Advice for tendons: after soaking them extremely thoroughly, take a very smooth faced hammer or planed smooth wooden mallet and a smooth anvil or planed hardwood board and pound the soaked tendon between them. This separates the fibres somewhat and let’s you twist the tendon as a whole to control flexibility and add strength.

This is a shield of the crossbowmen of Pavia, it was left attached to the back, when the crossbowman reloaded the weapon, he turned with his back towards the enemy,In this way the enemy's counter-fire hit the Pavia shield. The Pavia crossbowmen were mercenaries who fought throughout Europe.
@TheShieldery6 ай бұрын
yes that's one of the theories; what it doesn't explain is the nose, the large staple behind the nose and the center grip. I think it also got set up on the gound in some way. Then the crossbowman can reload behind it and only peak above quickley when shooting. The legs are also protected and caus the dude is sitting, he makes a smaller target. It was used in most of europe btw. this specific piece was made in Bohemia, as you can see on the museums page which I linked in the description :) .

Love it! I go back and forth on using Ti white in my projects. TiO2 does occur naturally in the crystal known as Rutile. Most white pigments appear clear in the tree resin ethanol varnish medium that I make, so I find myself having to use Ti sometimes . Egg tempura might give nore options. Would Chinese white (made from shells) work? And fillers/extenders like Barite, Chalk, Talc, Kaolin Clay are white or white-ish in water based mediuns. Nihonga or Japanese style painting uses skin glue as the binder. They use cinnabar without too much caution (not suggesting you do the same), and they use a white usually made from shells. I finish electric guitars with modern looking finished using all natural and historical materials. I actually just made a pickguard using rabbit skin glue and linnen over paper (sounds just like your shield when you scratch or tap it) ... historical plastic!

Thank you! I think I'm gonna use/try eggshell-white the next time; the problem with all those "white" pigemnts is, that they are not truly white or they aren't opaque enough and caus of that they adapt a lot of the binding agents color. Then you also got the Problem that a lot of the "whiteness" comes from the surface roughthness, like with sugar dolomite or glass sand - when mixed with the binding agent the light doesn't get reflected by the surface anymore and they get kinda translucent.... :(

Amazing ^^ About the handles, I've seen on many medieval shields the use of clinch nails: you first drill from the front a tiny hole that allows you to not destroy the layers you've put on, hammer in the nail with the flat side perpendicular to the wood fibers (otherwise you split it open), position the leather handle, hammer the nail to make an almost 90° angle and hammer it back in the wood. You then apply a second layer of fabric on the front to hide the nails and reinforce the shield. It is then impossible to pull the handle off. If when drilling the holes the fabric gets off, you can just add glue to put it back but there is a really small risk it happens. You could also drill all the holes before you apply the fabric and pierce it then with a tool, safer but longer.
@TheShieldery9 ай бұрын
Thank you! :) I tried that reaplying_a_second_layer_ontop_of_the_nails and first: we found not a singel shield where this was done and second is my theory why - (caus I tried it once): It's impossible to glue the fabrik/ rawhide to a metal surface like the nails, so you take the risk of a not connectet popint thats large enough to rip a hole in the hole surface when stroken off. And that point is additionally raised from the other parts of the surface, so it will happen quite fast. I do the 90 degrees thing quite often and it usually leavs a clear mark, which you can't see on the museums piece - therefor it wasn't done on this Pavese. Thank's for that suggestion, I thought about adressing that in my video about the large Normann shield, but it led to faar from the main topic, so I didn't.....

@@TheShieldery (I am movementsciences36, this account is for a non profit association about medieval reanactment) Interesting indeed. Though I must disagree about no shield with this method. I've been to many Europeean museums (I'm European), read researched reviews, and even just by researching on internet I've found many shields from museums with clinch nails going through from the front. Usually the head of the nails are hidden under a fabric or in the dark painting. Sometimes they are also left visible. You can make the top of the nails head rough by liming and engraving points/lines: it helps the glue to stick on it. Anyway, we could talk for hours about it as it is enthralling.

I just found your channel Andre, and I'm very impressed- this pavise in particular is brilliant. I have some advice for dealing with areas of canvas or parchment that don't seem to have adhered properly: you can take advantage of the fact that hide glue will soften with a bit of water and heat rather than just adding more glue; use a utility knife to open any air pockets, put in a little water with a small paint brush, and use a heat gun to warm the glue until it's sticky and then just press the canvas down again. The glue is much more sticky when just re-heated than it is when fresh, and it will hold quickly- much moreso than fresh glue will. Also, the museum page doesn't name any of the pigments- did you check with them and they told you the red was cinnabar? I'd have thought red ochre would be a more likely and non-toxic choice .
@TheShieldery10 ай бұрын
they got so many paveses, I doupt they tested the pigments of more then one or two. When the owner spend so much on the Azurite pigment, I assume he also would have gone for cinnabar. There are a lot of ochres, the ones of I know would be way more brownish after 500 years and all the dirt. So the red is way to vibrant for Ochre ( I assume). Yo ucan see an even darker red right on the edge, which looks more like an earth pigment.

