still unhappy with what time is allowed to be dedicated to recreations.
Earlier today I bought a 10" brass sheet. I looked at it and brass showed different qualities than I expected from a 10" sheet, so yes, 15 would be a pain to stamp!!! Sorry for my ignorance!!! I will produce maybe 6 belt plates. I am going to try using rods, and a raised female to stamp the rod into my plate, curving the plate the majority of the way for a barrel. Don't worry results will show in time
As for not having a brass plate for a guard, I must ignore good looks and go with a recessed blade.
Anyway, maybe some good news by tomorrow night, thanks
Sam
