My latest toy!
#1
This link show you all my latest construction. It is for training and is loosly based on a basic germanic shield! The painting is purly fantasy and just for fun. I use it as a allround nonstraped shield for training! It is about 65 cm in diameter! The buckle is a spinning and not that accurate but it works!

How come did you get the rawhide edging? From a fake bitting dog bone from a pet shop?

There's a shop in Germany who even sells rawhide strips for shield edgings - www.reenactors.de . I think they charge about 6 € for the meter (although the strips are usually longer than that)
