Shop update

On Wednesday we had a fairly busy open shop. Master Jovian came and got the chin strap installed on his Maciejowski bible helm. Renee and Giovanni got some reinforcing installed in a rapier gorget. Don Maelgwyn cut out the plates for his new helm, and we worked on welding up a tool for him to form the crest ridge on. Martel made some progress on the bars for her helmet, and I welded a crack in her knight's hat.

Maelgwyn gave me a 1/8 inch punch and die which fit my Whitney punches but not his. It was mighty generous, and that's the size I use most.
