Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - hephestus - 09-26-2009 Dear friends, I bring you into view some pages of my site with the first reproductions for the museum "LuigiFantini" at Monterenzio. Tomb No. 107 of the necropolis of Montetamburino - Monte Bibele (Bologna - Italy) the sword with the scabbard: [url:1mmlxy6l]http://www.hephestus.net/spada_celtica_montetamburino.htm[/url] the javelin: [url:1mmlxy6l]http://www.hephestus.net/lancia%20tomba%20107.htm[/url] Sorry for my bad english. Valete Re: Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - Virilis - 09-26-2009 Wow Vincenzo, looks absolutely great hock: !!! Re: Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - jvrjenivs - 09-26-2009 Another wonderful repro you made here, Vincenzo. Could you explain how exactly the closing system of the sword scabbard works. As far as I understand you slide together the 2 sides of the scabbard, and then put on the 3rd piece to fix all together, but how does this 3rd piece function? Is it just the pressure this piece has on the 2 pieces of the scabbard, or is it 'clasped' behind some rim on one of the scabbard plates. I'm wondering about this for some time now. Re: Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - hephestus - 09-26-2009 Thanks for the compliments, I'm very happy you like my work. The two sides of the sheath are separated to make the working of nailing support for the chain and to decorate the front and nailing of the 3rd piece. The spike is nailed through the two circles above the front plate. The lower part is inserted to scroll to get stuck in "wedge". The last inch of scrolling required to exercise pressure to fit in and you're done. The thrusts of the sword hangs over the back. I hope I have explained well with the translation of google translator Re: Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - Nieczar - 09-26-2009 this sword is amazing hock: ....great stuff Re: Replicas for the museum at Monterenzio (Italy) - M. Demetrius - 09-27-2009 Without putting a caliper to it, I'd have to say that's as close to an exact copy as I've ever seen. Excellent work, Heph. Purely excellent.