You have no idea how much I love this. Here is a tip.... two tips. Use more glue when gluing the Hessisches Tuch. Pre-soak the cloth to make it more malleable. Now you have to wait for it to soak up glue before you can get around corners. Yes, messy and hard, fast work but I think it solves a lot of problems. And use a roller to get the glue worked in to the fabric and fill all those holes. It will surely cut back on de-lamination and prevent those pin holes in your gesso.
@TheShieldery6 ай бұрын
Thank you! :) If I pre soak the fabrik, it gets folds which are very difficult to massage out and the glue won't soak in that good and in addition will be thinned down in the pores where I want it to be. I'm afraid the roller would bring even more air bubbles into the glue becaus it's sticky character creats a high surface tension, which can trap air quickly, especially when cooling down. :( Thanks for the Ideas though!

2:50 Mach dir eine stabile Werkbank und spann das Werkstück gut fest. Dann macht das Hobeln viel mehr Spaß. Zum Hobeln niedrig. Zum Malen hoch. Dann tut der Rücken auch nicht so weh. Und probier die Arbeiten mal mit verschiedenen Handhobeln. Das funktioniert gut. Alte Spezialhobel findest du billig auf ebay und Kleinanzeigen. 3:40 Nutze 2 stabile, gebogene Zulagen. 2 Zwingen drücken aussen . Die Mitte macht das krumme Holz. Auch die Nutzung einer großen, groben Raspel solltest du mal in Erwägung ziehen. Du wirst überrascht sein, wie schnell und präzise das geht. Schlag die zu langen Nägel einfach schief ein. Entgegen der Zugrichtung des Griffs. Das wird wesentlich stabiler. Die Klammern ohne Spitze. Dafür aber dünn vorbohren. Zur Verleimung des Überzugs: Ich würde mal versuchen, in Etappen zu verleimen. Von innen nach aussen. Das Mittelstück, die Kanten und dann den Rest. Auf beiden Seiten immer parallel arbeiten. Bei den Kürschnerstellen (keine Ahnung warum man diese Fehlverleimung so nennt) nutze einfach eine Spritze. Die Holzarbeiten wären für mich als Schreiner leicht zu machen. Hab richtig Lust darauf bekommen......aber bei den Farben bin ich dann wieder raus. Das würd ich nie hinkriegen.

Uhh, ein Experte! danke für dein Feedback, du must ja nicht glaich auf den ersten versuch alles machen, Acrylfarbe ist auch gut genug. Trotzdem schadet es nicht auch mal was neues zu probieren ;) . Farbe herstellen ist sehr ähnlich zur herstellung von eigener Fugenmasse aus Sägespänen. Ich hab keinen Platz für ne gscheite Hobelbank. Dafür ist der Keller zu klein. Ich hab schon nen Kehlhobel und nen guten Stanley (no 4) . Bei Nadelholz mit vielen Astlöchern macht das nicht so spaß und man braucht halt auch skill um erkennen zu können wie die Bretter geschnitten worden sind und in welche Richtung man besser hobeln kann. Das wäre alles zu viel für ein Tutorial über eine Pavese. Der Schild ist mit 120cm ziemlich hoch, da müsste ich mich wenn er senkrecht steht die ganze zeit bücken oder den Arm hoch halten und kann daher die Hand nicht richtig auflegen. Narmalerweise würde ich mich auf einen Stuhl setzen und ihn gemütlich in einem anderen Zimmer bemalen. Das hab ich hier nicht getan, erstens wegen den giftigen Pigmenten und 2. weil ich das Set für das Video nicht wechseln wollte. zu 3:40 ; hab ich probiert, aber da machen die Dübel probleme und sind entweder im Weg oder brauchen mehr Druck um ganz in beiden Planken zu sein und keinen Abstand offen zu halten. Zudem brauchst du auch Keile an der unteren Seite, weil die Zwingen sonst nicht senkrecht aufliegen und abrutschen, was dann trotzdem oft beim zudrehen passiert. Da gehen mir dann die Hände aus und bei caseinleim hast kein großes Zeitfenster in dem du den Pressdruck aufbringen musst. Ich hab schon ne grobe Raspel, aber kann halt das Werkstück nicht gut einspannen. Der Boden in der Werkstatt ist auch uneben, wenn ich ihn an den Böcken festmachen würde, wackeln die wieder und die unebene Oberfäche des Werkstücks machts auch nicht leichter. Das mit den langen Nägeln ist ne gute Idee. es lässt sich halt schwer sagen wie dick der Rohling tatsächlich an der Stelle ist und ab wann man das tun sollte. Bei den Klammern hab ich schon vorgebohrt, aber wenn die Handgeschmiedet sind und ich die Dicke nicht genau weis.... Zur Etappenverleimung; das funktioniert nur mit PVA-leimen, nicht mit gluteinleimen, denn die verlieren einen Großteil ihres Volumens beim trocknen (hier hab ich den Hautleim 1:4 mit wasser eingeweicht) und dabei entstehen große Spannungen. Wenn diese nur einseitig wirken verformt sich der Rohling über Nacht - ich habs ausprobiert- , deshalb sollte die dicke, im Stoffe gebundene Leimschicht auf allen Seiten in etwa zum selben Zeitpunkt aufgebracht werden. Wie stark die Verformung ist hängt auch sehr von der Art der Bretter ab, ob sie eher Kernbretter, oder Schwartenbretter sind, wie sie getrocknet wurden, usw. , worauf man auch achten sollte, wenn man die Bretter anbringt.... alles komplizierte Materie die ich in nem anderen Video über den Bau eines "normalen" Schildes in Plankenbauweise behandeln werde. In der Spritze, speziell in dem dünnen Ende vorne kühlt der Leim zu schnell ab und verstopft die dann. Deshalb müssstest du diese vom warmen Wassr sofort in die Öffnung stecken und einen stehten Fluss aufrecht erhalten, wobei das meiste volumen von dem was du einspritzt beim trocknen eh wieder appanten kommt. Das funzt auch nicht wirklich und wird von mir nur in Ausnahmesituationen gemacht, in denen nichts anderes geht - z.b bei der klar sichtbaren Rückseite der Schongauer Pavesen. Hier geht man besser mit dem Pinsel drüber und lässt den neu aufgetragenen Leim, den alten Leim wieder aufweichen und tränkt denn alles wo viel wie möglich.

