Dem,
Thanks! The plates are about the same thickness as a door "kick plate" and the mice are a bit thinner. I hand cut each mouse from a template and hand chiseled and filed them to shape. It took awhile.
I also like the posts with your belt. The brass/copper color is nice. You also solved an issue I had concerning how to come up with pugio frog/disc that follows the motiff of the plates being used. I like how you used an extra plate and trimmed out the circle. I hope to see it in person some day!
