The Celts are coming!
Just back from demonstrating iron age leatherworking at the 'celts are coming' living history fair at the Scottish Crannog Centre on Loch Tay. It was a superb wee event, I had David Mcgovern of Monikie rock arts and Jon Mac woodcarver either side of me, and we had Neil Burridge casting bronze swords, some fellas doing bog iron refining, tablet weaving, Theresa Kamper with her skins and tanning gear, and Peter Annanin of Woodland Knowledge with more skins and tanning, and some iron age cooking/foods.
I stayed on for an extra two days to attend Neils bronze sword workshop where we all cast a sword together, then were each given a pre master cast blank to work on as our own.
