Viking Shield - Making Of

▶ Check what Tools I use on Kit: https://kit.co/EpicWorkshop ▶ Support me on Patreon:   / epicworkshop   I made this shield using pine wood which was from roof structure. The planks are 8 mm thick, so whole shield is 16 mm thick. Shield diameter is 80,5 cm which is historically accurate although the measures varied from 75 - 90 cm. I used metal thumbtacks to attach the eco leather around the rim. The leather is sewed by my father :) The cloth is actually my old bed sheets (linen) The shield boss is a cheap dog bowl from stainless steel, I used hydrochloric acid to achieve aged look. The bowl was shaped by my neighbour Vittorio who is a metal worker. And also thanks to my brother Andrea and his wife Barbara for helping with shield :) Like, comment and share!
