Workshop Open Day 10 March - 11:00-16:00

TORM The Original Reenactors Market - 16-18 March 2012
If you can’t get to see us at the Workshop Open Day and are in the Coventry area pop along to the market where we will have a stall…
After eating our own body weight in turkey, mince pies, chocolates and the odd beer over the Christmas period we are back in the workshop and having a sort out. At present we have managed to photograph our Steampunk range and also sort out some more Special Offers for you:
Another sort through the stock has yielded some more bargins:
- Lightweight Shirts – bargin at £10
- Short Sleeve Tunic – we are discontinuing the colour (Maroon) – £25
- Various armours – prototypes, “seconds”, end of line
Following yesterdays Steampunk Shako and Mask we have done a version of a Swiss pair of gaiters. Done in a copper foil based leather but hope to be building a pair in brown today and timing to get a price for them.
We are working on some Steampunk items and here is our first (photographed!) effort. A Shako inspired hat with a basic facemask. Now we have the basic form we will be working on what we can do to one or both…ideas on a postcard ?
After recently attending a re-enactment fayre we were asked if we had any Brigandine. After a day of altering patterns and cutting some leather we have come up with 2 versions of a Brigandine – a short and long. Looks a bit strange compared to our normal LARP Armour as this fastens at the front but we think this Brigandine looks good, and different, and will hopefully appeal to the re-enacter and LARP guys alike….
New Products
- Hoods – a new hood (Offset) in the form of an asymetrical look and a set of limited available colours to choose from in our range.
- Dragon Lord Armour – (pictured) scales, scales and scales to keep you safe
- Dragon Scale Skirt – to keep your legs from being hacked off…
- Elven Part Scabbard – it’s a part scabbard for Elves…
- Ryder Armour – we have amended the sizing so it now goes to a 56inch chest, for the more robust warrior.
Special Offers We have stuffed our Special Offers page with lots of goodies. Some items are one-offs, old friends, or prototype items we have been playing with…
New Coloured Engraved Range We have re-launched our engraved range with some new images and the ability to have the engraved image coloured. Don’t forget, we may be able to engrave your own image on a product…drop us an email and we can discuss what we can do.
The Original Re-Enactors Market
We will be atending the above on 11, 12, 13 November near Coventry. We might see you there…
Well, the school holiday is coming to a close and it is time to return to the workshop to help Tim out building orders and creating new designs and stuff over the winter.
Some work is also required on the website - just fine tuning and sorting out the odds and sods that we didn’t get round to during the season.
Hopefully we will have some new stuff up on here shortly….
