Hey all:

Ultimately, I'm hoping to make both square shields and dished rounds,
but if these operations require heavy industrial rollers and spinners,
then I'd rather not spend the dough on such a large press. Does anyone
have any advice to give?


Ask the fighters in the SCA how they make dished shields and stuff.
Go here and look around until you find a group near you, then visit
and ask questions.
