    Myra, there is only a page of epee because the photographer was only there on 2 days, Saturday and Tuesday, might be why you didnt see him Pier. How did you go BTW?

    Here's a pix of my humble fencing club:

    First Place Fencing Club

    How's it look? Three strips, no problems. Expandable in the future to more strips.

    EDew, I do so love the heap of blades. There's something amusing about that, though I'm unsure what. Besides the image of the poor soul who gets the "rewire these" punishment.

    "All of them?"

    "All of them!"

    Sounds like a bad episode of Karate Kid the TV show. Mr. Miagi decides to give on karate and teach fencing. Daniel son goes along but sulks about the change the entire episode. Later on, he decides Mr. Miagi was right and fencing IS a lot of fun.
    "Daniel son. Rewires the blades." - who would of thought the Mr. Miagi's blade rewiring technique (all one motion) is ALSO the perfect flick. "Wire Off. Wire On..."

    It looks pretty good Eric. I'd love to come check it out sometime!
    • Epee is the Louis Vuitton bag of fencing: only the best can get it, and the rest of the masses must content themselves with cheap knockoffs (sabre, foil)
    • To not recognize the power of the French grip is to be in denial

    I found the same thing, too. The Close This Window control on the page wasn't working. I had to ctrl-alt-del and kill that instance of my browser.

    When I get my second club, I'll call it Second-Place Fencing Club. Once I start franchising, I'd hate to be the one who owns the 164th club.

    The paintings were done by me. The broken blades are woven into a nice little lattice of broken blades. Will be mounted on a wall as an artwork.
