[Nfb-krafters-korner] SCA

[Terrence van Ettinger]

Hello there Marianne,
	This depends on what you mean by "role".  My persona is Scottish, miff 1500s.  I do a variety of things, from occasional heralding to music to various crafts as they catch my attention.  You might say I'm sort of a jact-of-all-trades as it were.  I don't have a specific role within the organization per se; I was local hospitaler (basically newcomers' support/recruitment person) for the local group here in Anchorage, though stepped down for a while as the rest of my life got rather difficult for a few months.  Now that things have balanced out for the most part, I may well offer to take that up again as it seems no one's replaced me yet.
If you're interested in living history, I definitely recommend pursuing the SCA; it's a great group of people, and no matter what your interest, there's bound to be something related to it in period.

Terrence, with his Angus MacLaren hat on.

>> Hello, all,
>> Just thought I'd go ahead and give you all a bit of an intro, having just come on board last night.  I do a couple different crafts, mostly things I've taken up in the SCA over the past 3 years, some of which I practice fairly regularly, others I sort of dabble in.  My 2 most frequent craft types are kumihimo braiding and lucet, though I am trying to pick up inkle weaving more consistently.  I also have a coiled basket that I've been working on sporadically for some time now, and occasionally do a bit of leather work.  I think I've leaned toward the cord-making methods so much because of their portability.  For a while, I was a woodturner, before I moved to take my current job, but that didn't work out for a number of reasons.  I have also dabbled a bit in Origami, but it's been a while. It's something I mean to pick up again at some point though and learn a few more designs.  I'm looking forward to hearing from everyone and perhaps picking up some new ideas.  And if anyone has questions about anything I've mentioned, I'll be more than happy to explain/answer anything.
