Upgraded Albion Terminals

[M. CVRIVS ALEXANDER]

Many of us have Albion apron terminals, still available here for a buck or so a piece. Our centurio Edge Gibbons partially tinned mine, and then I perked them up using the pattern from a Vindonissa find. I used a center punch from a hardware store, and it took me about 3.5 hours to do six of them w/o any prior experience. Below is a pic featuring an original piece from Albion, a Vindonissa pattern, and the result of my unskilled labor.

Those look very good! Too bad that I'm located across the pond. I'd pay more on bank fees than the actual product

Jef, I used a credit card when I bought some last year. No bank fees. Check with Mike there, his email address is in a link at the top of the page.

I have a set of those and thought they were rather generic. You've made them look much better!

Well done Alex! I have an original pendant of that type and it too has hand-punched curls, etc. I do mine that way and it really makes a big difference to how cool and authentic the pendants look :wink:

They look great, Brother.

Nice work, Alex. The difference is amazing.

Excellent job! I was going to buy some of those terminals...but even though they're on for 5/$10 or something, it was going to cost $20 to ship lol.
