Wooooh, finally time for an update!
So here we are, at the end of my first few months training as a blacksmith before the summer begins. Well, I haven't managed to get too far in making swords/fancy ass plate armours yet. Our teacher is far too conservative for that...but what I have done is start making things in my spare time that do not require the use of a forge.
SO...I am making and selling Chainmail and Scalemail. The scales, I have pondered making 'fur'suit tails/full body setups for my scaly friends out there, along with anything people can think up [within reason].

Well, it's been a long while since I updated this profile, mainly thanks to work and other background issues. But I am announcing today my return to making.
My main offer at the moment is Scale-maille products, items such as arm covers and assorted Armour pieces.
Originally I wasn't going to bother posting these items here, but I was advised by a friend and fellow fur to at least advertise here. So here goes:
All you Scaly folks out there, if you want a more...scale-like appearance [as opposed to fluff dragons], well your boat has come in. I offer a range of colors, and with the right references I will do my best to match coloration.
I am however bound by my supplying company, as the scales come only in two sizes, and if the colour is out of stock, I have to wait until they replenish.
Also, Making this stuff takes time....lots of it...I'm not knitting this stuff, its all being hand made with rings and pliers. My best time so far for making is about a square foot in a day or so, and that's assuming I have all the bits I need, and a simple pattern.
For all the none scalies, well...you are also welcome to purchase, and I will be happy to make bespoke items for anyone. Prices will be agreed on before work commences, and the cost of the rings/scales will have to be paid for upfront, as I can only keep a small supply on hand at any one time.
Pictures of completed projects will follow soon.
