I've been offline for a bit, but I'm getting back on the horse and establishing a new normal. Here's a prototype (and speculative!) frame saw. It's petite and bijou, ideal for working with bone & antler and will sit along side the York saw I made earlier this year!

A reproduction of a small buckle and strap slide from Coppergate, York (late 9th-early tenth, and mid tenth century respectively). These are often associated with horse fittings, although may have been dress items. #earlymedieval #vikingyork

Wednesday can do one, had a bit of a frustrating day in the workshop! But here's a prototype iron ringed pin based on one from Dublin (DRP46), early 11th Century. I feel better now!