@@TheShieldery ich glaube, ich werde auch mal versuchen so ein Schild zu bauen. Wie alle Schreiner hab ich natürlich auch so meine Hobelsammlung....Nostalgie halt. Aber genutzt werden sie nicht. Macht man heute alles mit anderem Werkzeug. Aber bei diesem Schild wären Hobeln und Raspel tatsächlich mal das richtige Werkzeug. Das macht es für mich so interessant. Hobelbank wäre für dich sogar nicht das richtige. Du musst ja von allen Seiten an dein Werkstück. Aber stabile Böcke, die mit dem Boden verankert sind, würden dir extrem helfen. Und dann das Werkstück einfach mit festzwingen. Und wenn es dann an die Feinarbeit geht, machst du dir einfach eine Erhöhung drauf. Kraft/Hobeln niedrig. Feinarbeit/Malen hoch.....dein Rücken wird dir es danken. Die astige Fichte ist zum Hobeln natürlich nicht so dolle. Um zu erkennen, in welche Richtung man hobeln muss, braucht man aber keinen skill. Einfach beide Richtungen probieren. Eine ist meist besser. Das wirkliche Problem ist, die Messer scharf zu bekommen und die Einstellung. Hatten die es früher vorallem bei den Stecheisen auch einfacher (zumindest bis vor 100 Jahren). Der Stahl war härter. Also nahm Schärfen besser. Und stand länger. ...ist aber sehr gerne gebrochen( Astloch, Stemmarbeiten) Zum Verleimen: Mach dir einfach an den Dübelstellen mit einem Forstnerbohrer genügend große Löcher. Deine Zulage könnte dann auch kaum verrutschen. Zwingen richtig anzusetzen ist aber trotzdem eine Kunst. Da hilft nur Erfahrung. Um mehr Druck auszuüben, kannst du auch nochmal quer mit Kanthölzern zwingen. An beliebiger Stelle. Auf der Rückseite must du halt nur mehr unterfüttern. übrigens: Wenn dir deine Bretter beim Verleimen verrutschen, schlag an einer Leimkante mindestens 2 kleine Nägel ein bisschen rein und petzt sie mit der Zange ab, so dass sie etwas überstehen. Dann verrutscht nix mehr. Die Dübel kannst du dann nachträglich einschlagen. Bei der Flächenverleimung gilt: Egal was du machst. Du must es nur auf der anderen Seite auch machen. Du kannst also ruhig nur die Mitte verleimen. Must es dann aber auch gleich auf der anderen Seite machen. Je wärmer die Bude. Und je wärmer das Werkstück, umso mehr Zeit hast du. Bei den Kürschnerstellen würde ich mal probieren, ob mit Heissluftfön gelöst und wieder erstarren lassen funktioniert. Müsste gehen. Ich weiss es aber nicht. Zum Verziehen des Holzes und der Festigkeit: Du wirst heute kaum noch Fichtenholz finden, dass der Qualität des Mittelalters entspricht. Fichte will es eigentlich kalt und nass. Sie gehört ins Gebirge.Auch war es im Miitelalter kälter. Sie wurde bei uns nur überall angepflanzt, weil sie unter den warmen Bedingungen schnell wächst. Aber deshalb auch ein grottenschlechtes Nutzholz ist. (und weil angepflanzt wurde, wo sie nicht hingehört, gibt es heute auch Borkenkäfer und Waldsterben) Ich hab mal die Jahresringe an einem alten Telegraphenmast aus dem 19 Jahrhundert gezählt. Und dann mit einem neuen gleichen Umfangs verglichen. 183 zu 56. Die hatten früher also wesentlich weniger Probleme mit Verzug. Und das Schild war wesentlich stabiler. Warum ist eigentlich dieser Nocken an dem Schild? Ich dachte zuerst, der wäre um es zu tragen. Oder auf dem Boden zu stellen. Aber das kann ja so nicht sein. Dass du dein Video auf Englisch machst, kann ich verstehen. Aber es wäre nett, wenn du deutsche Untertitel zufügen würdest. Denn gerade bei den technischen Sachen bin ich sicher nicht der einzige, der mit seinem bescheidenem Englisch da Probleme hat.

