[Ansteorra] Fwd: [SCA_S&I] Scroll frames

[Stefan li Rous]

Thanks for sending this, Hillary. I hadn't realized you could pay  
that much for a frame!

That frame is certainly something to aspire to. For those with  
simpler tastes, here is a general file on framing scrolls which some  
folks might find of use:
framing-velum-msg  (8K)  4/ 4/01    Framing vellum and parchment.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/SCRIBAL-ARTS/framing-velum-msg.html

Tetchubah also talked of making her own quills and a bit about  
gilding. Here are some files, also in the same area, SCRIBAL ARTS, on  
these topics.
Easy-Gilding-art  (10K)  4/ 9/02    "Gilding Made Easy" by Master  
Giles de Laval
gold-leaf-msg     (18K)  3/ 7/96    Working with gold leaf, tools.
quills-msg        (20K) 11/29/02    Making quill pens. Pen knives.
