John has been busy preparing the silicon bronze rings for his grant project that he mentioned in his last post. To prepare the rings he uses pliers to partially open about half of the rings, and close the other half of the rings making the two ends flush. All together they will total to be around 60,000 rings for the Shirt, Coif and Mantle. 
I have been working on something we haven’t done before, women’s belts. I am just starting off with a simple design to see if it is something that people are interested in.
Also! This weekend we are beginning preparations for Art in the Park coming up in the middle of July. Keep an eye out on our facebook page for updates!