Die Holzqualität hat schon merklich nachgelassen, aber dafür sind die Preise explodiert XD. Moderne Fichte zu hobeln ist ein Pain in the Ass und um die Astlöcher bricht zumindest mir immer was aus und dann muss ich eh wieder mit der Fächerscheibe drüber. Die Strategie die du zum verleimen Vorschlägst kommt mir doch wesentlich aufwändiger vor, als meine. Wenn man die Löcher von meinem sehen würde, wäre deine besser, aber ansonsten... Wenn du willst kannst ja deine Idee auf einer Seite der Pavese und meine auf der anderen probieren. mit nur zwei Hauptdruckpunkten muss man auch noch viel genauer hobeln... Wenn du's in Etappen verleimst hast halt noch mehr Trockenphasn und wenn du dann feststellen würdest, dass du doch mehr Stoff an einer Stelle brauchst bist gearscht. Dir gehen auch Optionen verloren. Wenn der Hautleim noch feucht ist, dann kannst es auch mit dem Heisluftfön probieren, aber wenn der Leim wärmer als 60 grad wird, verliert er dauerhaft an Festigkeit, weil sich die langen gluteinketten zersetzen. Deshalb lieber nur mit noch mehr leim. Ist auch schneller und trocknet dabei vorallem nicht auch passiv den Leim - was es wiederum nur schwerer machet ihn zu lösen. Der Sinn hinter der Nocke/Nase ist nicht genau bekannt. Es gibt verschiedene Theorien u.a: - besserer Auflagepunkt für Armbrust o.ä. - Zusätzliche Möglichkeit zum Greifen - Es verstärkt Querschnitt, speziell am stärker beanspruchten oberen Ende. Untertitel hinzufügen ist ein riesen Aufwand. Bis mir jemand Geld dafür gibt ( => Patreon ) werd ich's sicher nicht machen. Bei dem Video wären das 8h min und den KZbin-Algorythmus würde das nicht kümmern, also bekomme ich dadurch nicht mehr klicks. Die meisten Fachausdrücke erschließen sich außerdem aus dem Zusammenhang. Wenn ich electric planer sage und danach den Elektrohobel in der Hand hab, wird es klar.

I find it a bit funny the Pavese is to my knowledge the precursor of the modern riot shield. So oddly enough, the design is still in use hundreds of years later. Albeit with some changes for modernity. Regardless though, it turned out to be a beautiful shield. Great job!

I'm unsure why youtube recommended this video (it's super random) But I'm sincerely glad. It was a delight to watch the process you went through with this shield and while I'll probably never attempt anything like this it was super cool hearing the why's and how's related to everything you were doing. Thank you for sharing (:

great video! i think using modern pigments is fine as long as the intent is the same, and given how much effort you go into making the rest accurate i'm sure its fine! one thing though: i wish the reveal was longer! i wanted more time to look at the shield! this is an old video though so ill have to check out your newest ones :)

Great video. The shield you made is gorgeous. Thank you for showing us the proces. I'd like to make something like this in miniature for the armoury in my 1/12 scale Castle Tower dollhouse I'm building at the moment. Thanks! Edit: And I subscribed of course!!

The reason the sound was different (timestamp 11:28) is because that's the part that's over the other piece. The first piece where you thumped it, it was a thinner portion. The second part, it was overlapped, so the the sound was going to be .. lower. A thinner surface will resonate more easily and have a higher pitch.
