Cast iron is interesting: I have been given to understand that cast iron 
for cookpots are of a later date than the SCA (or at least very late 
period). Can you provide any information on this? It would be very 
usefull if cast iron pots and pans are useable in "enchanted ground" 
settings.

Now, if I could only get hold of a chunk of soapstone large enought for a 
cookpot...
