Another week, another seven days of routine. I've discovered a new hobby to quell the boredom at work, however. I was browsing a little store in the mall called Cutting Edge Cutlery one day which sells all kinds of medieval weapons and armor, both historical and fantastical, and I found they had begun to stock scale mail armor making kits. I was intrigued, so I bought one and am having a blast putting together my own full suit of scale mail. For those who aren't familiar with it, scale mail is a cross between chain mail and plate armor, consisting of small metal scales held together by rings. The suit I'm making will probably take about 2000 scales and twice as many rings and should be finished in a couple weeks, money permitting.
I can't wait until it's done and I can post pictures. It will be glorious.
