Talk:How to Construct a Functional Shield in 21 Not-So-Easy Steps

Nice job with the shield! I have not had a change to read through the article yet, but I will before long. At first glance, you need to put a photo of you holding the finished product at the top. I will also try to get to that as well. Any way, nicely done! -nova 19:45, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Well, thank you. It was quite a bit of work since I had never made something like it before, and I must once again give kudos to Dad for helping me out. If I make more in the future, they'll look a little prettier than this one, this was the trial run for functionality.

Now, to learn smithing... because wooden armor with sheet metal plating would be awfully heavy. =P  - Lord Rumfish, 9:30 PM, Sept. 28th, 2009. (EST)

I just want to sincerely congratulate you on a job well done. That is freaking epic. Good pics too and I found the article a fun read. - Zerm

I tried to make it an interesting read, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm still waiting on a field test of it... James is now insisting we need armor, lol. - LR, 10/6/09
