New banner/lance.
« on: 2013-10-25, 21:08:17 »
I converted a two-piece flag pole for convenience of transportation. A quick paint job with some satin finish spray paint and it can almost pass for a lance painted with 'milk paint'! ;)

btw, the place I purchased the flag pole was from CRW flags in Glen Burnie Maryland and I bought one of their 'warped' wooden 9' poles that I cut a foot off. They also sell just the coupling joints if someone wanted to put them on a pair of dowels.

That is a very fine spear. I especially enjoy the flag.

Looks great, but need a bit more breeze to show off your banner better.  :)

Hopefully tomorrow @ PARF I'll have more of a breeze to show the banner! ;)

It is always that way for trendsetters and it only becomes cool after the second and third person does it! ;)

So Sir Wolf gets points for originality and Sir Brian just gets to follow his fine example. Sorry, no points for second best in this category. :) lol Sir Wolf wins the "I did it first so Ha-Ha" award. Sir Brian gets the "I did it better than you did" gift certificate (redeemable at any SCA event). There, now we can all be friends again.

Nicely done, Sir Brian- I should've thought of that myself (found an old 2pc flag pole in the old condo during the move, but can't remember what I did with it).  Your kit overall is most impressive.
