Kite shield
Sir Patrick:
Thank you for the kind words, Sir Wolf & Sir Andrew!
Sir Ulrich:
Nice shield I wan't one similar with my own coat of arms. I think I'm gonna try the dogbone idea. Seems cheap enough for me to make my own shield, just gotta convince someone to help me ¬_¬
Sir Matthew:
Where do you live at, because I'd be willing to help. I'm going to be making a couple of shields myself and might need a little assistance so maybe we could work out a you help me I help you deal if you aren't too far away.

Shield cost (not counting the press, which I threw together out of scap I had lying around):
2 2ftx4ftx 1/4 inch plywood panels: $16
2 Big dog chews: $5
2 boxes of carpet tacks: $3
1 Bottle TItebond wood glue: $5
1&1/2 yards duck canvas: $6
2 belts from the Goodwill for straps: $5
4 1/4inch carriage bolts: $3
4 washers: $1
TOTAL: $44
Granted, I had the felt backing and all the paints already, but you're still looking at a lot less that the $130 you said you'd be willing to pay. That would turn out a lot of shields!
Sir Brian:
Excellent work! That is a beautifully done job! :)
